A final year student at a Nigerian university felt dejected and stranded after missing one of her final exams. She went to the examination hall on Wednesday, only to find out the exam had been held the previous day. Sharing her experience on TikTok via @s3thygr33n, she posted a video showing an empty hall at 8 am after she mixed up the dates.
In the video, she sat alone in the empty classroom, which prompted various reactions from netizens. They questioned why she hadn’t contacted her coursemates or been informed by her friends.
She wrote, “POV: The exam you thought was 8am Wednesday was actually 8am Tuesday (yesterday).”
Comments on the video included:
– AManda: “This happened to me. They rescheduled the timetable, and I didn’t know. Missed two papers and had to register them the next semester.”
– SIMPLE ALGORITHM: “A call saved me once. I would have missed the exam for a week.”
– P R A I Z: “How are you going to do it now? Did you meet the lecturer? He might set a date for you.”
– Lucia: “Lol… lemme go check my timetable again.”
– Khadijat Suleiman: “No WhatsApp group? No friends? No loyal coursemates?”
– Davi: “I almost missed my papers too. I thought it was at noon, but it was at 9 am. Thank God for my friends.”
– Boochie Bérry: “I remember reading for the next day’s course, confident we were to write it that day. The course we had that day, I didn’t even open it.”
