Student who rewrote JAMB shares desire to study law
Michael shared his full results with Legit.ng as he opened up on why he wanted to study law.
Apart from having a passion for the course, Michael said he also wanted to make his father proud by studying law.
He said:
“There are three reasons why I want to embark on this legal profession: I have full passion for it, I believe I can change the view of the people towards Law and Order in the society, and to make my father proud. My preferred institution is Prince Abubakar Audu University, Kogi State (PAAU).”
Law aspirant shares JAMB experience
The student shared how he started writing JAMB in 2020 and how it had been for him.
He said:
“I graduated from secondary school in the year 2020, where I failed my core subject (Literature in English -E8). Then I partook again in 2022, and I cleared all my papers. Both exams were WAEC. I was 16 years old when I took my first JAMB in the year 2020.
“I believe is because I haven't met up the university's required departmental or admission cutoff mark. With the help of God and my dedication I believe I will be admitted this year into my preferred course of study, but if otherwise I will continue my degree because I'm a student of Religious Studies in Prince Abubakar Audu University Kogi State (100 L) and still apply again for Law next year.”
