MindSweep and MegaWhats on 11 May 2025

The KQA is pleased to announce the return of its annual multi-city written open quizzing championships, Mindsweep and Megawhats.

Both quizzes will be conducted on Sunday, 11th May, 2025 in various cities.

Mindsweep, the international solo quizzing championship, is a written quiz for solo participants that will require takers to answer around 200 questions in two back-to-back sessions of 75 min each. The quiz will commence at 10.30 AM IST.

MindSweep is set by a team led by Dr Arul Mani.

Registration form and further details are here.

Megawhats, the national team quizzing championship, is a written quiz for teams of up to four that will commence at 3.30 PM IST. Do note that the top winners of Megawhats will also be invited to take part in the Megawhats National Final on June 27 at AsKQAnce 2025.

Registration form and further details are here.

MegaWhats is set by a team led by Thejaswi Udupa.

Venue details for each city will be notified soon. The venue in Bangalore is IAT, Queen’s Road.

If your location isn’t listed and you would like your city to conduct Mindsweep and Megawhats, or for any clarifications, please write to Hrishi Varma at kqaquizzes@gmail.com The more the merrier, and the only reason your city is not yet on the list is that the organising details have not yet been ironed out with the local quiz club so lean on them and tell them to get their act together

Prior registration is required for both quizzes, so please register at the earliest using the links mentioned above, and do spread the word.

RESULTS & RANKINGS – MindSweep 2024

UPDATED 9 JUNE: Bhubaneswar scores have now been added. Our apologies. Certain individuals in our team have been struggling with the concept of MS Excel.

We’re happy to announce the results of MindSweep 2024. Apologies for the small delay: a couple of centres took their own sweet time in sending in the scores, and the person responsible for posting the results online may or may not have forgotten about it.

Now, to weightier matters: Jayakanthan R of Chennai, the reigning MahaQuizzer, tops MindSweep with 103 . JK was also part of the team that topped the MegaWhats — lending credence to the theory that he may just be good at this sort of thing — our congratulations to him.

Rajiv Rai of Mumbai finished a close second, with 101. Prithwish Datta, also of Mumbai, was next with 99.

Unfortunately, the proctor in Singapore forgot to note down the section-wise scores. The total scores are presented below.

Piyush Kedia topped the College category with 71 points. Aninthitha Nath of Mumbai topped the Women’s category with 40 points. The category toppers are as follows:

Arts: Rajiv Rai, Mumbai, 18

Movies & TV: Prithwish Datta, Mumbai, 16

Food & Beverages: Santosh JS, Bengaluru, 15

Literature: Prithwish Datta, Mumbai, 16

Music: Jayakanthan R, Chennai, 13

The Sciences: Jayakanthan R & Dinesh Krithivasan, both from Chennai, 17

The Social Sciences: Jayakanthan R, Chennai, 18

Sports: Sachin Deshpande, Bengaluru, 14

Once again, a big thank you to all the quiz organisations, proctors, participants, and our quiz setters. See you in 2025!

If your location isn’t listed and you would like your city to conduct Mindsweep and Megawhats, or for any clarifications, please write to Hrishi Varma at kqaquizzes@gmail.com The more the merrier, and the only reason your city is not yet on the list is that the organising details have not yet been ironed out with the local quiz club so lean on them and tell them to get their act together

Prior registration is required for both quizzes, so please register at the earliest using the links mentioned above, and do spread the word.
