Organise NSMQ in less noisy auditoriums
An appeal has been made to the organizers of the NSMQ to consider hosting the quizzes in a calm and less environment.
Speaking to YEN.com.gh, an educationist, Mr Daniel Fenyi, said the current nature of the competition favours the Boys' schools.
"The average girl is more calm, organised and shy, so if you organise a quiz in such a noisy context, there are higher chances she may perform to their best abilities."
