IMS IQ 2008 gets bigger and better!

What is it about the IQ that guarantees its sequels bigger success than movie sequels?
Let’s begin with the quiz format. The IQ quiz rounds deviate from the standard routine of plain questions and answers. IQ Quizmasters, particularly the renowned Quizmaster Charanpreet, keep participants riveted in between the quizzing with interesting facts and trivia, friendly ragging and yes, generous servings of crazy humour.

The IQ quiz environment too breaks away from the conventional auditorium format. For instance, IQ 2007 had its Semi-Finals and National Finals on board the luxury cruise liner Superstar Libra en route to Goa. IQ 2008 is set to give students an even bigger high, with its locale for the Semis and Finals. The National University of Singapore.

Finally, the IQ rewards. IQ 2008 has in store grander prizes like a trip to Singapore, snazzy bikes, cool laptops, tours to destinations like Goa, Jaipur etc., ipods and more. National fame is another coveted reward. The Grand Finale of the quiz will be telecast on CNBC.

The scale of India’s biggest intercollegiate quiz is evident not just from the number of participating colleges 500 in 2006,750 in 2007, 1000 expected in 2008 but also the profile of sponsors participating to interface with students. IQ 2008 has the following entities partnering it: DHL, Singapore Tourism Board, TVS, Education Times, Pagalguy.com, CNBC, Welingkar Institute for Management Education and The Hindu.

IQ was conceived in 2006 by IMS – India’s fourth most trusted educational brand, with the twin-objective of nurturing the thirst for knowledge in collegians and giving a platform to smart collegians to showcase their smarts to the world. With the first two editions of IQ, IMS has succeeded in sparking the interest for acquiring knowledge amongst students, which will only help them better shape their careers and lives. Consider IQ 2008 another reminder from IMS to the student fraternity to keep the process of knowledge enrichment going.

IQ 2008 will make a grand opening on the 13th Jan, 2008 at two venues, Pune and Nasik. The quiz will hit other chosen cities eventually to handpick the smart city teams. To be crowned as the country’s smartest collegians, participants in teams of 3 will have to outperform other smarties in 5 levels with the difficulty level rising along each progressive level. 12 of the India’s smartest collegians will battle it out for the National honours at the National University of Singapore-one of the world’s leading business education schools. The team that gets recognized as the ‘Smartest Collegian Trio’ will get national fame with the telecast of the Grand Finale on CNBC.
