Since the inception of the National Science and Mathematic Quiz (#NSMQ) in 1994, only a few schools have emerged as winners.
PRESEC Legon is the most successful school in the history of the NSMQ, having won it seven times more than any other school.
To qualify for the national competition, a school must compete in district, zonal, and regional tournaments and earn a significant number of points.
The goal of the competition, with the exception of the trolls and bragging rights that define the rivalry, is to challenge these young children’s cognitive abilities in an effort to advance the study of Science, Mathematics, and Technology.
Prempeh College was the first school to win the trophy since the competition’s inception in 1994. However, institutions such as Presec Legon, Persco, and Mfantispim School have made significant strides.
Presec Legon has the most awards, with seven, followed by Prempeh, who has five, and Persco, who has three.
Presec Legon defeated Adisadel College and Prempeh College to win the most recent competition, the 2022 NSMQ, today.
