Rewrite the papers. From all the comments above, you can see clearly that some people were once in your shoes and still came out. Make sure you get all the NECESSARY DETAILS as you go back to school, because from comments above, I can see a law student who mentioned that you will borrow some easy courses to add up as well. Do the right thing, stop bothering, you will be fine. Stop bothering about your mum, she will soon accept things the way they are. 1 Like |

BathingSoap: Now here's the thing bruh, since you carried your final courses and you're just knowing, I'll assume they are second semester courses. Now, you definitely still have to go back to finish things off bruh, but for the first semester and all that you'd be left with doing nothing, go and LEARN a SKILL. Whatever skill you have in mind, there's someone out there to teach, either paid or free. Whichever way, Learn a Skill. I feel your pain sincerely bruh, but no solution will, and has ever come from regrets. All you need to do now, is reflect on those mistakes, own them(wear them as a badge and as a driving force), and move forward striving to be better than you are now. |

Re: I Finally Had An Extra Year by Handsomecole(m): 4:52am On Oct 28, 2019 |
I see no problem here , I actually had two extra years which made me graduate 3 years with a even a 3rd class after my set had already graduated. But by God's grace I never job hunted for a single day cos I got a job with a top firm same day of got my call up letter and in fact I'm even helping most people from my set to look for jobs using my connections. It's just a matter of prayer, change of mindset and maximizing the opportunity. Everything depends on you. 2 Likes |

So what? I had an extra year too and after that, I had a good job. |
Re: I Finally Had An Extra Year by Nobody: 5:58am On Oct 28, 2019 |
BathingSoap: Yeah,I followed ur thread but I didn't reply in that thread either. You are complaining about spill over.Do you know if that's your own cross to carry or even a replacement for untimely death ?You better be happy & cheer up.If your eyes were opened,you would have seen what problem God has lifted you out from by telling you to stay one more year in the school. Every man's race is different in life.Some start making it early,some make it in the afternoon and while some make it in the evening when they are getting old. If u are on fiverr,concentrate and build up that skill to get more big clients.You could get a client who could give you a contract or more than $3000 at a time.I have seen someone who got a contract worth $5000 and $2000 respectively on queue. Don't always depend on school.The mistakes I made then was depending on school and after finishing school now,no work.I had to start learning online trading and other freelancing skills. Always have Plan B in life.Go back to take your courses and tell your parents.Don't hide anything from them. 1 Like |

Look stop being a spoilt brat, school is not just about academics, it about dedication to a cause, about commitment, the art of starting and finishing. If you don't learn these skills now you will never be successful in another endeavour. In life things don't always work out as planned, it takes persistence, commitment, and hard work to make a dream come through. As it stands you don't have another solid plan, so I will suggest you go do your carry over, while doing it, start making concrete plans for what you want to do with your life. 2 Likes |

Lol... I remember I opened a thread like this few weeks ago.. I was in this same dilemma and grief, People actually encouraged me here on Nairaland. I'm a student of Unilorin, Science Education (Chemistry), See, I have started having issues some or two from my 100L days despite the fact that I read like no tomorrow.. I spilled in 2018,I had no place to stay to retake my 6(required) courses, One from 200L chemistry practical and One from 300L chemistry, with others from 4L, had to hang in school faculty, mingle with the security, in rain and in harmattan... Well, I convinced my parents that I'm going to pass all in 2019 when I spilled, I passed 4 required courses plus the 3 chemistry electives I did.. Now, This semester I splash with two first Semester courses (Nov-feb) and I'm not dead yet.. Despite having no place to sleep because there's no one to pay my house rent., I still need to find my way and pay my school fee this time myself. Just pick Up yourself and sit for the courses, Just two fa.. Honestly you'll make it, it's just time. God bless |

You will just look back with nolstagia someday when you become a great lawyer like Gani, or business tycoon like Aliko, and believe me one of your greatest inspiration and motivation to people would probably be this little setback. |

BathingSoap: Too late you say? My dear if you have breathe in your nostrils this morning, it means it isn't late for you. Let me ask you, do you know how many years AY comedian spent in Abraka? Google and read up about him and draw some strength from his past struggles. Do you know he lost his parents and became the father and mother to his siblings at a young age? But you still have mother. Now the world knows AY comedian. What about all other graduates who finished while he was delayed? I want you to know we all as individuals have our times. Bro, your timing is different. You might be delayed to go to law school because of two outstanding courses. Look at the brighter picture. Be positive, you will see the good eventually in this period as it will sharpen you up for your future. Bro, look up. Be positive about life and your future. You will make it eventually. 2 Likes |

Divay22: My dear what you're facing is not peculiar to only you. So many of us are in that boat and feel that way. But what makes the difference is the inner strength never to give up. To keep fighting. Let me tell you there's no easy way out. So erase the thought of you finding an easy way out - it'll only make you weak and lazy. Keep doing what you, keep living and keep fighting, one day the efforts will pay off. But one thing dear - as much as the goal is fixed, that is we all want to be successful and happy; be flexible with your strategy - the way you go about achieving that goal. Then finally, be prayerful. Whatever religion you do, please pray. In the end, we'll be happy. Including you here is my number feel free to chat me up if you don't mind.
