UNILAG student laments questions she was given
Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that a University of Lagos student had cried out after being given long questions to attempt in 45 minutes.
She posted a video of herself on TikTok holding the question paper she was given during the test. According to her, this was a test and not an exam, but the test questions were set in the style of a real exam. She expected that there would be enough time to solve them - at least 2 hours, or 30 minutes for each question.
She spoke further in the video, explaining that she understood the question but didn't answer it because there wasn't enough time to do so. Many social media users have reacted to the UNILAG student's video, as it went viral on the internet.
