The competition
The Asia Spelling Cup consists of two parts, the Pre-Selection process and the finals
Pre-selection process
The pre-selection process is done online and via mobile, using testing software developed and provided by Qooco.[10]
After completing the online tests, students are ranked by score, with the top students chosen for the finals. Pre-selection rounds regularly exceed 100,000 applicants.[11]
Finals
The finals are usually held in a major city in Southeast Asia, in a hotel conference room or resort.
The Finals are split into two parts, the first part is the Primary school level competition, and the second part is the Secondary school level competition.[1]
