It's Academic format: See http://www.geocities.com/Athens/Aegean/4992/itvshow.html.

The point value of each question decreases from a maximum of 10 depending on how long it takes to answer. If the first answer given is incorrect, the team can try again for 2 points. The team's score is reported to Academic Hallmarks and compared to the scores of other schools. For more information, see http://www.greatuk.com/kmo.html.

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.

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.
