It was a deserving finale; tense everywhere. The format of the shark questionnaire is such that candidates will have to be constantly at the forefront of their intelligence, focused on the statements of the master of the questionnaires in order to bring the missing elements into the concept that he will marry by question. Since answers usually only include one word or at best one sentence, candidates will need to have their cap of thought snug and be extremely alert.
For the first two rounds, it was the guys from the Eastern Region, Pope John Senior High, who had a comfortable lead, with a 50-point lead at one point. But the "Owareans", as they are called, plunged deep into the last two rounds to win the victory over "Pojoss" and become champions of Season 2 of The Sharks Quiz.
Opoku Ware School demonstrated great success in the STEM round where they answered all but two questions to fill the gap by 50 points and to have a 30-point lead. They would end up cementing the victory in the one-on-one round, but not without a last-minute effort by Pope John Senior High who could always have mathematically won. 105 – 60 it's over.
The Deputy Minister of Education, the Hon. Yaw Osei-Adutwum, who was the special guest of honor at the finals, congratulated the organizers for designing The Sharks platform to test the students' core skills. In particular, he emphasized that science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics (STEAM) was an integral part of the economic progress of each country and congratulated teachers and school leaders for allowing their students to take part in the university competition.
Abdul Karim Abdul Rauf of Opoku Ware School won the Top Overall Candidate Award, while Awudi Stephen Yaw of Pope John Senior High and Jesse Acquah of Christian High won onNorth Dakota and 3rd best set respectively. Cornelius Osei Owusu Boateng received a $ 40,000 Presidential Scholarship from Academic City College. The winners won 5,000 GHS in cash, a fully sponsored trip to Zaina Lodge, science and multimedia sets for the school's laboratory. The selected students will also participate in the International Business Olympiads in St. Petersburg, Russia, in July.
