Originally the winners were announced as shown below. However, the scoring sheets had the wrong answers for 2 question and didn't match the key and so these rankings were incorrect.
1st place - Chris Whelan and Kenneth Maassen
2nd place - Sean Dai and Jea Du Kim
3rd place - Matt Synder

This event will be from 9:30am - 12:00pm in the College of Computing (CCB) rooms 016, 017, 101, and 102. Directions to the College of Computing can be found here: http://coweb.cc.gatech.edu/ice-gt/343. This event is open to 9th-12th grade students who are in an AP CS A course and/or who will take the AP C A exam. Students must register to attend. Register here: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/APBowl2013. You must register to attend so that we will know how many tests to print. Registration will close Tues April 9th at 9:00pm.

We will probably give away at least $3,000 this year. We will give prizes to the top 5 finishers and the rest of the prizes will be raffled off to the rest of the students who take the practice exam.

This will be a paper-based multiple choice test similar to the AP CS A multiple choice part. There will be 40 questions and students will have 75 minutes to complete the exam.

Teachers do not have to attend in order for the students to attend. There will be an information session for parents while the students are taking the exam.

Students should bring a pen or pencil and a water bottle.

For information from 2012 see http://coweb.cc.gatech.edu/ice-gt/1846.
