ECEEvent Round Details
The duration of this round is 40 minutes. Topics covered include logical reasoning, basic science and mathematics, data interpretation, basic programming, Boolean algebra, computational thinking, and tech trivia. It is a two-section challenge: Section 1 features 30 technical MCQs, and Section 2 features mind-bending tech puzzles.
- Do's:
- All team members must be present at the venue before the round begins.
- Teams must attempt both sections of the round.
- Teams must submit their answers before the allotted time expires.
- Read each question carefully and mark only the intended answer.
