LEVELS OF HEXCO GEO PRODUCTS

FOUNDATIONS INTERMEDIATE ADVANCED
This collection of 1000  school-level multiple-choice questions was written and organized for the novice to the experienced competitor. Used by the 2006 National Geographic Bee Champion, Bonny Jain and by the 2008 Champion Akshay Rajagopal, Hexco's foundations geography product(s) challenge the nation’s most astute geography students. Thoroughly mastering these "basics" are paramount to moving on; they provide a foundation that tougher, muilt-layer questions build upon. Containing 650 multi-layered questions, Hexco’s Intermediate level products mimic the type of questions found at state-level competitions and the National Geographic Bee. Because more facts and clues are woven into questions, students who have spent quite a bit of time memorizing facts can transition into "thinking through" these complicated questions. This level of study assists in rounding-out the knowledge base of serious geography students, and is also appropriate for advanced competitors who are interested in filling gaps in their own geo fact bank.

These questions are for students who are already proficient in geography and are aiming for the top rungs of the National Geographic Bee. Advanced content boasts a high level of difficulty and presents 500 well-crafted, multi-layered questions. These are a notably obscure conglomeration of facts associated with various countries; they mirror the type of questions found at the National Geographic Bee. Clues in details of these questions can also help identify new terrain for students to explore and pursue.
