KMO format:
Using a disk which is mailed to participating teams, questions and five
possible answers are displayed on the screen. The point value of each question
decreases from a maximum of 10 depending on how long it takes to answer. If the

buzzer per team (sometimes two) and conferral is permitted at all times. An incorrect
answers causes a deduction of the question’s value; an incorrectly answered
question may not be answered by any other teams.
Entrance restrictions: "Varsity only" means only one team per
school can enter. "JV" in this box means that all players must be in
grades 9 or 10 unless otherwise noted; however, some tournaments with JV
divisions do NOT require that JV players be underclassmen; these tournaments
will not have "JV" in the entrance restrictions box. Teams may only
play once on each NAQT invitational set; see NAQT’s schedule page for information on which set is being used for which
tournament.

all-stars from various schools in the state or may represent a single school.
NAQT:
Winners of all official NAQT events and most unofficial events using NAQT
questions qualify for the NAQT High School Championship Tournament. NAQT also
accepts several automatic qualifiers from each NAQT state championship (roughly
the top ten percent of the field). NAQT also accepts, at its discretion, as
many at-large qualifiers as are needed to fill the national field, with
preference given to teams which did well at events using NAQT questions.
PACE: The
top two teams of officially designated PACE affiliate tournaments with fields
of less than forty teams qualify for the PACE National Scholastics
Championship. The top four teams of officially designated PACE affiliate
tournaments with fields of forty or more teams qualify for the PACE National
Scholastics Championship. PACE also accepts at-large qualifiers at its
discretion, with preference given to teams which finished highly but out of
contention for automatic bids at PACE affiliate events. The top 4 teams from
each PACE NSC qualify for the next year's NSC.
