Hello,
I would like to know how the competition will be carried out, since it will help me prepare myself. Will we be subjected to a sort of written exam? Or will we have to answer questions orally? Are those competing in English separated by those competing in French?
Thank you in advance, Good day.

Hello dantam! Here is the breakdown of how the competition is going to happen: 1. The first leg of the competition will be a written neuroanatomy quiz in English or French (multiple choice/short answers). 2. Students will be split into small groups according their preferred language for a second round of questions in oral quiz format (true or false/ short answers). 3. The scores from the written and oral quizzes will be compiled and the top 6 students will compete in the final question round which will be bilingual. 4. The competition will end with an award presentation. Does that answer your question? Let us know if there's anything else that needs clarification

Thank you. That does clarifiy things! I do have a few more questions. At around what time will the competition start and end? Are parents aloud to come? And also, if some of the students at my school wish to come simply as spectators or to encourage those participating, can they? Thank you

Sorry dantam, I made a mistake in my last post regarding spectators.
There is a registration process for spectators, it is included in the student registration.
Registered spectators may attend the entire day. There is a limit of 2 spectators per class.
Unregistered spectators are welcome after 3PM. (During the final round and prize ceremony.)

Bonsoir, J'ai enregistré 6 candidates pour mon école car j'ai deux groupes(3 en français, 3 en anglais) mais d'autres élèves auraient aimé assiter. Je ne comprends pas bien votre réponse à Dantam (mon élève) quand vous dites qu'il y a une limite de 2 spectateurs par classe, voulez-vous dire par groupe ou par école? Dans notre cas, on nous a demandé d'être deux accompagnateurs adultes car nous avons deux groupes de trois. Serait-il possible d'inviter une élève spectatrice supplémentaire par groupe? Est-ce que c'est cela que vous voulez dire? (Et dans ce cas comment procédé?)
