It is quiet encouraging seeing some post of aspirants asking series of questions, some questions required answer while some do not. Gaining admission might be the less blessing you received as a being, the question is: What are your preparations after being offered a provisional admission?

But, It's quiet unfortunate many aspirants are known at Mosque and night vigil in the name of admission but, failed to prepare their mind after their request being granted by Allah. Bear it in mind, if you aren't inform, you will be deform. And if you are deform, definitely you can never perform. In our world today, you might be opportuned to be offered admission but, rejoice less and be more grateful by thinking of the challenges ahead of you.

There are many Students today that lacks adequate orientation before gaining admission, thereby finds their staying in the campus more difficult. Seek orientation from the experieced learners, let them inform you about the difficult/easy moment of being in the campus. Here are some tips:-

0. Be prayerful!

1. My friend, it isn't a must you read 24/7 as a Student, your brain will be affected. Make a time-table for your day after each lecture and create a moment to rest.

2. Never stay alone when you discovered yourself as a slow learner:-
Many Students today finds it difficult to reach the best Student among them, claiming they are in the same Department and were taught at the same time. My Man, brain sharp pass brain, if you no mingle with them, you go regret at the end. And that won't affect their excellent result.

3. Be attentive while Lecture is on, and avoid all sort of distractions.

4. Mingle with the best and not those that will limit your inspiration of Success.

5. Attend all forms of tutorial and make your note comprehensive to go through. Walking around the School won't help you.

6. Yes! Let them identify you!
Some Students finds it difficult to ask question after lectures, no Professor will challenge you of asking what you didn't know. Had it been you knew it already, you won't seek admission. Never mind those that hisses/laughs while you ask question, let them laugh at your blunt grammar today and smile at your Success tomorrow.

7. Engage yourself in self extra-moral class:-
Prepare yourself series of questions and write out the difficult one for your peer group to solve. Before you know, you are already a First Class product.

8. Team Work is all about doing it once and multiplies its Success. Engage yourself in an excellent team work.

9. Never deprive yourself of the leisure time.

10. Be Smart:-
You find out some people are good naturally but, had fair result sometimes. Don't depend on solving to get, be smart in your calculations and learn the necessary fast formulas. It might be CBT sometimes.

11. Procrastination.
This is a deadly inspiration that destroys your aspiration of Success. Never left no stone unturned, do the right thing at the right moment. Avoid postponement of important task.

Little experience to learn from.

It was a best moment of gaining admission in a University. As lecture starts and discoverd some lectures aren't understood, i went to our class rep to explain my situation and promised to render some help. When i realized he's not responding, i stand infront of the class and shout "Please, help me!!!! I need a tutorial". Abdullah, who happens to be the best Student of our department volunteered himself. Many people do visit him for extra moral class but, he do create time for me alone due to my situation. I visited him almost every Day and Night till the end of my stay in the University. Academically, I was drilled by Abdullah and my staying in the Campus becomes a joyful moment worth remembering.This is how i manage to graduate with 4.35 CGPA.

Lesson:

Never hide your situation, it won't help. It is better they laugh at you today and later smile about your Success tomorrow.

May we all Succeed in our doings.
