Hailing from one of Nigeria’s most reputable secondary institutions, Nigerian Tulip International College, Kaamilah Kareem is not just a top scorer — she’s a symbol of what dedication, discipline, and the right academic environment can achieve. NTIC, known for its strong emphasis on science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM), has long produced outstanding students, but Kaamilah’s 2025 UTME result sets a new benchmark even by their high standards.
Scoring:
-
98 in Physics
-
371 total score
Kaamilah’s performance is more than just numbers — it’s a story of excellence, hard work, and promise.
NTIC’s Legacy of Excellence
Kaamilah isn’t the only student making waves at NTIC this year. According to official records, 88 students from NTIC scored 300 and above in the 2025 UTME. This level of performance is unmatched and a testament to the school’s quality of teaching, structured academic curriculum, and unwavering support from both staff and parents.
Close on Kaamilah’s heels are:
-
Okadike Kennedy, who scored 370
-
Anuoluwa Taiwo, who achieved 368
These scores show that NTIC is not just a place of learning, but a launchpad for Nigeria’s future leaders, innovators, and scholars.
NTIC has campuses across Nigeria, including in Lagos, Abuja, Kano, and Kaduna, and consistently ranks as one of the best-performing schools in external examinations such as WAEC, NECO, and JAMB.
What Makes NTIC Stand Out?
Nigerian Tulip International College isn’t just another private school. It offers a holistic educational approach that combines academic rigor with moral instruction and extracurricular activities. The school invests heavily in:
-
State-of-the-art science and computer labs
-
International academic competitions
-
Exchange programs with global institutions
-
Dedicated academic counselors
-
Intensive UTME preparation strategies
NTIC students are taught not just to pass exams, but to think critically, solve problems, and dream big.
