35 point-hooked Apam SHS books NSMQ slot

Apam Senior High has opened the qualification gates for the Central region in a stunning performance Thursday morning.

They booked the enviable spot ahead of Oguaa Senior High and Technical School and Nasaba Presby SHS, Obiri Yeboah and Methodist SHS.

The only time the Apam-based school faced some threat was in the dying moments of the contest where Oguaa SHTS closed the gap between them to four points.

There were, however, not enough questions left to snatch the victory from Apam High who finished it off with 35 points.

Apam may want to deal with their 35 point finishing tally as the same digit saw them exit the competition in 2018.

They were trampled upon by Tamale SHS and Achimota School in that one-eighth contest which saw the two over dogs deciding the winner a tie-breaker.

For now, they are safe as the refreshed 35 point tally is enough to book a bus ticket to University of Ghana in June.
