3 YEARS OF WAITING: My Journey to Nigerian Law School FROM GRADUATION TO REALITY CHECK I thought I had it all figured out when I had taken advantage of Baze University’s program which enabled me finish my education in less that four (4) years (instead of five (5)). But little did I know, fate had other plans. Three long years would pass before I could take the next step towards my dream of becoming a lawyer, by gaining admission to Nigerian Law School. WHAT WORKED FOR ME - Understanding my route: I took the time to reflect on my goals and why achieving them was important to me. I clarified my motivations, values, and priorities, which helped me stay focused and committed to my objective of being a lawyer. I understood that my goal wasn't just about getting accepted but about becoming a skilled and knowledgeable legal professional. - Resilience: I developed a growth mindset and learned to face obstacles head-on, rather than letting them discourage me. I embraced challenges as opportunities to grow and learn, and I didn't give up even when faced with repeated setbacks. I kept pushing forward, adapting my approach as needed, and persevered through difficult times. - Support system: I surrounded myself with people who believed in me, encouraged me, and offered guidance and support. I built a network of peers, mentors, and loved ones who helped me stay motivated and accountable. Their positive energy and wisdom helped me navigate tough times and stay focused on my goals. - Prayer: I maintained a positive and hopeful mindset through prayer and reflection. I believed that my dreams were possible and that a higher power was guiding me. By combining these factors, I was able to overcome the obstacles and take steps to achieving my goal of being a lawyer. If you're facing similar challenges, remember: stay focused, stay resilient, and stay prayerful. You got this! #tips #20daylinkedinchallengewithhaoma #knowledge #Perseverance #Determination #LawSchool #NLS #CareerJourney

Completed Introduction to LLM

A reflection of a decade that passed. The GCE ‘O’ levels were released a few days ago. As I scrolled through my feed and chanced upon my alma mater's post of the Class of 2023 collecting their results, I found myself traversing the corridors of time, reflecting on the decade that has shaped my educational odyssey. A decade ago, I faced academic challenges, barely passing O levels. Believe it or not, I was actually a bottom 3 of the cohort student. Despite initial setbacks, a retake and newfound determination led to improved grades. However, I couldn't pursue law immediately due to a math grade hindrance. Years later, I entered the workforce, reevaluating my aspirations during the COVID pandemic. Securing a paralegal position, I discerned a passion for law. At 24, I pursued a part-time law course at Temasek Poly, subsequently gaining admission to SUSS Law. The arduous SUSS Law admission process unfolded, with intense competition for 75 seats. Despite initial anxiety, I received the golden word: "Successful." Fast forward to 2024, now embarking on my LLB journey, I reflected on a shift in my learning perspective, emphasizing character refinement over career pursuits. Inspired by educational philosophers like Tan Sri Prof Dr Syed Muhammed Naquib al-Attas, I realized education's essence lies in molding character and instilling values. Grades, though transient, don't define our essence. We are perpetual works in progress. My main message: School grades don't dictate our future; passion, persistence, and kindness are paramount. To young minds, the journey ahead is vast, guided by persistence and passion. Loving what you pursue is key, particularly if it benefits others beyond monetary gains. Education, a timeless pursuit, fosters kindness and empathy. I hope in a few years time I can return to this post and say I too never gave up and am now an Advocate and Solicitor of the Supreme Court of Singapore. But till then, I'm going to enjoy the journey that unfolds, rich with promise and purpose. God willing, I hope we all make it to a good ending in this world and the next. Bismillah.

News | Leicester was ‘right choice all along’ for law graduate Erica. 👉 https://lnkd.in/gCuajTNq When Erica narrowly missed out on her first choice of university, she said it felt like the “end of the world”. Erica said: “I missed out on my first-choice university by just one grade, and my second-choice option unexpectedly changed my course offer to History – a subject that I wasn’t interested in studying - so I turned to Clearing to explore my options. “After narrowing it down to three universities, I received a call from a teacher at the University of Leicester who really made me feel secure and confident in the decision. That conversation played a significant role in my choice to come to Leicester.” Clearing allows prospective students to enrol on university courses without an offer. It is a great way to find a course if you didn’t get the grades that you expected or missed out on your firm or insurance choice on results day. Erica’s advice for someone going through Clearing is: “It might feel like the end of the world when you first find yourself in Clearing, especially if your plans have changed unexpectedly. But trust that everything happens for a reason. You can only do your best with the hand you’ve been dealt, and it will all truly fall into place. Looking back, I couldn’t be more grateful for the path I ended up on—this was the right choice all along.” Applicants who have their grades can call 0116 373 6000 where staff can chat through the options. The telephone line is open 7am to 9pm on Thursday 15 August. Visit le.ac.uk/clearing. #CitizensOfChange #ChangeIsCalling #Leicester #Clearing2024

🎓 Public-Private Partnerships in Education: Navigating the Legal Landscape 🌐 In my PhD research at Tashkent State University of Law, I'm delving into the legal challenges of attracting investment into the education sector through Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs). PPPs can be a game-changer for education, driving innovation and resource allocation. However, they come with their own set of legal complexities, from contract enforcement to regulatory compliance. As we strive to transform education, it's crucial to navigate these challenges effectively.
