When I was in middle school, we had a
Brainbusters league...QuizBowl for middle school.(I'm now a
junior in high school)
The middle school
questions concentrated more on school-based knowledge - 6th
graders learn about types of rocks, a Brainbusters
question would ask for the name of a particularly famous
stone - let's say, blah blah this stone in Ireland,
famous for kissing.... (Ans: Blarney Stone)
The
questions are generally shorter than regular QB questions
just because it's harder to follow a paragraph-long
question.
