Everything is possible in Nigeria. One needs to be focussed.

It Is V.V. Possible. With Ur 2.2, U Can Become A Leturer. Only That, U Wil Be Lecturing JSS 3 Or SS1 Students. And At Worst, Primary 5 Pupils.
Your discouraging bad mouth is smelling
Do you know that some 2:2 candidates are better than some 2:1 and first class candidates? It's a function of differences in schools and lecturers attitudes.

I have a friend that graduated with 3.49 CGPA from unilorin. That's 2:2
Another friend managed to have 3.51 and that's 2:1.
Difference of 0.02 and you want the 2:2 guy to go and teach JSS3?

Some of your lecturers graduated with 2:2 if u don't know.
U have a low sense of reasoning sha.

Why?
Then what happens to my innocent and young cousin who was frustrated in 400L and eventually finished with a strong 2.2 of 3.45 CGPA in a Federal Uni.

And she has gone for her masters also in a Federal Uni and her external examiner told her she will be doing the world a disservice if she does not impart her knowledge to others via lecturing (she got a distinction).

In Nigeria, the truth is not everyone who had a 2.2 or even 3rd class is a dullard. It is sometimes a result of bad choices or even lecturer frustration.



Nobody is saying your cousin or whom ever is a dullard. The fact and stigma there is that she finished with a 2.2. The key difference between a 2.1 and a 2.2 is that a 2.1 graduate is given an opportunity to be listened to, while it's quite rare in the case of a 2.2. Most times, 2.2 graduates perform way better than 2.1 graduates,that I'm sure. There are lots of 1st class and 2.1 graduates out there, and by natural law, applications and privilege go down the pyramid.

Well her masters distinction has cleaned off whatever supposed stigma she had. And if erudite scholars praised her dissertation and asked that she look into lecturing line, then the sky is surely her limit, 2.2 or not.

I wish her all the very best. With the MSc(DISTINCTION), she will go places. Let her just apply to a few of the available overseas PhD scholarships and leave this country before they bad belle her DISTINCTION with her 2.2, cos I sense it happening. It's just a few Nigerians that really value academic excellence.

Wow, would show her this.
Because I know she has always been deeply unhappy about the 2.2 thingy and I try to encourage her to improve herself instead of looking at the limitations.
Thanks.

u re current my dear. Especially now that most universities are demanding minimum of 3.0 CGPA before u can get admission for masters. I initially thought d were joking but d became serious about it and now dt policy is spreading like wild fire. God Help our youths in this country.
amen oo.don't mind those idiots.some of them graduated with a third class.not all of them have a good grde before they started lecturing oo,now they're talking of a 1st or 2nd class upper.is grade wisdom or intelligience. I only see grade as a product of hard work either straight or crukade way and nothing more.

Wow. That's a tricky one.
You friend should calculate the courses and the units and do the Cgpa calculation to see if that is still possible. And the project work might be of help too, since it carries more units....
