She initially studied Medical Laboratory Science (MLS) at UI but knew she was not where she wanted to be.
UI medical graduate writes JAMB twice
Moyosore decided to retake the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) after the portal reopened. She noted that she scored 322 in the examination, which was 49 marks higher than her previous attempt.
She stated that she had already deserted her MLS course in 200-level first semester when a new hurdle emerged. The school announced that Post-UTME would be written, leaving her in a high-stakes situation.
Moyosore Owojuyigbe's LinkedIn post read:
"This journey took over a decade.
Finished secondary school in 2015.
Then life made a detour to study MLS at the great University of Ibadan.
Yet, I knew I wasn't where I wanted to be.
So, I took JAMB again. Funny how the portal had already closed 2 weeks prior, but for some reason, they decided to reopen it for another 2 weeks that year.
The second JAMB, I scored 322 [49 marks above the last].
I could remember rushing out in excitement while waiting for a lecture that later didn't hold.
I remember the exact outfit I had on.
That year, I got another shocker. The year 2017.
Post-UTME was to be written after all.
And by that time, I had deserted my course of study in UI, 200L first semester.
It was either I passed or got stuck.
Then came the results,
and I not only passed, but got in on merit.
Years passed in medical school, including the dreaded Part 4, where I questioned my choices,
but the love for Medicine had me steadfast.
Part 5, I had a distinction in Pediatrics.
Then 3 days ago, 18th May 2026, at about 12–1 pm, I became a medical doctor.
