What's In a Game Packet |
The following is a list of topic categories used in HCASC
game packets and the approximate distribution of questions
in each category. The distribution of questions in each game
does vary slightly, so as to keep each game unique. The content
distribution does not change materially between the campus,
national championship round robin and national championship
playoff games, but the questions are progressively more difficult.
We do maintain a target distribution of topics within this
range:
