I graduated secondary school in 2021, ready to take on the world, but one subject stood between me and my Law admission: Literature in English. Nearly everyone in my set struggled with it, and because it's a core requirement for Law, my entire result was useless.
So I fought back. I registered for GCE in late 2022, confident I could fix it. The result came out, E8 to D7. That stupid Literature had done it again. 😭
With my motivation in the mud, I wrote JAMB mostly for the experience and scored 247. 247 for Law keh? Oya naw. 😂 I registered for UI Post-UTME anyway, barely prepared, and walked in half-ready. I scored 65/100, an aggregate of 63.375. The cut-off was 67.25. I accepted my fate.

Time to start over, properly.
I committed to retaking everything in 2024. But mid-preparation, UI's admissions office called. I'd been offered admission, portal closing tomorrow. The problem? I'd never uploaded my GCE result on JAMB since I knew it wasn't valid for Law. School portal said yes. JAMB said no.
Village people won again. 😭

I let it go and refocused.
I scored 289 in UTME, aced WAEC and NECO, and relocated to Ibadan a month before Post-UTME for tutorials, something I'd never done before. I was not going home without that admission.
Then village people visited again. Three weeks before the exam, I was robbed. Phone, laptop, my work tools, my income, gone. I made myself one promise: pass the exam first, rebuild everything after. So I kept going.

Exam day came. I felt confident. Result dropped, 62/100. My aggregate was 0.1 marks below the cut-off. I had lost the admission and my livelihood in the same season. I fell into a dark place for a while, but eventually got back up. I was offered Political Science and turned it down. I had a promise to keep.

So I went again.

I did utme and scored 299. I arrived in Ibadan two weeks early, locked in completely, and wrote the Post-UTME. The result came out, 75/100. Aggregate: 74.875, comfortably above the 67.25 cut-off. When it was later raised to 70.875, I was still four points clear.
That was the moment everything finally came together.
What kept me going through all of it? I am the first person in my bloodline pursuing a professional course. That responsibility never let me quit.

Today, that promise has been fulfilled and every setback was just part of the story that made the victory worth having.

Delay is indeed not denial.

commendable!

[JAMB @JAMBHQ]

on participating and ignorantly selected a far-away examination town. No candidate has been allocated to any centre for the 2026 UTME because the registration is still ongoing, however, when the time comes, no candidate will be posted outside his or her selected examination town.

[Tohojede S. Joseph @STohojede]

@Rawlyjaay @JAMBHQ it is not.

[Adekanmbi Ezekiel @eazymedia123]

You don’t need to have your CGPA ready to contest for certain positions because those positions are reserved for freshers, and transcripts are usually not available at the time of the election.

For example, positions like Assistant General Secretary (AGS) and Public Relations Officer (PRO) are reserved for freshers in faculties such as the Faculty of Law. These elections are held in the early second semester, when freshers cannot possibly have their transcripts ready.

However, for 200-level students and above contesting for any position, submission of a transcript is mandatory.

[Tohojede S. Joseph @STohojede]

Be diligent with your books, hold God tight, do extracurriculars but never listen to anyone who talks down on academic excellence.

[Abdulrauf Idris @DreyxStudios]

I'm about to resume as a fresher in the University of Ibadan.

Which advice do you have for this bloody fresher?

[Tohojede S. Joseph @STohojede]

@ikunle51 @JAMBHQ English has 60 questions with grades allocated to different categories of questions ranging from comprehension passage to antonyms to synonyms, the text and cloze passages.

For other subjects, they have 40 questions each.

[Tohojede S. Joseph @STohojede]

Cheating is NOT an option.

Read NOWWW!!

Spread the message.

Class where some people were "notorious" for sleeping and reading in the common rooms.

Well deserved abeg.

If you knew what these people put in to achieve their grades, you would not argue otherwise.

Not even just first class.

[ThemisXXV @ThemisXXV]

First Class Honours: 58

Everybody tell us congratulations 🎉 🥳

In UI, you pay for it.

Everyone who has ever graduated with a first class in UI really paid for it.

They are made of different stuff.

[Foundational Nupe Lawyer @egi_nupe]

The mindset of a mediocre, lazy and academic excellence hateful Nigerian is that having too many first class is ridiculous. First class is not something they dash anyone on a platter of gold, not even for course like law. It’s a product of consistent hard work and grace.
