The continuous quizzing award is given to graduating high school seniors who have quizzed for a minimum of 4 years. Generally quizzers that start in 7th grade can quiz for 6 years before they graduate. Since 2009, quizzers that are younger than 19 on Jan 1st of the year of convention can still participate in quizzing even after high school graduation. Also, some quizzing programs start earlier than 7th grade, so it is possible to quiz for 8, or in some cases, 9 years.
