Are You Ready to Compete in Residents Bowl 2025?

Residents Bowl 2025Who will unseat the 2024 Residents Bowl Champ, the University of South Florida, at Plastic Surgery The Meeting 2025?

The one-of-a-kind competition pits resident programs against each other as residents answer questions on case studies and the core curriculum of plastic surgery.

Each program may submit one team, consisting of a minimum of 2 and a maximum of 4 players, to compete in person only. All participants must be both Resident subscribers of ASPS and registered for PSTM25 in person. Team signups will begin in July. Registration is available on a first-come, first-served basis, so be prepared.

How to Play

The games consist of 10 multiple-choice questions, with the final championship game consisting of 15 questions. Each member of the team will answer every question individually, and the scoring will be based on having the correct answer as well as how quickly the question was answered.

Team members will be seated together and may consult with one another before answering, but the quicker you answer, the more points you are awarded! At the end of each round, each of the team members' scores will be averaged together to get an overall team score. If the two teams competing do not have the same number of players, we will only factor in the scores of the smaller number of players. For example, if a team of 4 is playing a team of 2, only the top 2 scores from each team will be factored into the average overall team score for that game. The team with the higher total score will win the game and advance to the next round.

After the final round on Sunday morning, the winners are crowned and have their names engraved on a nearly two-foot-tall silver trophy, along with earning year-long bragging rights.
