Allow me to add a piece of advise to our freshers in the house. 1. Be focused: most freshers find it very difficult to focus...because the year one class from my experience, is a market place. You have all sorts of tutorial people every now and then, fighting to teach and market their past questions to you. You also have countless organizations in school scouting for members...a few include state organizations groups, local government groups, clubs, fellowships, cults and many others. As a fresher, you have to be very careful on whichever group you decide to follow. You must ensure that whichever group you choose, you musn't spend majority of your time on their activities. How to manage your funds: Most year one students go bankrupt because they lack proper orientation on how to spend their money on campus. As a fresher, you must mind what you spend your money on...look at it this way, most year one students I've come across are obsessed with women and luxury lifestyle. Most of them won't mind missing lectures for a week or more just to host and lavish money on a girl they just met...its that bad. I once had a friend (name withheld) in my first year...he used his school fees to purchase a home theater and a flat screen television. (According to him, he was getting ready to welcome the ladies). Along the line, he became broke as a result of his extravagant lifestyle and couldn't meet up...he actually confessed to me what he did and I advised him to alert his parents about the whole issue. Now if you ask me, I would call that an unnecessary waste. Spend your money on things that would add positive value to your life. Use your money to buy text books, helpful materials and attend tutorials that would boost your academic performance and not for unnecessary show off. 3. Cultivate a reading habit: I've noticed that most year one students spend little or no time on their books...they prefer to explore the campus and its environs. Most of them become local football champions on campus they play football from morning till evening with no hope of reading. In most campuses we have different types of football tournament. Ranging from lodge cup, departmental cup, faculty cup, VC cup, SUG cup etc. All these can make a student loose focus. Also, some become experienced soccer analyst on campus...they would discuss Manu and Arsenal till 1:am. I once had a quarrel with one of them in my lodge back then. So as a fresher, try an distant yourself from such people and associate yourself with people that can add value to your life. 4. Know the kind of friends you keep; Evil communication they say corrupts good manners. As a guy or girl, the people you associate with in your first year on campus, can tell the kind of person you would turn out to be. Good luck 22 Likes 5 Shares |

ShehuAba: Gud morning Pls any1 who has an idea of the difference between a 7.0 CGPA calculation and 5.0 calculation should throw more light on it.First, there is nothing like a 7.0 CGPA. Gp ranges from 0.0-5.0 Now here's the break down. 0.0 - 0.99 = fail. 1.0 - 2.49 = 3rd class. 2.5 - 3.49 = 2nd class lower 3.50 - 4.49 = 2nd class upper 4.5 - 5.0 1st class. Feel free to ask questions on areas that aren't clear to you. 3 Likes 2 Shares |

Oops... sorry I forgot to add 1.0 - 1.49 = pass, then 1.50 - 2.49 = 3rd class...see my previous post for the remaining |

Dis's hw 2 aryv at ur CGPA per semester in UI, with dis we shuld ol av an idea of hw it shuld be in oda skuls Let's say u offering 10 courses. One 4unit, five 3units and four 2units. What matter most is ur grade in each course. If u have 'A' @ 4unit course then u've boosted ur CGPA very well cos d 7.0 will be multiplied by 4 = 28points GES 101 (4units) ====> A = 7 x 4= 28 MTH 101 (3units) ====> B+ = 5 x 3 = 15 MTH 102 (3units) ===> A- = 6 x 3 = 18 EEC 104 (3units) ====> C+ = 2 x 3 = 6 EEC 106 (3units) ====> A- = 6 x 3 = 18 EEC 108 (3units) ===> B = 4 x 3= 12 MEC 101 (2units) ===> A = 7 x 2= 14 LIB 101 (2units) ===> C+ = 2 x 2= 4 MEC 104 (2units) ===> B = 4 x 2= 8 MEC 109 (2units) ===> B- = 3 x 2= 6 after all these calculations, addition of everything i.e 28+15+18+6+8+12+14+4+8+6= 119 owk ur total course unit for the semester is 26 units addition of one 4unit, four 3units and 5 2units Final CGPA = 119/26 = 4.57 1 Like 1 Share |

ShehuAba: I got dis 4rm a pal in a thread. Dis is d Grades Points calculation in UI :Good efforts, but this isn't university grading its waec grading... Below is university grading... 0 - 39 = F 40 - 44 = E 45 - 49 = D 50 - 59 = C 60 - 69 = B 70 - 100 = A 1 Like 2 Shares |

And for the quality points... A.....is 5 not 7 B.......4 C.......3 D.......2 E.......1 And F....0 So if you get and A in a 3 unit course, you automatically have 15 points because it would be 5 (quality points) multiplied by the credit hours which is 3...therefor it would give 15. Same rule applies to all other grades. |
