handie: I'm a final year student and honestly, my GP ain't as good as I wish. I'm contemplating dropping some courses and rewriting them next session to boost my GP. please can I resit those exams and still go for NYSC that same year? I talked to my course adviser about it and he said i'll be able to go with the next available batch once my result is out. pls is this possible? what is your advice to me? N.B: I'm 20 years old

just come out with 2.1 to gain addmission in International University for Master. It's very important.

Guy pls no time just continue with ur life...OAU VC graduate with 2.2 grade so grade no go give you work and work no go make u rich in life...In addition to wat d FTC guy said,is ur school gp based on a cumulative scale?...If it is,then u must have a rethink,because if it is,then no matter how good ur grades are,d increase will be very little,though it might help you if ur GP has increased steadily over d years,if it has been flunctuating or risen @ d last,then u must think it thru,so dt u wnt have extra years and still get a 2.2...all d best...whatever d case may be,a 2.2 isn't a guarantee for aunsuccessful life and vice versa with a 2.1..[/quote

Hehehe.. Na by 2.1? Life in Nigeria is now by grades bah? So those who have a 2.2 or a 3rd class should go and die?

Omo, do what appeals to you. It depends on your course and if you want a white collar job.

If you are studying law and you wana practice law, there is no point.

If it is any kinda course but you are good @ politics and "carpet crossing" grin, then there's no point.

And infact, whatever it is, your life after school isn't dependent on your grades in school. A lota testimonies abound.

Its good to pursue good grades but if you do all you can and styl don't climb to your desired GP, what you have is your destiny and it will give u comfort in life as long as you know your onions and can prove your mettle. Infact, you may go beyond comfort and climb to a luxurious life style.. Testimonies abound my dear.. It is well wt you. Have a deep introspection and decide for your self. Goodluck.

I had to wait an extra year to make a 2:2 in unilag which is profiting me now and for life! So why won't you wait an extra session to Make a 2:1that would profit you soon and forever! Besides U'd increase your chances of job application and job search advances
Most of this Niggas saying BS probably don't wish you well or don't know the usefulness of a 2:1
Some companies would not accept anyone with anything less than a 2:1
The word is enough for the wise!!

Do whatever you think its ok but just know that a first class upper(if it exists) or a third class lower is not a guarantee for success or failure in life.

Your success in life lies in how intelligently creative you are.

Hone are those days when grades really count,now the smarter you are the richer you become.Aliko dangote,Bill gate and Mark Zuckerberg can confirm my assertion.

My 50cents.

Whoever thinks a PGD will make up for your first degree shortfalls in today's job market is on a looooong thing. Employers or recruiters still focus on your degree status before considering post graduate degrees. Please I implore you, if you are sure you can make up the 2:1 with an extra year, just do so.

My dear, I just want to appreciate you for the sense you have to question your future. Please, do what you can to graduate with a 2:1. If anyone probes, just say you took ill or some emergency prevented you from going to camp with your batch. You might be surprised that some of your set might not get called up and end up serving with or after you. Having a 2:1 will give you an advantage in the job market over a 2:2 any day unless you have a big Godfather/mother waiting somewhere to help you.

Please don't think about waiting even an extra semester. Just get ur 2;2 and move on with ur life. If u know the way people with extra year feel, u wouldn't want to be in their shoes.
By the way, I've seen instances Where students plan to achieve a particular grade point and end up not making it. Am sure during ur 1st year, 2nd and 3rd years u had lofty goals of achieving a particular grade point. The point is: u shouldn't take a risk that isn't sure. Something tells me u may not eventually make 2;1 even after opting for an extra year.

Re: Should I Go For Nysc Now With A 2.2 Or Drop Some Courses And Rewrite For A 2.1 by LogoDWhiz(m): 2:09pm On Sep 17, 2014
Well, my advice goes thus:

@handie

If you are sure and you are very sure that you can make it, give it a try.
But if not, continue with your final year, make sure u give it your best, and try to be on 3 point.

Second chance is not as good as the first chance.

I have a senior colleague at work, he had 2.2 when he finished from a Nigerian university; he traveled out of the country and went for his masters, he had distinction in his Masters degree, and he is now a lecturer.

Make sure u make a decision you won't regret after considering all your choices.

I will tell you to go ahead with your final year and have a good masters degree.

no matter what people suggest you'll still have to gather yourself, check the pros and cons then make the best decision.
