The Challenge offers two participation tracks this year: in-person and virtual.
 

  • In-Person: Teams participating in-person must first take the Qualifier to advance to the in-person Regional Challenge. Please see the Challenge Tracks for more information.
  • Both Tracks: Teams compete in the in-person or virtual Regional Challenge answering timed multiple-choice and short-answer questions. Teams will also create a video exploring chemistry concepts in this year’s theme. Regional Challenge and video scores are weighted to determine state winners and national finalists! Teams must be composed of 3-4 students.
