How I moved from average to a 5.0 GPA student Pt.1 …

This is a must-read if you want to take your academics to the next level!

I must say

The journey hasn’t been all rosy,

But God has been the Head and the one who crowns it all.

I came into University as an average guy with the basic distinction level High school leaving certificate

But I knew deep down that I was exceptional

Several people had told me to my face

But what was really holding me down?

Why was I not one of the best by the grading scale back then?

What was the missing piece?

I actually found out that I was nonchalant and complacent.

I knew I wanted those high grades but I wasn’t showing that they were my priorities.

I was always part of the football squad, we don’t miss the weekend ball.

What a foolish move you might think.

Looking back, I thank God that I was good at least.

Unless I would have felt more terrible that I was always whiling away my time with something I wasn’t good at.

“Tboy” my nickname… Was always loaded with football praises.

But Covid changed my life

A day before the lockdown was declared in my country I received my UTME results (for those who aren’t Nigerian UTME stands for Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination).

It was an average grade I had a 256 out of 400.

My life changed that day

I don’t want this post to be too long

So I’ll end here today

Why wasn’t I doing right?
