Not too long ago, Yujun and I took part in the first international Tata Crucible Business Quiz. Designed to challenge the best and the brightest, we thought, hey, might as well try our luck.

Around 159 two person teams from various universities took part (all three Singaporean universities, SIM, Australian and British universities etc). It turned out that we did pretty well in the prelims and ended up as one of the top 8 pairs. This meant we got to go up on stage for the final round which will be broadcasted in Channel News Asia. We performed quite badly in the finals, but in all honestly, our opponents from SMU and SIM were way superior. Yujun and I pocketed a cool iPod video nano, Nikon digital camera and a Titan watch each in the process.

Apart from this, friends Ramkumar and Adrian were also selected as the best 9th to 16th place finisher. All these teams were behind the 8th place team in the prelims by one point. Competition was that tough. Adrian managed to more-or-less save the 25 prelim questions here. Have a look at it and see how you fare. Yujun and I got 21 right.
