« on: September 26, 2008, 10:50 AM »

AM JUST 21,COMING UP AT ABUJA,THE CAPITAL OF NIGERIA.THE PROBLEM NOW, IS THAT I POSSES A GREAT PASSION FOR COMPUTER,THU I DON'T HAVE MUCH KNOWLEDGE WHEN IT COMES TO PROGRAMMIN BUT I SINCERELY BELIEVE I CAN DO IT,
   SO WHERE THE PROBLEM LIES NOW IS THAT I FINISHED SECONDARY SCHOOL LAST THREE YEARS AND CAME OUT WITH 7 CS,AND 2 B'S,SCORED 245 LAST YEAR STILL MA ADMISSION AIN'T COMING SINCE THEN,AND THE REASON WHY AM NOT THAT BENT ON ADMISSION IS THAT MA FATHER GAT A SHOP THAT IS WORTH AROUND 1 MILLA,AND THE PERSON MANAGING THE SHOP IS GOING TO BE  FREE THIS YEAR AND AS THE ONLY SON,AM SUPPOSED TO BE THE ONE MANAGING THE SHOP NXT YEAR,SO ICAN SAY THAT SHOP IS GOING TO BE LEFT IN MA CARE NXT YEAR,AND IF I GET ADMITTED NXT YEAR WHO AM GOING TO LEAVE THE SHOP TO,I REALLY NEED TO GAT THE CREAM BEFORE AM 24,THATS WHY MY MIND NOW WORKS LIKE OBAMA.
   BUT DEEP IN MA MIND I DON'T WANT TO GO DOWN THE LANE MA POPS WENT because I BELIEVE IN WE ALL NEED TO ADVANCE WITH THE SOCIETY.AND WITH THAT I'm MIND I WET TO ONE ''IT''  SCHOOL AT WUSE ZONE 2 CALLED APTECH,AND HEARD THEIR PRICES ON A LOT OF PROGAMMES AND THEIR PROMISE THAT THEIR CERTIFICATE'S WAY VALUED MORE THAN ANY DEGREE CERT AND I'LL DEF GET A NICE  JOB  ONCE I GRADUATE FROM THEIR SCHOOL,SO WITH IN MIND I AM SAVING TO START A PROGRAMME WITH THEM NXT YEAR,THEIR LESSONS ARE EVENING PROGRRAMES SO I RUN MY DAY HUSTLE AND GO TO MA SCHOOL IN THE EVENING,TILL I FINISH THAT'S HOW I PLANNED IT.
   SO BROTHERS AND SISISIS,I WROTE ALL THIS THINGS because I NEED PROFESSIONAL ADVICE WHETHER AN IT CERT'S CAN COVER UP FOR A DEGREE CERT because CASH RULEZ IN EVERYTHING AROUND ME,AND AM ALSO WONDERING WHETHER I CAN LAND A GOOD JOB AFTER MY IT PROGRAMME,please PEEPS I'LL REALLY APPRECIATE ANY ADVICE FROM ANY OF U because I AM CONFUSED.

hi,i saw ur post, of course it`s true u can easily get a job but atleast u know in nigeria ,we value that B.Sc more than anything, what if tomorrow u aspire to be the President of Nigeria .the question the world would first ask u is that which university did u attend, hope u remember SALISU BUHARI?HuhHuhHuhHuh??  it's ok u are going into I.T that's a very good decision but i would also advice u , atleast start either a university or polytechnic part-time course, when u're through with the part-time course, ur certificate will not bear B.sc part-time but B.sc, i don't know how can combine the two together but it's the best u can ever do, i'm a 200 level Computer Science undergraduate,

i agreed with you, u need that B.SC here in nigeria. why don't you go for university of abuja part time programme since u reside in abuja. their part time programme used to be garki, area 3 very close to the old nitel office. i know it used to be very expensive five years ago when i was running a full time programme at the campus(gwagwalada) but it's better, u can make enquiry.

u can still run your father's business and at the same time go for your studies.
You can get a P.C and do some practicals.

best of luckkkkkkkkkkkk

i do apreciate all the replys,but seriuosly i want to ask if anybody in here knws wht it means to wake up everyday at 5:30.mondayz to saturdayz,stay focused 24/7,go to IT lessons in the evenings and still attend part time lectures  EVERY WEEKENDS,DAMN!Never believed life could be so demanding.
stilll i'll give the part time stuff a try,but the last time i checked it it was too expensive for an average nigerian,u knw how it is, not really that well financially,but i am wondering if anybody in here have a clue how i can combine the three stuffs together only me.now i can feel the pain of beign an only son,very hard to manage.IDEAS ARE WELCOME.PEACE
