@ binty,truth be told,first class is out of the question for you.if you work very hard ,then you could make a 2.1.im speaking from experience.i had a cgp of 1.98 and two carry overs in my first year and it took me a lot of hard work to get a 2.1.all you have to do is read hard,find out how each lecturer likes his answers.for example,some lecturers prefer short answers,some prefer long winded answers,some prefer having a copy and paste from their notes and nothing else while others prefer a little more research.others love diagrams(this depends on your course).finally,you also need to pray for Gods help and some luck.yes,i said luck cause sometimes you may have written the exam well but then,the lecturer who has just been pissed off by his wife,settles down to mark your script.you can imagine what will happen.(btw,i have actually seen this happen). anyway,if you need a sympathetic ear or guidance or just a friend who understands what you are going through,this is my e-mail:prettyrhyme03@gmail.com or you can add me up if you are using a bb:28a1ca1a.(pls,dont misinterprete this.im not a lesbian)

You may be wrong bro, in my year 1 I got a 4.72, I finally came out with a 2;1 but my friend who got 2.14 or so in year one came out with a 4.5cgpa finally. The op has got 3-4 yrs left and if he or she works very hard , first class could surface.
@op let me tell you why I almost failed out of school, after year 1 I moved out of the hostel to bpda,where u got big boys n girls, was always seen in beer parlors and getting a new girl every night was like a new mission to complete then in 200l. This happened almost everyday and in the end I failed woefully. Same thing happened in300l first semester but I later came to my senses in the second semester. I went back to the hostel in my finals, reduced my social life to the minimun and yes,sleep, I didn't know it anymore as I read day and nights, some nights I got back to the hostel by 5am, it was that bad my brother,but it paid in the end. It was my final year that allowed me get a 2:1 out of sch and I was lucky because in my time we used 5,15,25,55% rule, so the final year played an important role in shaping my cgpa. If this is applicable in your sch then you are likely to get a first class if you sit up
right.just deprive urself from pleasure for now and the sky would be your starting point

Please, how do you calculate the GPA?

Re: Improving Low Gpa by samuel1994: 4:10pm On May 22, 2016
Sam from yabatech, I ruin part time programme and doing my nd1 first semester I had a carry over and doing my second semester nd1 I had another carryover. But I was promoted to nd2. I did my first semester caryover in nd2 first semester and I passed it and my second semester nd2 I also do these same but my nd2 second result was canceled and was advise to repeat nd2. So how do I go about these? Will. I write the first semester nd2 exam and the second semester. Or I should write the second semester nd2 only.
Re: Improving Low Gpa by omotroyz(m): 4:44pm On May 22, 2016
op, u want first class?
FORGET IT because u are dull, if not u would have had up to 2.50 (an average). but if u are still planning to get a first class then i guess u are ready to Bleep your lecturers and buy your way through (assuming u are a gal). u can read and pray as u like but with a GPA of 1.96 for a start? NO WAY. struggle for 2:1.
and if truly u are dull, I don't see u graduating with a 2:1.
here's my advice : why not read and teach your fellow mates?

Uni is so easy,I heard that with 1.0 [/b]or less you can still be in the system... [b]1.96 in Nigerian Polytechnics is a probation mind you its over 4.0 and if you fail to meet up to 2.0 out of 4.0 in your second semester of Year 1 am afraid you will get your as.s kicked out.

Anyway I don't know much about the Uni system but
My advice for you is this ; make friends with the intelligent ones.

Best of luck!!

It would have been better if you just read and pass than saying what you don't know;

In some professional courses you need a B (60%) to pass and no continuous assessment. U need a CGPA of atleast 2.4 to stay in d system and if you have three carry overs n above, you repeat the class n take all d courses again.There are variations from course to course and university to university.
CGPA is jst a scale, it can be 4.0, 5.0 or 6.0 depending on the school n country and does not demonstrate any superiority or difficulty of a course/institution. I have done an MS dat u must maintain GPA of 3.0 out of 4.0.
