Pls patronize my brand and put me on modeling gig.
If you can see this, pls help retweet. Someone looking for my services might be on your TL.
Thank youuuuuuu ❤️
Mine is proof that persistence can beat perfection.
I wrote JAMB five times before Pharmacy finally happened.
204 → 244 → 256 → 286 → 277.
I also wrote 2 WAECs, 1 GCE, and 1 NECO before I finally cleared all 9 subjects.
You'd think that was the end? 😂
During my first degree at UI, I took on 70 credit units in 100L—about 27 courses in one session. That's practically a lecturer's workload. 😭
My first semester ended with a 1.8/4.0 GPA. It was a painful reality check. I went back, changed my reading strategy, and in the second semester I pulled a 3.6/4.0, raising my CGPA to 2.71/4.0.
Then I gained admission into OAU Pharmacy.
In 100L, I scored 0/30 in one of my tests.
Zero.
I left that test embarrassed, but I refused to let it define me. I prepared harder for the exam and ended up scoring 40/70.
Looking back, my academic journey has never been about getting everything right the first time. It's been about refusing to quit every time life said, "Try again."
If there's one thing school taught me, it's this:
Consistency will eventually defeat setbacks.
Delay is not denial.
