First‑Class Graduate Uses ChatGPT and Gemini to Master Difficult Courses

Oluwadamilola Soji‑Oderinde, a first‑class Software Engineering graduate from Babcock University, said he turned to AI tools such as ChatGPT and Gemini to help him understand the most challenging parts of his curriculum. In a recent interview with Punch Nigeria, Soji‑Oderinde explained that the conversational AI models provided step‑by‑step explanations, worked through complex problems, and offered alternative learning pathways that were not available through traditional lecture notes. He credited the technology with boosting his confidence and allowing him to complete assignments more efficiently. The graduate’s experience highlights how AI can serve as a supplemental resource for students facing dense technical material. Babcock University officials noted that the success of this approach may prompt the institution to explore formal integration of AI‑based tutoring into its teaching framework.
