UI student graduates with 2nd class higher after studying zoology, which she didn’t like

• A Nigerian lady said she wanted to study medicine in school but was not given the course of her choice
• In lieu of medicine, the University of Ibadan offered her Zoology but she turned it down but her father insisted that she take the course
• She went reluctantly and has now graduated with a 2nd class higher degree in zoology after failing to change her course

One lady said she wanted to study medicine in school, but the course was not given to her when she applied.

Instead of medicine, she took up Zoology from the University of Ibadan, Oyo State.

In a story she shared TikTok, Dblishhaak said she turned down the course because medicine was her first love.

However, her father insisted that she must attend school and threatened to discontinue her academic activities if she refused.

Student of the University of Ibadan graduates with a second class of senior secondary education

She reluctantly went to the University from Ibadan and started studying but kept trying to change her course.

Dbliscrochet wrote the Unified Tertiary Matriculations Examination (UTME) separately in an attempt to change her course.

She failed to do so as she did not meet the cut-off mark set by the Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU), Ile-Ife, where she had applied to study medicine.

In fact, when she wrote the OAU post-UTME, she said the to ask were so easy that she thought it would be a walkover, but she failed.

For example, she was asked to tell the correct spelling of scissors, which she thought was a ridiculous question.

After repeated trials and failures, Dbliscrochet decided to give up and concentrate on studying zoology at the UI.

She did not graduate with a second class degree in the course and said the journey was difficult but she made it through.
