To get an "A" in poly u gat get 80/100, while uni u get 70/100 then u gat a period of 2yrs to make a cgpa of at least 3.5... In ur year 1 nd year 2, u are being taught elementary courses in uni buh in poly from ur very first day, u in for a big mess |

Generals03:considering the caveat in your statement, then we can conclude that the op is wrong because that assumption is not true. so can we also conclude that since some Polytechnics have a higher score for their distinction grade, then they are better than University? Pls, things don't work that way, our education system is crap, we have schools outside Nigeria that operates 4.0, 5.0, 10.0 etc, their pass grade students are sometimes better than our best just because they are privileged to find a good academic environment. It's only in Nigeria that we measure academic certifications of schools by failure rate, any tertiary institution with lesser population of exemplary students is always the best because it shows how tough the school is. In a school in Costa Rica, University of Earth precisely, if you fail any course twice, you are going home, you have to get a gp of 7.5/10 in any course, if you fail to, you will have to retake in few days and you will be given your exam script to know your weakness, after the 2nd attempt and still unable to cope, you have to go home. Here in our nation, we compete on irrelevancy. |

I finished with upper credit last year in Mechanical Engineering from Osun State College of Technology, Esa oke, During first second semesters of ND1, they used 80 to calculate our Grade compared to 75 or 70 some uni are using.. |

I'm very delighted going through ur post, but i av observation to tells u, you are wrong, in polythenic, for example Osun State college of Technology Practical is 40mark and included assignments and even you note books, and 60Marks for Exams, truly i finished with a good grade(upper credit) but not easy tasks for me... just help me to calculate marks you need to got in Exam and test to be able to makes A when they are using 80 to calculate our grade compare to odas.. Sorry dere maybe a typo error i don't cross check my write up.. |

To make distinction in polytechnic is having 75% and above. My question is, to make first class in University is having what? |
Re: PROVE to show that Making First class In UNI Is Harder Than Distinction In POLY by viktoooh: 1:10pm On Mar 23, 2016 |
Forget the range figures. I think poly is hard to score distinction than first class. 2.00 in poly is pass while in uni's you have made credit already with that. |

Generals03: The bold part is what the OP omitted in his supposed 'proof'. Of course we know that 4.5 is 90% of 5 and 3.5 is 87.5% of 4. Looking at this on the surface, one will conclude easily that the bar is higher in the 5point scale. Concluding so is mathematically correct but logically and statistically wrong. If you evaluate the results of a Distinction Graduate from a polytechnic using a 4-point scale with the 5-point scale of universities, the polytechnic graduate will still emerge 'First Class Graduate' as long as score 70, for example, is equivalent to grade "A" and equivalent to the maximum point obtainable on both scales. 1 Like 1 Share |

Ezegozie: It is obvious you didn't make a first class from the way you write. I give you an assignment to look around you and check if you are better than most HND holders. At least they can spell polytechnic! It is also obvious you don't have a masters yet, so you can't even stand up to an HND with a masters. In conclusion, if you didn't have a first class, why are you boasting with one. |

Ezegozie:All this nonsense u people always discuss is so anoying. Both go to the same NYSC. Nonsense. Polytechnic is “supposed“ to be a technical school. A place of less theory and more practical issues. It is all this nonsense that has made our polytechnics lost their purpose. Nonsense posts that makes front page. |

OP you are wrong, to have a maximum point which is 4 point in polytechnic you need 75 while you only need 70 to have full point in university. |

To the OP I think you are dull and mathematically poor, let me help your situation, I am not to argue or trying to compare HND AND BSC. But before you can COMPARE, You should ensure that basis of measure are the same. For example 90% is 4 points in some Polytechnic while it is 5 points or more in university. As a result your both sides are not equal here, so your basis is totally wrong. I know you are still in school, and if you dont have work to do let me give you an assignment. Start your analysis from marks to points to grade, please do not forget to take course unit into Account, which implies that you will do the same dept for UNI & POLY to get a meaningful outcome. My worry about the assignment is that you are too dull to carry it out. OLODO. THANK YOU. |

Basalt:that's not even all. i attended both. they are not mates at alllll..... poly students don't read book like uni students. only a dundi will argue that. a 100l uniben engineering student is better than an nd graduate anywhere. a 200l student is superior to an hnd graduate. that is why even with hnd, direct entry takes you back to 200l. and with hnd you must do pgd before you can get a masters. |

It's a simple direct proportion problem in mathematics: one quantity varies directly with another. I think he is correct; although the operatives and criteria may vary with certain conditions markers. I would say it depends on the rate of equivalence between the two quantities and the constant in the relationship. If centeris paribus, then that proof enjoys mathematical support. |

It's obvious you're a third class student. Ordinary Polytechnic, you cannot spell...and ur title is reading 'PROVE', rather than PROOF. FYI, I have a CGPA of 3.85, convert it and you will get more than 4.8 on. 5 point scale. So if I can make distinction here, I can still make First Class there. Lemme tell you something, in my school you will need 75% score to get A as opposed to 70% for Universities. |

IBILEOMO: I think you are the one who is dull and blackhead here, if not I dont know how you should be talking of 90% being 4points in some Polytechnic and 5points in some universities while we are talking of equivalence of FCGPA here, does it show that your brain is functioning at all? Wetin concern 90% concern this talk? And secondly, its only an empty vessel and Olodo that starts insult when good point which can be mathematical proved is being mentioned. Go fix yourself dude |
