It happened in my final year in school, this Yeye lecturer gave us assignment @ the beginning of the semester which was to submitted 1 week b4 final exams, typical me didn't do it till the day of submission and I was the last person to submit. Na so the man tell me say b'cos of your stupidity u will fail and just said thank you sir and left. Happen that I met a friend outside and I related what the man said nd I told him I wasn't going to fail instead na the man pikin go fail not knowing the man was behind me. Fast forward to the exam business policy and analysis, a course which even if I don't read I will pass, na so I see 18/100 F, I was the only one that failed the course, but God pass the man as I still graduated with my mate.

It happened in my second semester engineering drawing exam. It was a very easy course and i did it excellently.
On my way to submit my drawing sheet there was a stampede because the examiner threatened to leave the hall, in the whole brouhaha one idiott just somehow got my paper torn badly. I cellutaped it but the damage had already been done and my engineering drawing lecturer is very particular with neatness of work.
After the results came out, i checked mine and saw a funny result. All A's and one F. shocked The guy just stopped me from getting a neat 5.0. My friends and classmates were asking me ''how come na?''.
I was livid with anger.I retook the paper and i got my A. grin

I never had an F during my undergrads. But I really think having an F is better than E because you get another chance to make good grades in that same course.
mhen, itz a lie o.......better u get the E nd surge forward

Had my first 'F' in year three of a five year course.

My insistence on calling for my script payoff in the short term by eventually having a 'D' in that course. The resultant long-term effect was a string of Fs in 4th and 5th year.

It was phy 123, in fut everyone knws d course capability, nd I expected d F, so no hard feelings, but I av one problem, if I'm to keep Writin dat course I'll keep failin it. So I kept prayin fr miracle to happen. D next 2 yrs d course was scraped, I felt like an angel d day I hear it's scraped.

Not to brag, I have not seen any f on my result, and I thank God for that! The closest was E, in a 4 unit course, it was fatal, buh I still thank God, and I pray it would be the first and last I would ever have... To the jambites, pls read this thing and pass it once and for all, pls, F is really bad.

What difference does A or F make in Nigeria?

Nigerian graduates are mostly educated-illiterates who cannot innovate and develop the country - Chinese prisoners and Indian slum dug low level expat workers are superior to Nigerian PHD holders!

Hello nairalanders, I will like meaningful contributions here on this topic.

I believe the yet to resume jambites or those yet to even write jamb will learn from this. So pls kindly share your experience, what you did to overcome the setback.

What were the things you did or didn't do that made you fail or you think made you fail?

Also were you given "f" as student would say or you obtained it.

pls share.

no, pls don't jump into conclusion, just because your brain was as clean as an empty bottle when you graduated, does not mean every graduate was like you. Get the facts straight, we have intelligent peeps doing great things.
