"Looking back, I wish I had started my preparation earlier and practiced more with past questions.

Akintan Vivian Oyindamola, a First Class graduate and Best Graduating Law Student from Elizade University with a CGPA of 4.79, also shared her thoughts.

"Honestly, for my WAEC and JAMB exams, I studied, but not as much as I would have now with what I know. Looking back, I realize how important it is to put in the effort and study consistently. My advice to those taking WAEC and JAMB is to read and study hard because, in the end, it will be worth it. The time and energy you invest now will pay off in the future, so stay focused and committed to your goals. The results are truly rewarding when you put in the work," Vivian wrote.Key Takeaways
