Welcome to the QB Canon site!
You may be asking yourself, "What's a canon?" Simply put, the canon is the set of topics which can reasonably be asked about in quizbowl, based on past frequency. For a better explanation of the concept and the surrounding controversy, see QBWiki.
The numbers by the categories are the number of tossups and bonus that you can expect to see in each NAQT Invitational Series packet, as listed here. These are just meant as a guide to studying, and should not be taken as canon themselves.
We have all of our content organized into four main categories:
- Science (6.5 / 6.3)
- History (5.7 / 5.6)
- Arts and Humanities (4.2 / 3.9)
- Literature (4.0 / 3.8)
