A degree in philosophy wouldn't enhance your chance of securing a better pay upon graduation

You already have an OND and will almost certainly be pushing above your weight with a 70k job

I'd say bone the philosophy degree for now

Exactly.

Philosophy in Nigeria? Or anywhere else for that matter. How lucrative is the degree?

Admission isn't easy to get in this country u know. Waited a long time b4 I got this one.

Going to school is not an END. but getting a good job is.

School is just a means to an end and it's not the only MEANS.

Since you are just in ur first year you can quit that school apply for part time admission to anoda school that is within the state, gettin a job isn't easy so make a wise choice.

Oga Sir, the end justifies the means. What is your goal in life? Does studying Philosophy tie into your vision for life? don't go for just any course simply because yo want to attach graduate to your name. In this situation, which of the two options will take you in the direction of your vision and goals?

GOD Bless U real good! U just asked a question many people never considered b4 giving me advice.

Education is not really my thing. Although I'm good at it. My goal in life is to be a successful entrepreneur. I wanna set up businesses here and there. And then do a lot of agriculture.

I also wanna do music with all my heart. And I guess I don't need a degree to be successful in music.

I only fear the discrimination u get to face when u don't have a degree, and that's the ONLY reason I'm actually in school. I'll eventually quit the job once I've grown my asset column.

Oh, I forgot to mention my dream school.....New York Film Academy, yeah I love film making. Thanks, a lot. I guess its been too much talking.

Thank u guys, the responses have been tremendous. I was shocked to see this thread on front page.

I must confess, I got lost in the excitement.

It's really hard when u don't have no one supporting u through school and u just have to hustle for every penny u get.

The lack and hunger I had to bear coupled with inability to pay my rent just shifts me off balance. Like I said, I'm doing a holiday job, just so I can catch up on my bills.

U know how when a session ends, u begin thinking of how to pay ur fees and all.
I had wanted doing that NOUN stuff before I got the admission. People say the school isn't for young folks.
I'm just thinking to skip lectures, but do assignments and run to sch for exams. If I can catch up. A good idea?

I must appreciate everyone. Thank u so much. Especially the poster that asked what my dream in life is.

Kind Regards.

You are economical with the truth, which firm will pay a 100level undergraduate 70k per month when the Graduates are still roaming about to secure a 50k job? You people should just fear God. Or the person who promised you the job is a scammer.
You hardly get truthful contribution on NL.

Guy,no mind those folks asking and abusing you that you must go back to school that accepting the job is not wise. They know the truth but will never tell you. Please,don't lose the opportunity millions out there are seeking. We all know the situation in this country. You have nothing to lose bro. By the way,you said have passion for music and enterpreneurship, why not pursue a degree on either probably on a part time mode around lagos. Trust me you will be happier.

I suggest u change ur school by obtaining a part time form in any school here in lagos or go for online schooling , by so doing u will not loose ur job cos to get job this days is an opportunity and once u loose it, it turns to a regret. I hate the word "had I know". Think wide. I rest my case.

You know what is best for yourself however, I don't encourage you quit school for any reason whatsoever. More so, N70k is small if you ask me since you have to pay rent, transport cost, and other day to day expense.

My advice is for u to try and secure the job first cos ur school is secured already before deciding on wic to go for right now. From my experience so far after graduating I will say go for the job n do part-time even if it takes anoda 3yrs to get admission, save as u can n go into your agricultural farm u dream of owning.
