"I was a Direct Entry Student. I attended the Ibarapa Polytechnic (now Adeseun Ogundoyin Polytechnic), Eruwa, Oyo State where I also studied Computer Science. When I gained admission directly to 200 level, I decided to graduate with a first class and also graduate as the best student. To achieve this, I enquired about the best students in the senior levels and also the best graduating student from the last session/set (Mr. Clinton). He gave me all the materials he used when he was a student and they helped me prepare ahead of the semesters as I had materials up to 400 level as a 200 level student. I would say "Association with the right minds for the right reason in the right season matters".
