Allen kee: Every serious student that gains admission into tertiary institutions has the aim of graduating with a first class/distinction degree but the reality shows that the number of first class students in Nigeria’s tertiary institutions is on the decline. Nigeria Education Portal ® gives steps which if diligently followed will enable every student who aspires to make a first class in school to do so with ease.

1) Get serious from the first day
It is common for students to get carried away with the euphoria of gaining admission into higher institution that they forget the major reason why they are in school. It is essential to start building your grade point from the first day so as to avoid playing catch up afterwards.

2) Attend Lectures
While attending lectures may not be so important in your first year in school as most courses are what you must have already learnt previously in your secondary school and the large number of students in lecture rooms in your first year may not make attending lectures enticing however after your first year, attending lectures must be a priority, this is enable you mark attendance in class which may be the difference between an A or a B, pick salient points which the lecturer may mention in class and to pick instructions and tips which lecturers usually give in class.

3) Understand your Lecturer(s)
As all human beings differ in various characteristics so do your lecturers differ in the way they want things to be done. While some may prefer you to understand their notes only, others may prefer you to research more on your own after giving you notes, others may depend solely on past questions and so on. It is very essential to understand each lecturer who comes to lecture you. This might be done by seeking advice from students who have taken courses taught by the lecturer.

4) Don’t build serious relationships with the opposite sex
It is very essential to keep only platonic relationships with the opposite sex while in school. This might be very difficult especially if you are a pretty lady or a handsome guy but the truth is if you keep any serious relationships, it will eat out of your valuable time you would have spent studying.

5) Learn to study
This usually is the most difficult part of a student’s life as different distractions exist in the higher institution but unfortunately this is the most important step on your way to making a first class in school. While most students are fond of deceiving themselves by either sleeping and waking in the library without actually studying, it is very essential to give at least 2 quality hours studying every day.

6) Rub mind with others
No man is an island, no matter how hard you study you can never know it all, there will still be some few things which you still would not know but someone else’s could help you with and save you a lot of time trying to decipher how to go about the problem.

7) Put God first
Always remember that God is the owner of all knowledge and gives only to those who he wishes to. Learn to always put God first before every lecture, test or exam. He is the only one who can see you through.

Mr Mac-10:
Go and make first class money and stop fooling urself with first class Bill Gates said and i quote My classmate was a straight A student he works for microsoft I own Microsoft

Remember, everybody can't be a Bill Gate or super rich. If everybody should be a Bill Gate, who will do tђε̲̣̣̣̥ dirty job?
No matter how rich tђε̲̣̣̣̥ people of a society A̶̲̥̅̊я̲̣̥ε̲̣̣̣̥, Ɣ☺ΰ will always find tђε̲̣̣̣̥ poor.

IN A FEDERAL / STATE UNIVERSITY

(1) 1st class is for people that are exceptionally intelligent.

(2)Second class upper is for students dat are above average

(3)Second class lower is for those students that are average

(4)3rd class is for those students below average.

(5)pass is for those students that are never serious.

Advising a normal student in a public university on how to make first class is like advising Osaze Odewinge on how to be the world best foothballer.

Never you neglect the power of natural gift

Hmm.. First Class...

Objection My Lord, U can Mingle well with d opp sex (wit maturity) and come out with flying colours - dont dispute that..

U must av d mindset frm day1 and nt by Fire Brigade approach..

And seriously, going to Bowen, Redeemers, Convenant, JABU, et al gives u 90% guaranty (if conditions are met). As far as public skus are concerned, ther r uncertainties to tackle even if all ur listed recommendations are undertaken...

And mind u, ther is no decline in d num of first class, Naija has been recording increase..

Also, U CANT BUY A FIRST CLASS Degree and av NEVA seen a Dull First Class Graduate, haters, go and follow those steps and stop talking abt runs (it will only fetch u a 2.2 cos u were heading for a Pass)

smithsammy: what a pity. See how this young man is killling himself with ignorance. Your Failure is guarranteed without God.

Its people like you and others calling me "atheist" that turn our universities into crusade grounds where peace is disturbed and people waste their time babbling in the name of prayer and telling new entrants stories about how prayer made a lecturer incompetent in marking just to pass the very religious boy.which God is gonna help me pass?obatala?allah?jehovah?
No God has ever put anything into anyone's brain to write in an exam.keep praying and let us "atheists" keep reading.We'll see who's better.

So wole soyinka has been a failure or fela was a failure because he "excluded god"? I still ask which god because all adherents of religion can back their own gods up.IMO I think you became so afraid of being different that you caved into believing such things.Hard work pays and I repeat,no god has ever buillt a stretch of road or a house or awarded marks.

One thing I know for sure is to make a first class,you either have to be naturally gifted or you are the type that can read for long consecutive hours without tiring.To every student has the ability to make first class is absolutely wrong.From what I have seen over the years,besides doing a lot of things right,you have to be divinely favoured to make a first class..

Also try to stay out of ur lecturers way,don't do any form of notice me especially d ladies
Re: How To Make A First Class Or Distinction In School by Nobody: 4:19pm On Sep 21, 2013
These points are important if you want to get a good grade. However, getting a good grade is only like 2 percent of the work so don't be too obsessed with it. When you graduate, you'll face the real world and then realise that very little of the stuff you learnt in school applies in the real world.

Those that start preparing for the real world right from school make it faster. Ask Bill Gates and Mark Zucherberg, they'll tell you.

hardbody: I did not play by any of the rules and started my first year with a third class result, joined all the bad companies and frats at year 3 and still graduated 2nd Upper. Today I am happy that the uni passed through me. I can hold my own anywhere both academically and otherwise
you must have graduated from Uniben where you can graduate with first class even when your CGPA is around "Pass" in first year
