Economics Challenge

The Economics Challenge is a one-day contest in which secondary students compete as team members and as individuals for prizes based on their knowledge of economics. The National Competition in New York City on May 22-24, 2004 will feature winning teams from four regional economics challenges. One of the four regional competitions, The Heartland Region, will be held in Bloomington, Minn., on April 25. Winning teams from seven other states will meet on April 25 to determine which teams advance to the national event.

During the first three rounds of competition, students are tested in four areas: macroeconomics, microeconomics, current events/economic applications and international economics. The final round is a timed quiz-bowl play-off between the top two teams in each of two divisions. The first team to answer a majority of the questions read wins.
