My dear don't mind anybody do wot ur hrt tells u bt i'll advise u dispose of ur room every paper in any form, use part of ur N5m buy slates, chalk (I would have suggested charcoal bt since u hv d money) and go back to ur village to start kindergarten afresh.You need the basis cramming is not a good tool for learning.

wade4500: [b] To the poster, I'm curious how you were able to graduate with 2.2 and not know a whole lot about what you studied? It baffles me greatly. Second, I can't comprehend this , other engineers on here should help me out, how you could cram engineering? It's virtually impossible and highly improbable to do that. Engineering school goal is to horn your critical thinking skills and ability to solve problems. This is why engineers are better thinkers than other professionals.

I attended FUTO Owerri; was an A student until I went to the US to continue. Ended up being a B student here. My point is; there no way you could graduate from any US engineering school and not know what you studied. Besides, you will give up in your first yr because it is very rigorous here than back home. Or they will ask you to leave. Happened to a Nigerian guy who came to study chemical engineering. Very much like you; didn't have a strong background in the fundmentals; guess what? He was a B student before he came here. In others he crammed or copied his way through school, and thought he could do the same here. He paid for it big time. Tried to copy here, the white students exposed him big time. First, he was warned and failed that class. Second, he was politely asked to leave the school. The guy is miserable now. Told him just go and study something easier. Not everyone is born to be an engineer by US/abroad standard. Obviously he would have become an engineer in Nigeria like you had he stayed back home.

The spine of my post is there many Nigerian engineers who are very much like you; know they were incapable of studying engineering but still continue because they are confident they will cheat their way through school. I can tell you, you can never do that in US. YOU MUST USE YOUR BRAIN AND KNOW what you are studying or they will rid you out and tell..you don't belong here.

This thread had better be a joke. No grown man that has passed through a secondary school can possibly think like this. Good luck with your Ph.D! Hopefully, you'll be able to get your entry-level Chevron job by the time you're done at the age of 47!

Even if you crammed to to obtain a 2.2 did you not do practicals?Put your practical experience to work. Yes,education is good but that does not mean it must be a do or die.Every professional in his own field of expertise is an apprentice in another's field. Go on with your business.Who knows may be one day one of these Nigerian Universities can award you a Phd by the success of your business and contribution to Nigeria.

Was it 1st class that you acquired from a degree in agriculture that made you what you are today? it is no doubt that you are a millonaire. I hereby wanna tell you exactly wat you are.
You are an ingrate and i do not believe that you will make 3rd class in your next degree, just come unilorin.
agric is a time consuming career and yours is still not fully matured, going back to uni and loss what you laboured for, graduate and come back to square one.
I see you as someone who will mislead his children if proper care is not taken, do not impose on them.
I am undergraduate of mechanical engr. unilorin, i know what it takes to gradute in engineering, take it or leave it bro cramming is inevitable.

Why do you want to go back to school, and then write ICAN while in school? Have you thought about the ASUU strikes. If you've given this a whole lot of thought and you feel, you still want to stay in the field of finance, why don't you go for ACCA then? You'll also get a degree with your ACCA if you opt in for the degree programme too. This doesn't add to your stress really, you'll only write a project at the end of the day.

Don't let people discourage you, but be sure this is what you want to do.

I appreciate your concern for doing better and the will to improve yourself.

But here are my thoughts:

1. If you MUST sit for any professional Accounting certfication, then go for ACCA instead of ICAN. ACCA will give you better leverage and recognition, although it is more capital intensive

2. Dont be too sure of achieving a CFA in 3 years, although it may be possible. CFA is a hard nut to crack and accoding to the CFA Institute itslef, the average period it takes people to get qualified is about 4 years. The average pass rate is between 30-45% and people may write a particular level for years.(there are 3 levels)

My Suggestion:
Your 2.2 in Metallurgical & Material Engineering is not bad.
What you need is to consolidate and improve with higher knowledge/qualification. If I were you, I would look for any of the new/emerging special fields in Engineering that are related to your course e.g MECHATRONICS, or NANO TECHNOLOGY etc. You can obtain Masters in this area(s) from a very good university in the UK within 1 year with an option for paid placement(temporary work). This would give you a bridge of knowlegdge in Mechanical and Electronic Engineering......giving you a very good edge in your Engineering field.

You may then proceed to add an MBA in order to get a feel of Management and managerial expertise to apply in your professional career.

My brother,Engineering qualifications are still the hottest and most sought after in the Nigerian job market....do a thorough analysis and you would realise what I am saying. MSc in Mechantonics will make you relevant in the 2 hottest Engineering fields...Mechanical and Electronics

I am an Accountant by qaulification(although with good background in the sciences) but I am looking forward to get a degree/ certification in an Engineering/IT field one day.

Jarus: Dear Jarus.

I came across your write-up online and for me you are God-sent, a blessing to our generation. I am 32 years old and a graduate of engineering (metallurgical and material engineering). I was able to make a 2-2. But my brother, I decided not to look for white collar job because I don’t want to keep lying to myself. Although I made 2-2 through hard work, I must confess I obtained that through cramming. My problem was poor fundation(o level).

Now I want to fully go into private business (livestock farming and exportation of agro commodities). I have 2 plots of land and 5 million for this business.But I still don’t feel satisfied without good and sound education. My plan is to go back and start from O’ level while I am doing my business.

My plan goes thus:

O’level (2 years)

1st degree in finance (4 years)

While pursuing my first degree, I plan to write ICAN too

Then, CFA (3 years)

Then, MBA in Finance (2 years)

Finally, PhD in Finance (4 years) – this one may not be in Nigeria.

Please, I want you and wonderful team to advice me. Is it going to be waste of time and resources? Is it going to add value to my life as a business man? Is it going to help me to become a financial expert and an investment expert? And maybe going into part-time lecturing in the future.

My brother I need urgent advise and please don’t publish my details.



Thank you and God bless.
