Now this is me part 2.

7 years between WAEC and Uni. 2 WAECs, over 8 JAMBs. Lived close to LASU and around students so made the long stay at home even worse.

But I'm here now.

Congrats man. Keep keeping on.

Congratulations…
Your resillience is mindblowing, i hope to hear more about your achievements soon

Aside: I met a guy in the UNI who wrote jamb for 9 years.
This guy went on to finish as one of the best in his dept while bn on scholarships from his 2nd year.
