The National Science and Maths Quiz always comes with excitement. Presec Legon, Adisadel College and Prempeh College are all in the finals of this year’s edition of National Science and Maths Quiz 2022.
Prempeh College will have a chance to defend the National Science and Maths Quiz (NSMQ) trophy in the grand finale after their victory in the first semifinal contest.
They now stand a chance of equalling two records set by Presec Legon; that is winning the trophy back-to-back and winning it for the sixth time. Can PRESEC raise their seventh trophy?
What about ADISCO? Will they secure a second win after five years? Check the regional results here.
