Biology graduate advises university aspirants
However, she realised that there was no future for her as a Biology graduate, hence she decided to study Nursing.
She said at the beginning of the TikTok video:
“I know a lot of you don’t know that I have a degree in Biology before I went back to nursing school. If you know your family is not strong or you have no connections, you have no business studying certain courses. One of those courses is Biology, BSc Biology.”
@hajaar_112 explained further that there is no future in Biology, as people in other fields are also struggling to find jobs, meaning there may be little hope for Biology graduates.
She also gave an example in her explanation:
“Listen to me, even if you get Biology as a course to study, I will advise you not to go because with the way the country is right now, even courses like Nursing are still struggling to get their footing. Imagine Biology.”
“I remember when I finished Biology and did my service, then it was time to start looking for a job. That was when the reality kicked in. That’s when you will know that the course I studied is really nothing.”
“No one wants to hire you. Even when you meet people that want to collect your CV, they will be asking what course did you study, and if you tell them BSc Biology, you will just see their face drop.”
She also spoke about a few other courses in her video.

@1hajaar_112 concluded:
“I made the decision to go back to nursing school because I saw that the Biology degree that I had in Nigeria has no prospect. That was one of my major pushes to go back to nursing school.”
“If you’re a university aspirant, I am advising you, if you get courses like Biology, Biochemistry, Microbiology, please don’t. Just skip it. I know what I’m saying.”
