If you have been following Cowbellpedia, you will agree it has been 13 exciting weeks of play. It has been 13 weeks that left us awe-inspired, shocked, amazed and excited at the possibilities of the future of our nation. We have seen kids from all over Nigeria exhibit genius-level intelligence live on screen and wowed us with their swift mathematical skills. We have seen and enjoyed every moment of it, and as the show comes to an end on Saturday, we have curated a list of all the finalists.

The journey of these finalists began when 52,000 students wrote a preliminary test. Out of the 52,000, 108 made it to the live-show. These 108 were the 74 best junior and senior students from all 36 states and the FCT (to ensure every state is represented). The remaining 34 were the best students nationwide – 17 junior and senior. In the end, 12 finalists have emerged – 6 in the junior and senior categories and 2 of them will be walking away with the grand prize of N1Million each, an all-paid educational excursion outside the country and the ultimate bragging rights of being the 2017 Mathematics Champions.

See all 12 of them. Enjoy, support education and share.
