What it takes

PwC launched the xTREME Games in 2002, to increase students' exposure to professional services and the world of public accounting. Since then, the games have grown substantially, with more than 85 schools involved, more than 3,000 teams comprising 15,000 participants, and $1.5 million in prize money awarded. Over the years, more than 150,000 hours have been logged to the xTREME Games by competing students. The xTREME Games continue to have a significant impact on our participants, helping them to better understand the vast career opportunities in public accounting and connecting them with professionals in the industry. The characteristics that winning teams exhibit are critical thinking, presentation skills, teamwork, and time management.
