@op, during my I T days in NIHORT, my colleagues and I thought your so call fed uni students some fundamental principles of their works which I expected their lectures to have thought them. Also, 2012 was another year state university defeated your OAU students under their roof before we were robbed in UI later that months in a similar academic competition. OP, I won't buy the idea of fed students better than state.... LAUTECH will match u strength for strength.... I stand to be corrected o

ghostwritter: I emerged d best of students in my faculty....not because I was academically brilliant but because I was sooo smart.
THE BETTER BY FAR!!

mrbillz: yes, you got it right bro. My department is still on the verge of producing a first class student since inception....
EKSU plant science department....

LARRYDKING:

Holy Jezz! That's how we think on a faceless forum my broda, life @ my end has made some give up on life

adeoladrg: Op you're very wrong!

I was a unilag diploma student some years back. Diploma cutoff for pharmacy was 116. I scored 120. A girl who scored 95 got her admission letter before me. I was shocked! I later learnt the VC had his own list, registrar had her own, even the Oba of Lagos had his own, so it depends on who you know.. People who didn't even know these people found some other ways to 'leg' their ways through..

My brother, except you want to deceive urself, it's a normal Nigerian syndrome.

@OmolodMilkman93 Thanks bro.. My diary is down. I'll open a new one soon.

Tessy10: Could this be as a result of 'idleness/boredom'?...initially it was the comparism between polytechnic students and university students (HND VS BSC) now its between federal/state universities...sigh..NIGERIA my country my country...#better change

HarrveySpecter: All na wash, whether 2.2 from unilag, unn, ilorin, havard, oxford, yale.
If KPMG, TOTAL, NLNG advertise vacancy for graduate, you no go apply!

So stop deceiving/consoling yourselves.


Meanwhile, 2.1 from a polytechnic in zamfara, or state uni in Jigawa will apply.

LARRYDKING:



so are u saying something special is happening in the federal unis nt happening in the state'? And what's the 'white house OAU' abt?

luvola: Op is talking trash. At the end of my 100level days in the year 2007 at lasu ( Department of accounting ) , a friend of mine left my department with a cgpa of 3.52 struggling to make second class upper gained admission to Unilag accounting. This guy graduated with cgpa of 4.89 two years ago whereas we didnt even have first class in my class when we graduated yet 2 of my course mate bagged overall best student in ICAN ATSWA in the whole of west Africa and P.E 1 overall best. This op is high on weed.

LARRYDKING:

why una dey behave like dis nw? I'm tired of correcting people on this, i didn't compare federal and state, i only made a point using state uni.

busterr:

oboy are you sure you witnessed the four walls of any university at all? You're talking out of your as$ here.
Just like the state uni, fed unis are not 100 percent merit!! People still work their ways through Nigerian unis with money whether state or federal, that's why if you hear some undergraduates/graduates speak, their grammertical expressions makes one cry.

Back to your topic, nobody wants to pass out with anything less than 2'1, but sometimes, students fail because they don't take their studies serious, the lecturers are lazy to mark the scripts right, some are just unlucky.
Just like the famous saying ''examination passes no clever''

LARRYDKING: If u've heard of or experienced the several rigorous tests and screening students of federal varsities have passed through before been offered admission, u'll only but agree with me that it's just the best brains in Nigeria that attends federal schs.

Unilag for example have the policy of admitting candidates who generally merit there admission irrespective of the number. Even thier supplimentary list is always choked up with students who have high score but could not still merit the requirementss. Very good examples of such requirements as it affects all engineering candidates/aspirants of the sch is the possession of at least a credit pass in F-maths at O/level, having a minimum of distinction frm a polytechnic before been quailfied for direct entry among others. After all these, some of their students still graduate will third class and pass.

OAU is another sch where where students who merit their admission can sit at home and expect their names in the first admission list of the sch, same applies in U.I and other federal schs.

Apology to the students of the state unis but this does nt happen in state unis, scoring high and meriting admission requirements cant be totally used as a yardstick for admission, just a phone call frm a prominent member of the society will secure one admission. So if they make 3rd class, we can't really blame anyone for it.

After beating all these requirements to be offered admission into the federal university, why do some students still make as low as 2.2, 3rd class and pass from their schools with all the tests they have passed showing their academic prowess

juniorades: 2 2 at unilorin is beta dan 2.1 in any university in nigeria, cum n I xperience it urself even phd student done read dere brain comot

Orikinla: A graduate with First Class at LASU may not be as brilliant as the graduate with 2.2 at UI or OAU in the same course.

LARRYDKING:

source pls It's nt that i dont believe u, i'll just like to read d full details myself, something must be wrong somewhr. BTW, what's the name of the uni? See, if a 2.86 could beat OAU's best student in any test, he can definately beat the best student of his own sch too in such test. Tell me what i dont knw abt the test.
