A graduate of the University of Ibadan (UI) who burst into tears after viewing her 300-level result has gone viral on social media after revealing her final grade and recent job acquisition.
Background of the Story
The young lady, who had spent considerable time on TikTok and Instagram prior to her 300-level exams, saw her results and felt devastated. She cried for an extended period, but this motivated her to refocus on her academics.
In a TikTok video, she introduced herself as Adeola and explained that she eventually graduated with a first-class degree. She noted that from her 100-level to 300-level, she enjoyed creating content on social media, but after seeing her 300-level result, she cried for 40 days and nights.
Turning Point and Academic Improvement
Realizing that her 300-level grades were not good, she made a decision to prioritize her studies over social media. She said she was close to finishing with a 2:1, which she did not want. She told herself that she could return to content creation later, but the opportunity to graduate with good grades might not come again.
Final Grade and Job Update
Three months after graduation, Adeola secured a job as a customer service representative at a fintech company. She shared this update in the same video, expressing joy and gratitude.
