Choice of a career should be made when a student is well informed. The purpose of the digest, 'The Nail' is to encourage students to readd and write, scientific articles. In this direction, a quiz competition is organized to further motivate students in the quest for science knowledge. <br>The quiz will be from general science (not confined to any curriculum). Questions may include fields such as (not limited to) science innovations and inventions, science history, environmental science and climate change, genetics and biotechnology, science of everyday phenomena, earth and geological science, astrophysics and space exploration, forensic and criminal science, energy and renewable sources, robotics and artificial intelligence, nanotechnology, marine and ocean science etc. <br>The first phase of the quiz is a selection round. Four (04) students above the age of 14 and under the age of 19 shall form a group (can be of any combination), with the help of an advisor (School Teacher). A maximum of three team can participate from a school.
