Adisadel College's hopes of advancing to the semi-finals of the 2026 National Science and Maths Quiz (NSMQ) were dashed after a strong performance by Achimota School. The contest saw Adisadel trailing early on, but a quick start saw them tied with Achimota at 15 points. However, Achimota's determination paid off in the second round, as they pushed their score to 25 while Adisadel managed 18 and Boa Amponsem 13.

Adisadel managed just one riddle in the final round, and despite a last-ditch effort, could not close the gap.
The final scoreboard read 55-28-23 in favor of Achimota School, leaving Adisadel's semi-final hopes in tatters.
