The simulation will be divided into two main sessions:

• Morning Session: Teams will make decisions and earn scores based on their performance.
• Afternoon Session: The simulation continues with new scenarios, and additional scores will be accumulated.

          At the end of both sessions, total scores will be calculated, and the top 6 highest-scoring teams will advance to the final round. In the final round, selected teams will deliver a presentation explaining their business strategies and decision-making processes to a panel of judges. Final rankings will be determined based on the combined scores from the MBS simulation and the presentation.
