GBS JETS Team Earns 3rd

Congratulations to the the GBS team of Andrew Jacobs, Michael Tarczon, Alec Zimmer, and Jaehyun Cho competed in an event called the JETS TEAMS competition at IIT in Wheaton on Wednesday, February 11, 2009.

Out of 12 teams they finished 3rd in answering 80 multiple choice questions in 1.5 hrs concerning many different scientific areas focusing on theme parks. After lunch they competed in another 1.5 hr session where they responded to "free response" type questions where they had to solve problems and provide written solutions. These will be graded later and compared to every team across the country.

Congratulations again!
