The Quizbowl Resource Center

I suppose it depends on what you count as true studying. If you mean encountering material that has direct quizbowl implications, than I would say 1-2 hours on the average day outside of school. If you mean reading archives, articles, and seriously playing protobowl, than I would say 4-6 per week

Ah, I see. Thanks.

One more question: Why was hunger games and King considered lit while Christie was assigned as misc?

I do agree that the history was somewhat faint. Even though I am by no means a history expert, it may have contained the most obscure/difficult answerlines.

Myth has a belonging in the question distribution, but it is very debatable on where it should be placed.

Even when playing in the aforementioned manner, I see no problem with going in with a 90% sureness. From my experience, at that perce...

I've recently been looking to fill our team's largest gap, science. While wikipedia, packets, and protobowl all seem to be suitable for literature, art, etc., it seems as if science is a whole other language. Granted, wikipedia has done a decent job with laws and cell structure, it still seems like ...
