TRIVIA Tuesday

  • 1.  TRIVIA Tuesday

    Posted 01-04-2022 08:21:00 AM
    Today is World Trivia Day! So it makes sense for us to hold our very first AAMC Community trivia contest. 

    We will be posting a new trivia question each week in the polls, here in the Open Forum, which you can find along the right side of your screen, by scrolling down. Polls are just under Announcements and Events (keep scrolling down, I promise it's there - just make sure you're in the Open Forum section of the community).

    The first poll is ready to go - so go check it out, and click on the answer. (See screenshot below, but you need to find it and click your answer and submit it in the poll).

    Where do I find that poll?

    Submit your answer by 8:00 pm Eastern on Monday, January 10 (and each subsequent Monday to participate). All respondents with correct answers will be entered into a drawing for a prize. And a special “first-in” prize goes to the very first person to submit all 4 correct answers. 

    • Watch each Tuesday of this month for a new trivia question poll post and submit your answer.
    • Winners will be posted (as well as correct answers) at the end of the month.

    Hint: Some answers can be found in older posts in this very community.

    Congratulations to our Trivia Winners!


    @Roleithia Mills-Perry was our speediest response and winner of our top prize  - a $100 Amazon digital gift card (look for it coming to your Inbox on Wednesday, Roleithia!) - she got all four questions right and answered them all first!


    @Susanna Martiin is our winner of a $50 Amazon digital gift card for participating in the trivia contest throughout the month. She had a good chance, given that she participated three times throughout the month.

A special shout out to: @Paul McDermott, @Carolyn Pointer, @Thea Mallini, @Katie Maietta, @Kiran Brar, @Miriam Hoffman, @Joyce Rambo and @Elisabeth Kunkel
