The University of the Philippines Association of Chemistry Majors and Enthusiasts (UP ACME) will be holding the “7th HSM: Hanep sa Science at Math” on May 22, 2021 via Zoom & Facebook Live. Previously an inter-school Science and Math quiz bee, this year’s HSM will be an online scientific writing symposium and competition open to all junior high and senior high school students, as well as out-of-school youth ages 13-19 years old nationwide.
