Daniel James Agsaullo Molina. The codenames shall be up to 10 characters only. Also, with
your codename, tell whether you are a student, an engineer who practices their profession
in the field, or an instructor/professor. Any member may join during the span of quiz.
3. Answers shall be sent in order according to the arrangement of questions and on or
before the deadline of submission. The contestants may send their answers private
message on any of the admins enumerated at No. 2.
4. The quiz is composed three categories namely Easy, Average, and Difficult. The number
of questions and points each question are enlisted as follows.

Category Number of Questions Points per Correct Answer

Easy 15 2
Average 10 3
Difficult 6 5

5. The points will be summed up to determine the total score of every contestant. The
codenames of top ⌈√ ⌉, where N is the number of contestants, will proceed the written
oral round (hosted by Daniel James Agsaullo Molina)
