Legit.ng contacted Abdulmajid Mahmud Dabo, a graduate of Taraba State University, to learn how he achieved the feat he had set his mind on since the beginning of his academic journey at the university.

In the exclusive chat, he explained what inspired him to aim for a first-class degree from his first year at TSU.

Abdulmajid Mahmud explained:

"What inspired me to aim for a first-class degree from my first year was largely my ambition and long-term goals. I have always been someone who strives to get the best out of any situation I find myself in. Early on, I understood that graduating with a first-class degree would significantly improve my chances of securing scholarships, grants, and other academic opportunities after graduation. I also have a strong personal inclination toward excellence, and that played a major role in setting that standard for myself from the beginning."

He also revealed in the chat the study habits he adopted that helped him maintain a good academic record, that eventually helped him achieve a high CGPA and a first-class degree.

"In terms of study habits, consistency was key for me. I made it a point to study almost every day, typically for at least one to two hours. I function best in the evenings and early mornings, so I structured my reading around those periods rather than late nights. I attended lectures regularly, took detailed notes, and complemented my learning with online resources, including educational videos. I also developed the habit of reading ahead of each semester—reviewing course outlines, studying challenging courses in advance, and going through past questions and materials from senior colleagues."

"A typical study routine for me involved attending lectures during the day, then dedicating time in the evening to revising and studying ahead. I focused on understanding concepts rather than memorisation. During academic breaks, especially during the 2022 strike, I maximised my time by going to the hospital to observe and learn practical laboratory procedures. This hands-on exposure helped bridge the gap between theory and practice and gave me a deeper understanding of my field."

Also, he spoke about the moment he became confident that he was going to finish his academic programme with a first-class degree, which he had set his mind on since 100 level.

His statement:

"I became confident that I could graduate with a first-class degree after seeing my first-semester result. I had a GPA of 4.81, which immediately showed me that the goal was achievable. From that point, I made a conscious decision to remain consistent and not become complacent."

Lastly, Abdulmajid Mahmud Dabo advises aspiring graduates who would want to replicate his feat or make similar achievements in their course, department, or faculty.

"My advice to students aspiring to graduate with a first class is to be intentional from the beginning. You have to understand that it requires discipline, consistency, and a clear sense of purpose. It is important to read ahead, attend lectures, ask questions, and develop a strong work ethic. Also, surround yourself with like-minded individuals who share similar academic goals. Your environment and daily habits play a huge role in shaping your outcomes."
