Lady Who Wrote JAMB Thrice Bags Degree
Identified as @becoming.khadijah on TikTok, the lady shared how she wrote UTME three times because she wanted to study civil engineering. She said: 'Wrote JAMB twice in 3 years, focused on Civil Engineering… no admission. Third attempt, I was already tired. I just said “let me sha write it” and randomly picked Accounting, with ZERO knowledge.'
She added: 'First few months? Confusion pro max. I was literally fighting for my life in class. But God really said, “I didn’t bring you this far to stress you.” Today, I graduated with a First Class Lower Division and a CGPA of 4.0/5.0. Never had a carryover or missing script throughout my stay in school. Just God, consistency, and grace. Funny how the plan I didn’t take seriously became the one that worked out. Life really has a way of redirecting you to where you’re meant to be.'
