Yusuf revealed that she maintained a rigorous study routine, dedicating 18 hours a day to reading while in school. To manage her study time efficiently, she divided the subjects she needed to cover each day into three categories and spent six hours on each.

She advised students aspiring for academic excellence to avoid procrastination and not wait until exams draw near to begin studying. Seeking help from senior colleagues or lecturers when faced with difficulties in understanding the course material was another valuable tip she offered.

During the 26th convocation and 40th anniversary of the institution, Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu of Lagos State rewarded her outstanding achievement with a generous sum of N10 million.

Yusuf also shared that her motivation to attain a perfect CGPA as an undergraduate stemmed from achieving an impressive 4.98 CGPA during her direct entry (DE) program at LASU.
