A Nigerian lady has shared her emotional journey of transitioning from a microbiology graduate to a medical student after multiple attempts.

Despite facing sequential rejections, her academic perseverance eventually paved the way for her admission.

Female graduate becomes medical student

In a video posted on TikTok by @becomingdrvee, the young lady documented her progress over a four-year period. The timeline began in 2022, showing her crying tears of joy as she graduated with a BSc in microbiology.

The story, however, took a difficult turn in 2023 during her first attempt to get into medical school, which was unsuccessful. She tried a second time in 2024 but did not get in again. Refusing to give up, she started a master's programme in 2025 while making her third attempt, which finally resulted in an admission.
