The Real Meaning Of The "F" Grade by lacasera14(m): 6:06pm On Feb 17, 2017
The conventional F grade in our ivory towers
meant you've failed and you have to repeat a
course, you are given a second chance to try, to
proof you can do it. Most students have been
aggravated, depressed, heartbroken, dissuaded
and discouraged by that alphabet F. But I'll tell
you all something derailing and out-of-the-way
norms about F. That grade called F doesn't mean
failure, so if your reasoning has been stereotyped
to thinking that F is = failure, sweetheart at the
risk of sounding controversial I hereby put it to
you that you are hela wrong. The real F that
means failure is

When you can't pay your children's school fees
of 300k

When your Coursemate splashes you water from
his factory fitted customized range Rover Vogue
2020 model

When you still give #20 offering in church while
your mates give #20,000

When 5 years after graduating you are still eating
"mummy thank you "

When your wife gives birth to triplets and you
took off because you can't foot the bills

When your rent is due and you start avoiding
your landlord

When you die and not even your street is not
aware of who you are

When you go to hell fire and start selling pure
water

When your kids say "daddy buy me ice cream"
and you scream "how many times have I told you
sugar is not good for your health!!! "

This and many more of it's kind are the real F's
For those whose dreams transcends beyond the
long brick walls of their departmental blocks

For those who have multi million dollar destinies

For those who see the university as an
orientation camp

For the future zuckerbergs and gates,
chimamanda and Achebe, iyanya and psquare,
Dangote and otedola

For those with similar rocket science dreams like
mine

F is just the 6th alphabet of the great British
English
Stay focused
Victoria ascerta !!!

You can rewrite and get a C or B so it's not really failure. Failure in the real world is where I'm driving at.

What the OP is saying is that 'F' only means failure when you fail to try out other alternative means of survival in this highly competitive world. It only means failure when you accept the fact that you cannot make it in your career simply because you failed in your initial attempt.

Nobody is a failure but those who believe they are.

Variety is the spice of life....

Sometimes a situation is beyond human power... Unlike in the ivory tower, if you don't read or cram, you will fail...

The real world does not work like that

The only time someone becomes a failure is when he/she blames someone else for his/her misfortune.

Real life and academic world are two different things. F grade means you failed academically. It doesn't mean you failed in life.

It doesn't mean we should encourage people to have Fs in school.
