NSMQ 2023 Semi-Final Contest

The National Science and Maths Quiz (NSMQ) 2023 Semi-Final Contest 1 was held today October 19. Achimota SHS won the contest with a final score of 41 points

Today’s semi-final contest was predicted to be a tough one for all schools. Primetime, the brain behind this competition, which is marking three years of existence, expects nothing but fireworks. In a post to usher us all into the semi-finals mood, the NSMQ tweeted, “We are here again! Here to witness the best contests ever! To some, it will be history. To some, nothing else will matter. Whatever it is, we will be here! One quiz and a dream!”

The competing schools for the first spot in the finals are Wesley Girls High School, Achimota School, and St. Louis SHS. This contest promises to be an agenda for the all-girls schools as two of such schools, Wesley Girls High School and St. Louis SHS come face to face will Achimota.

Has an all-girls School Ever Won The NSMQ before?

In the 30 years of the NSMQ, no girl’s school has ever won the competition. It is hoped that the two girls’ schools will force Achimota out of the contest early enough and battle it all out for the single spot in the finals.

St. Louis SHS have been giant killers in this edition of the quiz and have dispatched Adisco and overconfident Ashanti Regional NSMQ champions. However, their magic was cut off by Achimota who took an early lead in round one and continued through the contest.

NSMQ 2023 Semi-Final Contest 1 Today – Prediction

St. Louis SHS was tipped by our NSMQ pundits to make it into the finals of the contest after fierce competition if Philipa Afiryie Ennuson and Faizatu Mbo Abu Safianu have a good day and prove to be a great pair of quality and well-composed brains. This was never to be.

One reason why St. Louis SHS will win the NSMQ 2023 Semi-Final Contest 1 today is because they have a strong team. St. Louis SHS has a team of experienced and talented students who have been preparing for the NSMQ for months. The team is well-rounded and has a strong knowledge of all the subjects that are covered in the competition.

In addition to these reasons, St. Louis SHS is also a very well-run school with a strong academic culture. The students (contestants) are motivated to succeed, and the teachers are highly qualified and experienced.

Today, Achimota School proved its worth. Achimota will be hoping to win their third competition in 2023 when they lock horns with other schools in the grand final on Auguts 24th.

Of course, there is no guarantee that St. Louis SHS will win the NSMQ 2023 Semi-Final Contest 1 so easily. The competition is always fierce, and Achimota SHS won the contest. It was a well-deserved win.
