The sentiment was sparked by a tweet from a former law student who lamented not attending UI. The tweet read, "UI seems to be the federal university that gives people the grades they actually work for, Wish I'd gone there like I wanted to. Guys, please, I studied law, and I tweeted this specifically, referring in my head to UI law."

The thread, initiated by the Twitter user expressing regret for not attending UI, garnered widespread attention as others shared similar sentiments. One user lamented, "I wish I studied there, that was my first choice o," while another sadly remarked, "Bruh, I should have gone there instead of that miserable place I went to."

The conversation quickly evolved into a collective reflection on the perceived disparity between grading systems at UI and other institutions. Users shared comparisons, stating, "UI seems to me to be the federal university that gives people the grades they actually worked for,"

The acclaim wasn't limited to a single discipline, as comments hinted at a universality to UI's approach to grading. "It's across, actually. Not only law," remarked one user, suggesting that the integrity of UI's grading extends beyond specific departments.

In an educational landscape often marred by controversies surrounding grading practices, the University of Ibadan stands as a shining example of a institution where grades truly reflect the dedication and diligence of its students.
