It was not a cruise, it was a fight. But Kumasi Secondary Technical School fought smarter and finished stronger at Auditorium 900 to seal qualification into the one-eighth stage of the 2025 National Science and Maths Quiz (NSMQ), finishing the contest with 49 points.
Konongo Odumase SHS made the louder start, topping Round One with 23 points, but Kumasi Sec Tech patiently climbed back, taking control by Round Two and refusing to surrender the lead again.
The real breakaway came with the Problem of the Day, where Kumasi Sec Tech scored an impressive 9/10, the game-changer in a contest this tight. Bright SHS and Konongo Odumase, who both managed 8/10, stayed close but not close enough.
At the final bell:
KSTS — 49pts
Konongo Odumase — 46pts
Bright SHS — 41pts
Another Ashanti side is through, and Kumasi Sec Tech did it the NSMQ way: steady rise, big brain round, clean finish. The prelims continue, and every seat to the next stage gets harder to steal.
