Registration

Registration is done online and is based on a first-come-first-served basis. The cost of the competition is $8 per person and the event will take place over Zoom. Registration is limited to a certain number of participants and the system will close once all spots are filled. Team Formation
Teams of four to five students from different schools will be formed. If you do not register wi

th a team, you will be paired with other participants. There will be an attempt to match student profiles in order to create synergies throughout the case cracking period. It is as well a great opportunity to meet their potential future classmates! Nine teams will be formed and divided into three groups, which will participate in the activities on a rotational basis. There will be an opportunity to meet current Desautels students and ask questions about their programs, courses, and life at McGill. Cracking the Case
Three hours will be given to students to crack the case. A Desautels Ambassador will be there to guide the students and answer any questions they may have. Ambassadors, however, will not be assisting the students with the preparation of the case. Presentations
Each team will present one after the other in their respective groups, and each group will
successively present. Every team will have the opportunity to sit in and listen to two other
presentations in addition to their own. Presentations are 10 minutes in duration with a 5-minute question and answer period. Judges, including faculty professors, alumni, and business leaders will be present to evaluate the teams and give expert feedback to students regarding their presenting skills. Networking & Communication Activity
These activities are workshops that concentrate on communication skills and networking. While the others are cracking the case or presenting, Course Counselors are going to introduce the participants to basic topics which students at Desautels learn about in management. These workshops demonstrate some of the different skills we work on during our years at Desautels. Cocktail + Closing Ceremony
A cocktail will be provided at the closing ceremony of the event. Prizes will be given to the winning teams, while students will be able to share their thoughts about the competition with the judges and McGill students. In addition, ambassadors will be present to answer any questions regarding McGill university application and student life.
