“But the more I failed, the longer a subject would stick in my head even though it took me 11 semesters.
“I failed as many as 18 times when I completed my studies,” he confessed on a now-viral tweet.
The 25-year-old said he took up a Bachelor of Law degree at Universiti Teknologi Mara (UiTM) at Shah Alam, Selangor in 2013.
Rafiq explained that he was not diagnosed as a slow learner but instead had difficulties adjusting to new learning environments and it would take him a long time to understand a subject.
“In my first semester, I failed four subjects,” he told mStar.
Rafiq also revealed he was almost expelled for failing a subject three times but was grateful he was given a second chance after an appeal.
