Ankush Bajaj is a student at Brown. He previously was the leading scorer on the A team for Hinsdale Central High School. He was named a member of the First team for the 2016 HSQBRank All-World Teams.

2012-2013

Ankush immediately joined Scholastic Bowl and made a very strong impression on everyone. He established himself as a decent JV player with potential to represent Hinsdale Central as an A team member during later seasons.

2013-2014

Ankush was undoubtedly one of the more committed members of the Hinsdale Central quiz bowl team. His development as a literature player greatly strengthened the team, and marked the beginning of Hinsdale Central's emergence out of mediocrity.

2014-2015

Following a disappointing personal performance at the 2014 HSNCT, Ankush decided to step up his studying over the summer and try to lock down all literature, biology, and chemistry. His progression from a decent literature and science specialist to a competent generalist allowed him to lead Hinsdale to a 2nd-place finish at the 2015 NAQT Illinois State Championship and a T-8th finish at the 2015 HSNCT.

2015-2016

Ankush helped lead Hinsdale Central to a T-8th finish at the 2016 HSNCT and a 4th-place finish at the 2016 NSC. He helped Team Illinois to a first-place finish at the 2016 NASAT.

2016-2020

Ankush continued to play quizbowl at Brown, though not as actively as in high school; he did not participate in any national tournaments.
