      I think you asked the wrong question. Perhaps you should have asked yourself whom you would want to win, bearing in mind that whoever wins, it is you (the pupils) who win because the money is to be spent on the “project” that the winner has already described. So, I don’t want to win; rather, I want the best project to win so that you pupils will be better inspired by engineering.

      I’m super competitive, and so I’ve just got to win. I’ve already answered 100’s of questions, so surely I’ll win?!!

      Winning is always satisfying. But on this occasion I am actually really glad to take part. My main objective of taking part in this is to give a better idea to students like yourself of what engineering is (or can be). And hopefully motivate you to do it, but only if it is the right thing for you. So I am very glad that there have been so many questions, hopefully our answers have helped a lot of you to decide what you think about engineering. So I feel already as a winner.
