Forget about your grade,work on yourself.

Thank you, Thank you and Thank you.
But i've not always been an advocate of comparison, so i won't start now. But the one thing Graduates(or should I say Job Seekers) have forgotten is the word Marketability. You're as good as your ability to market yourself.
Re: Third Class Candidates by Nobody: 6:37pm On Nov 30, 2013
Seriously sometimes i find it very difficult to understand Nigerians.

Is this thread encouraging people to graduate with a 3rd class degree or consoling them? Don't you have any shame Mr. OP? You should be covering your face in shame but NO! you had the guts to create a thread and tell the world that you graduated with a 3rd class degree.

What's the difference between a 3rd class degree and a diploma? And who put this nonsense on the front page?

Well i said it that this generation is doomed.

emmysoftyou: sorry if these thread is open for third class candidate.
But am here to air my view,because there is a woman who work in one of the reputable company in nigeria,here in lagos,this woman interview my sister,then after interview,she chat with my sist,and told her that she came out with third class ,that afta nysc life became perplexed to her. she later went 4 her master b4 she got her current company job as HR.
My advice to you all is that go do ur master or if yu ve God s connection nuttin wil stop you.
me wey com out wit 2:1 shey coy don giv me job?no na God go do am 4 us o0. No giv up and no let am distract you,God dey see us All and He wil help us all at the nick of time Amen.one love


A recruiter won't give you D job simply because you graduated with a 2:1.

And i'm very sure you've been well beaten to many Jobs by this same 3rd Class graduates you're advising to go for masters
Re: Third Class Candidates by drdams: 6:39pm On Nov 30, 2013
No apologies! Most 3rd class graduates were Unserious students on campus.
After ur ordeal, u start seeking for hope. There is no link between degree class and success but there is a link between degree class and getting a job (especially as a fresh graduate)

You should shut up your smelly buccal cavity and stop advising nonsense. I saw where you said "They can go for their Masters".

Which school will accept a 3rd class graduate into a Master Degree program?

Someone that couldn't pass UG will go for a Masters degree program? Someone that couldn't pass additional mathematics should go for Algebra classes. What kind of head do people have in this $hithole of a country called Nigeria?

Nigeria is doomed for life.

Watch your words.. third class is understandable for science degree programs cos they're harder..but yeah, its still not desirable...

It is my friend, if our youths embrace this mentality, it's a road for disaster. And just see the way Nigerians are romancing the topic like a 3rd class degree is anything to give you a head-start in life.

Can you imagine a "BioChemistry" student graduated with a 3rd class degree and had the guts to put it on social media.

Note that these are the kind of people that cry the most that there are no jobs meanwhile they have never submitted their credentials to any firm.

But my question is, how did he get to his final year? I thought when you fail a module, you take a resit during your holidays and you only progress to the next session after you have passed all modules. Or how does it work in Nigeria?

You cannot graduate with a 3rd class in "Science" No way!!

Seriously!! When i say Nigeria is doomed, some people said i was a bitter person.

So i'll leave my life in the hands of a 3rd class doctor. A doctor that scored below 40% in all his modules from UG 1 - UG 6.

From now onward, i won't be surprised when next i hear that Tinubu went abroad for a Patellofemoral (Knee-cap) Surgery.

Nigeria is gone. My country is gone. Our youths are gone already.

Just because you or someone close to you made a third class in a science related course doesn't mean it is understandable. It either means your ability is not strong enough to do the course or you were unserious while in the university. University education is also not compulsory if you cannot cope with the stress in a course or on the other hand, you can switch to less difficult course. People that make 1st class don't have 2 heads or 2 brains. They are simply both smart and hard working people.

tabisegroup: ... I wil never allow exam results decide ma fate in dis life..#TeamBillGate#.

I think it's high time people understand the difference between graduating with a poor grade and droping out of school to pursue a dream. Gates dropped out of school to focus and channel his energy into his Microsoft. Project/business. Bill Gates was in an Ivy Legue College and hid grades were very good.

I get pissed off whenever I get to see people comparing Bill Gates to people that finished with poor grades.

From my time in school and stories from people that graduated with third class, I made a hypothesis that people graduate with a third class because of the following

1. No interest in course of study

2. Getting carried away with the social aspect of the university.

3. Lack of required Competency

4. Victimisation (mostly with ladies).

I believe that once one can truthful sit down and do an unbias assessment on the reason why they graduated with poor grades it goes a long way in building self confidence and knowing the right step to take.

For those saying that grades should not be a criteria in recruitment processes should know that grades represents ability to work hard, follow rules/guidelines etc.

Also I will like to correct the notion that companies abroad do not favor graduates with good grades that they believe in potentials and other things. It's a very big falacy, Top Consulting Firms (the MBB) do not only select the guys with the best grades they even have prefrence for guys that graduated from Ivy League schools and have done some important internship.

Finally grades do not decide one's future, understanding areas of limitation, interests, and also getting some formal or informal training can go a long way in setting peeps that graduated with bad grades on a bright path. Self pity won't do the magic, We all can't work in the corporate world, get up and ACT NOW!!!!

LOL but lets face it. Will you trust your life to a doctor who only knows 40% of his job? A doctor that will perform a surgery on you using trial and error procedure.

Tinubu traveled abroad for a Patellofemoral (Knee-cap) Surgery, a surgery that takes less than 20 mins to perform.
President Jonathan too traveled abroad to treat dysentery. lipsrsealed

Who wants to put his life in the hands of a trial and error doctor? Not me abeg. cheesy cheesy

Well,that's the way the university system is set up isn't it? 40% is seen as competent enough that's why its seen as pass standard and they are allowed to graduate with it.The unis should know what they are doing undecided
