Boy who scored 372 in UTME trends
Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that a 15-year-old boy who scored 372 in the 2025 UTME had shared with Legit.ng his study hacks.
While admitting that there were moments during his preparation when he realised that he was aiming for something extraordinary, the boy, who wants to study aerospace engineering at Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU), shared how he balanced his other hobbies and interests with his UTME preparation. He said:
"To balance academics with other interests or hobbies is not an easy task. First of all, I didn't install any games on my phone, and I made sure I had no time to watch football or watch movies. It is not because it is bad to do them, but because I knew that there is a right time set to do anything in life. Therefore, I organised my life this way to be able to focus on my studies."
Joseph Omotayo, the HoD of the Human Interest Desk, contributed to this report, adding top JAMB scorers for 2024.
