The duo from Ashoka Univ. looked a shade better prepared than the others, given their reaction time and the confidence with which they answered. The other teams quickly realised it would be a battle for the second place and started changing their strategy accordingly.
The duo from Dehradun took too many chances and that knocked them down by too many ‘crubits’ to be able to recover. The MIET team from Jammu had a good chance and kept at it while St. Stephan’s were just ahead of them. It was a nervous final few questions that got the boys from St. Stephen’s to make it to their first ever national final.
