Seven-time champions Presbyterian Boys SHS, two-time titleholders Achimota School, and the equally illustrious two-time champions Opoku Ware will face off in a fierce contest of wits for the 2023 trophy and ultimate prize at the National Theatre in Accra.
The former headmaster of TI Ahmadiyya Senior High School, Kumasi, Ibrahim Kwaku Gyasi, has told YEN.com.gh that the schools deserve praise.
''The schools deserve praise ... the NSMQ is helpful, but there are other means to promote Science and Mathematics in the country.
''We should not rely solely on the NSMQ, even though it encourages participation. It is useful, but we should consider other approaches. However, I must say the schools have all done well,'' he told YEN.com.gh.

I got that the best student from OWASS is a first-year student. That makes me fear for them a bit, but it could be anything. Presec is always favourite in final though.
