Danny4show:
i taught as much..that is the kind of saddists we have in that school..imagine 3.49... cant advise him to stay back though but it would be better to get that 2:1...but unilorin i knw is not an institutiin you can have 100percent confidence of making that 2:1 even after spending another year in school..so he should choose wisely..

without reading the content of your post I knew it would be Unilorin. I am quite familiar with the system of this school.

Before I comment on your post let me briefly share you my experience in that school.

I am/was a student of that school. Since the day I entered that school I never conceded any carry over till 500 level(1st semester) when I played with a particular 1unit course (I say 1 unit course ).I met the man in charge the course through the H.O.D, level adviser and some senior lectures but to no avail than to register the course(automatic extra year) which i did.(plus any 4 unit courses to make it 5 units)
if not because my 2.1 cgpa was very strong, I would not been able to graduate with my 2.1.(To God be the B15 in my mind because i have checked my result)
I don't want to mention my department and faculty because this forum is a small world(because there was a post someone posted about Unilorin.The lecturer commented on it in the class the following day )

If i were you, i would have accepted my faith like that because of the following reasons:

(i) what is the certainty that you will graduate with that 2.1 if you spill over? because you should not have less that B's or at worst ONLY one C in the course you register.

(ii) is it only by the grade you can make it in life?.who told you can not prove your 2.2 better that 2.1. ?

(iii) have it at back of your mind that you will wast your money, energy and your precious time.

(iv) Although, the chance of getting the job during nysc is slim but some are achieving it.token amount from Nysc will reduce burden from your parent.

My advice: You can only re-register if and only you have someone/company awaiting you a job with 2.1 (because there are many jobless 2.1 out there) and that will serve as drive/motivation to achieve your goal-2.1.

He is a friend and my reading patner. He just discovered his cgpa is 3.49, the department said they cant upgrade him because he failed a course in his final yr and they have waived the course. So they cant do him two favours. He is so sad and he is contemplating to let the department leave that failed course and spend extra year. Another issue now is he is 29 and will not go for service if he spent extra year. Pls Advice!

Danny4show:
let him give it a shot... 2:1 is worth spearing a year..
my token though

1st of all,dat course adviser no try at all..if d man wanted to trully help d guy,he cud do it without d dept knowing,even after d waving..but den again it depends on d num of students grad with a 2 1 in that dept,if they were much,d dept wudnt hepl unnecessarily...

secondly,d guy shud try his possible best to meet any lecturer that took him in a final yr course nd reason well nd beg d lecturer to upgrade his score,mayb from a d to a c or from a c to b..they are human nd wud understand..

3rdly,is it a 1st semester course or 2nd that was waived?cos if its 1st,its an xtra semester..

my final advise for d person...in as much as grade is not a determinant of success,if he is willing to really study hard,he shud stay d xtra year,cos if he eventually makes that 2 1 ,it wud b worth it..he needs every possible advantage he can get..Godspeed nd God bless

cc lalasticlala...pls move to poermanent site

golddeejay:
the course is in 2nd sem. he got 2 know very late, they dont release final yr result. He got d info thru an insider. All the lecturers have submitted their scoresheets and they have sat over it. The only hope he has is dat the senate are yet to sit, maybe they may have mercy on him. That chance is slim because those people love deducting frm Gp than adding to it.

dubylhover:


well..its a pity..if hv trully feels he can concentrate nd make d 2 1..hv shud go for it...but it wont b easy as he might think
