Phi001:

Having exactly 4.5 in each semester for the remaining seven semesters CANNOT give you a first class!!!

cstr1000:

It depends on how your university calculates CGPA. Mine uses an incremental basis of points with respect to the level while some universities uses a flat rate.
Infact, after my 400L, my CGPA slipped from 4.74 to 4.44 due to distractions and a lot of grooving and pride. Everybody saw me as the designated faculty scholar and girls were everywhere. Infact, I barely went anywhere without one or two Engineering girls tagging along and so my CGPA suffered.
So I knew I needed to be very serious to get a first class and I got a 5.0 in 500 level.

So with regards to your question, if your university is like mine, a 4.5 throughout the remainder of your stay will get you a first class.

Nelsizzy:
It can in Uniben. 100lvl is just 10% of the total CGPA. So yeah

AntiWailer:


Yes u can..

All u need is a motivation.

U need to target 5.0 in at least 3 -4 semesters and nothing less than 4.6 in others.

5.0 is easy. Target 75 in all ur courses for that semester. Attend class and don't procrastinate.

PM me let us have a deal.

If u push your CGPA to 4.5 I will give u 50k.

And 20k every semester u are still in that 4.5 till u graduate.

I also want deal o

Phi001:

It can't happen anywhere.

Even if 100L is 1% of the total CGPA, so long as it's 4.27, you need to score way higher than 4.5 in your remaining semesters to make at least 4.5

Nelsizzy:
Really . 10% equates 0.5 n scoring 4.27 means having 0.427/0.5. I see no reason why you still can't make a first class

TechEnthusiast:


I really need to get a first class degree.But my secondary school days werent as good,it's not that I am not thanking God,but I feel inferior to those who scored 280+ in JAMB.
Can you drop hints on how I can make it in the university.I opted for computer science.
Thanks

AloyalNigerian:

Yea, it did. Thanks.

AloyalNigerian:

Crop, Soil and Pest Management. But I have special interest in computer science coz I write codes. So, I wrote jamb again and scored 286 but I'm not using it anymore. The sad thing is that, I prepared for the UTME at the expense of my course. So I had a straight drop from 4.57 to 4.28 and now 4.25. It's really painful though, but I want to make amends.

Your case is a very very Hopeful one Bro.

Back in Uniport I knew of a higher level Gas Engineering guy, that was having a CGPA of 1.82 in his first semester, (Having about 9 more). He graduated with a first class.

It's all about improving on what works best for you and setting your standards/discipline towards success.
Finally, there's a place for God's grace.

Fire down Bro.

AloyalNigerian:
I'm presently on 4.25 after dropping from 4.57 to 4.28 and then to 4.25. I relented due to some issues. Because, I had several options before me so I started losing interest in my course.

Now, my question is, can I still make a first class degree having spent 3 semesters out of 10.

tens4real:
currently on 2.05 gp this first semester about to write second semester exam
theatre and performing art
do i stand a chance to graduate with a 2.1?

JohnWriter:
Are you in your final year?

tens4real:
Fist year

JohnWriter:
The answer to your question is Yes, but you must want it bad enough!

Do you know the courses and their units for the remaining semesters? If Yes, simulate your CGPA by computing the minimum grade you require per course to maintain a minimum 4.50 CGPA, that way you know your starting point.

Since you are still in your first year, here is a guaranteed strategy; get A in all courses for the semesters left. And don't let anybody tell you it is not possible, people achieve this feat all the time!

First class is good, it opens doors!

Here is how to compute CGPA: Multiply your grade per course with the units per course (from 1st semester year one); add up the total, then divide that total by the sum of all units per course (from first semester year one).

All the best.

LordeCalifornia:

Wow! Thanks.
I have ten semesters in all.
My results so far:
4.2 first semester
4.35 second semester
4.91 third semester.
I have seven semesters left.
I just hope I make it.

I just saw your post "chemical Engineering".
That's equally my course

Ojugunrege:


yes...please, send me a message from my profile ( I suppose that's what's called a PM?) & let's connect from there.

I'm not quite comfortable dropping my email on this thread..don't I just love the anonymity of NL?

Ymodulus:


Can I have your contact?
