|
| Aim |
To commit to memory and recall as many random
words as possible. |
| Time to Memorise |
15 minutes |
| Time to Recall |
20 minutes |
| Question Paper |
-
A list of words (nouns, verbs and adjectives see Annex F) organised in
columns of 25 with 5 columns to a page.
-
3 Pages of words (375) are provided.
-
Contestants must start at the first word of column 1 and remember as many
of the words as possible.
|
| Answer Paper |
-
Contestants must write down the list of words on the paper provided (sample
answer sheet at Annex G.)
-
Contestants may use blank paper if they wish but each word must be clearly
numbered and the start and finish of each column of words easily identifiable.
|
| Scoring |
-
A point is awarded for every word in a complete column where all 25 words
are correctly spelt.
-
One mistake (including any gaps) in a column of 25 words gives a score
of 13 for that column (25/2 rounded up).
-
Two or more mistakes (including any gaps) in a column of 25 words scores
0 for that column.
FOR THE FINAL COLUMN ONLY
-
If the final column is partially complete, a point is awarded for each
word if every one is correctly spelt.
-
If the final column is partially complete, one mistake (including any gaps)
in the partial column means the points awarded will equal half the number
of words recalled. (For an odd number of words the fraction is rounded
up eg for 19 words and one mistake, the score would be 19/2 rounded up
equals 10).
-
Two or more mistakes (including any gaps) will score 0 for the column.
