This is not a book about being naturally gifted. It is a book about being deliberate.
Oluwatobiloba Daniel Abiodun-Oni graduated with a First Class and second best graduating
student in Social Work, Nova graduating class, achieving 4.77 CGPA, making him the top 0.1%
of his class. He did not begin university that way. He began in the wrong course, failed critical
exams, spent weeks unable to leave his room, and rebuilt — quietly, strategically, and
completely. That arc is why this book exists.
How to Get a 5.0 GPA is the method behind that result. Five principles drawn from lived
experience, covering every dimension of academic excellence: finding genuine interest in your
work, building a relationship with God that extends into your study life, setting goals that are
specific and visible, fighting for every mark across every avenue through which marks are
earned, and doing more than what is required.
This book is short by design. There is no padding, no filler, no content included simply to add
weight. Every principle is actionable and every chapter closes with a concrete step the reader can
take immediately. The author's conviction is simple: the information that transforms academic
performance should be available to every student, not only those who happen to attend the right
seminar or know the right person.
Whether you are failing, surviving, or already performing well—this book was written for the
student who has decided that good enough is not enough
