.....I heard 3.0 is now the standard cut off for those that want to do their masters.how true is this?

Many second class lower holders have to do a pgd first if your gpa is below 3.0

If you want to do a Masters degree inn another discipline (from when you had your first degree, even if u had 1st class there),
you will still have to do a PGD in the new field

Please Elaborate Sir

Thanks for the info,i tot of doing mine in NOU,pls how good and how recognised is their cert?

if u have d option of doing it in a state or fed Nuc accredited university,it's better u choose d option..There r so many controversies with regards to NOUN..i don't think u will want to put urself into such controversies considering d complicated situation u are in..May God grant u wisdom in making a good decision.

personally, I think what people lack is information. I have seen young people that knows not what is next. kindly note that 3rd class can improve and be better for job placements, I have many as friends and family all we keep doing is to look for alternative degree to back up the 3rd class grade. some had to do PGD and some professional certificate. I think its depend on the field of study, for example I dont see how someone with 3rd class in geophysics can improve his certification with a PGD rather a specific geophysical certificate programme can open doors for him or her. pls I will advice all young people with such degree cadre to seek information before wasting cash and time on any programme. The next bailout is what you should seek. The job employment field is too competitive. be wise.

Nobody is talking about funding. Many folks got their first degree by the grace of God and mostly going to cheap federal institutions, so for many the idea of going further after first degree is not a priority, priority is to get a job and start earning money, I suppose many respondents here don't fall in that category but that's the predicament of many

like some noted, people should try and avoid third class by all means I.e study hard but since its not possible for all of us to have first and second class, some will still have third class, also depending on the course eg. If you have third class in a course like business administration actually means you were either unserious or schooling isn't meant for you in which case I advice you go learn a vocational instead of following the ops advice of PGD and subsequently masters.

lastly, in Nigeria if you have the right connection you can get a government job with even a pass.

good encouragement .

Nice

Those with a third class degree can also find out universities that does degree or HND top programmes, this programme is designed for HND holders who want to stop the dichotomy of their certificates and bag a degree in less than two yrs and also third class degree holders that want to step up their degree to first class or 2:1. I know of kwasu they take 150000 for tuition and 15000 for form. I have someone who currently doing this programme.

Finishing school with first class, second class, third class or pass has nothing to do with life's success after school.

Have you heard that Timaya had 16 over 400 in jamb? But where is he now compared to some professor?

Life in the community is entirely a different ball game. Its now up to you to discover what you can do best while you are young.

this will be your tool for success. So, its not by third class. Do more for yourself

Education spices up your endeavor. Though Timaya succeeded without education, he would have been better off doing what he does now with education. Moreover how many uneducated successful Timayas can you find? He is an excerption that is why you easily named him. Say no to illetracy.

That's true

. LAUTECH IS RECOGNIZED AND ACCREDITTED. I DID MY MSC IN LAUTECH AND CURRENTLY AM S PHD CANDIDATE IN ANOTHER UNIVERSITY IN GHANA.

In life u need to define wot u realli want first... Then analyse the tools you need... Nt evrybody needs a good grade to succeed in life... But some surely nid it... But above all don't let d grades u get define your life... Put in ur best in school and put God first... Its well

In as much as a lot of those that didn't make it to higher education will like your post, let's not also forget that there are people that have made it to high points with their education. So don't try to tilt this issue only to a point where those that didn't score above 16 in jamb have reached. There are still people that won't make it in life without Education. Are we now encouraging our teenagers and youths to boycott school or what?

Wow

So third class plenty for Naija
