International Chemistry Quiz (ICQ)
The International Chemistry Quiz is a global competition run by the Royal Australian Chemical Institute for students in Years 8–13. It challenges students to apply their chemistry knowledge to real-world problems through a 60-minute, 30-question multiple-choice quiz.
Designed to go beyond the classroom, ICQ develops problem-solving, critical thinking, and scientific reasoning while allowing students to benchmark themselves against peers worldwide.
Students who enjoy chemistry or want to challenge themselves are encouraged to participate.
Interested? Email Ms Teixeira (Sidinei.Teixeira@scotscollege.school.nz) by 25 June.
