Black subhumans that have been unable to do anything with their so called First Class degrees. Apes. Bonobos. The gorillas have first class degrees, but they can't build a city wide sewage system.

Nigerian education is fundamentally flawed ,first class or no first class. It lacks common sense and cognitive intelligence and that is core reason why it is unproductive You can't be studying in a university that lacks all the basic infrastructures in the 21st century and expect to reason properly. It does not show any sign of learning when you lack all the basics of life,especially in an institution of higher learning where problems are main to be solved.

So now I see why it seems most Nigerians seem to grad with First class from UK universities.

All I would say is if you graduated with any kind of second class just go for a masters because 2.2 would become the new 3rd class and 2.1 become the new 2.2

The labour market is already getting filled with many UK graduates. And Covenant university just emboldened other private universities not to hold their students back from 1st Class by producing about 10% First class degrees. Many public universities like Unilag and UI are already seeing that they put their Alumni at a unique disadvantage in the labour market by intentionally downgrading them academically. So the public university system would become more liberal as the years go bye.
Lalasticlala

You're very right. This is something I have been saying for years. There is no pride in boasting that to graduate with a first class from your institution, faculty or department is difficult. Education shouldn't be a burden or a struggle. A student who is worthy of a 1st class should be awarded with it on merit.

Surprisingly, even some students take pride in the fact that to graduate with a first class in their university is difficult. This mentality must change.

Not one who wud impose textbooks on u and fail u for not buying or tell u grade A is for God or his dead ancestors

Those who do sciences, engineering and medical courses and studied both in Nigeria and abroad wud see the huge difference between modern 21st century education and archaic system of education in Nigeria with dilapidated labs and if there are equipment they are old model and that is y our graduates trained locally can never measure up to d challenges of d 21st century. Not to talk of outdated curriculum as some of our lecturers still give their notes of 80's to students in 2017

What of incessant strikes by ASUU, NASU, SSANU that wud make a student spend more years than necessary when he or she must ve spent years waiting to get in, in the first place.

No wonder our looters in power send their kids abroad to school cos they know the wide gap between our educational system abroad and what u ve home. Even the least rated school in Europe and America is far ahead of our so called presitgious ivory towers if they even ve any prestige at all.

Also, the excellent performance of Nigerian students abroad attests to d fact that if given the right environment, Nigerians would always excel even far beyond set expectations. But sadly, most of the abundant talented youths whose skills should ve been nurtured, groomed,mdeveloped and subsequently harnessed for the good of all rots away.

Nigeria is a ground for destroying destinies but when some are able to succeed the useless country would always want to identify with success they never made any contribution to.

U see many Nigerians who ve excelled in their chosen fields abroad and when they make waves the useless govt wud want to identify with them as if they did anything to contribute to d success of that individual and obviously if that person had been in Nigeria is 101% certain that such individual may never have gotten to d peak of their career perharp some may ve died
Re: UK Universities With The Highest First Cass Degrees by reiddecuti: 5:58pm On Jul 27, 2017
And its very hard yo record 30% of 2.1 in our universities not to talk of 1st class.

The only country lectures will be proud enough to tell you that 85% of students fails his course and it will be so at semester end.

Tell them o. I am waiting for someone to say OAU is better than imperial college because oau produces a very lower percentage of first class. Many Nigerians should become more informed before blabbing.

the argument was never "OAU is better than covenant" ... The argument is that :

a 2.1 in covenant is a poor/below-average student in covenant as he is only in the 33rd percentile

while a 2.1 in OAU is well above an average student in OAU as he is likely in the 75th percentile

so unless you assume that students in covenant are generally more than twice as sharp as students in OAU, the OAU 2.1 student is a better student than the covenant student

this is statistics

Public school lecturers are actually haters of success. I know one prof in the school I attended, he goes by the name "Prof Amagh Nduka", in the department of physics. I heard that when he schooled in U.I he graduated with a 3rd class but went to the U.S and came out with a first class. Since this man became a lecturer, students in his department hardly come out with a 2.1, talk more of a 1st class.
Do u mind that slowpoke? A guy later made a first class in that industrial physics department of his.

If the schools are Nigeria now, some dumb people will tag the schools 'bad', 'Cheat', 'weak' because of the high number of first class grads
Those universities are among the best in the UK and attracts the best high school leavers in the UK. The question now is, Do covenant and other private universities in Nigeria attract the best secondary school leavers, the answer is NO.

When you are making comparisons between Covenant and OAU let's put in remembrance that the classification of degree should actually represent the knowledge base of each students. what is the point of comparing an OAU's 2:1 with that of CU when most likely the 2:1 from OAU may not know how to handle or operate a particular facility which a 3rd class from CU might be able to do.

So the most important thing is not the comparative value of these degrees but the knowledge value each student has.

Admittedly, there are 2:1 students from public universities who would make First class in CU because of the conducive environment and smaller class size but that is an issue we should take up with the Government. But the problem here is that ppl are saying the private universities are the problem for graduating 'many' first class graduates but the truth is the public universities are the ones that should step up and award people their rightful degree class.

The answer is YES! I really wish I can find a document that reflects the jamb score of most CU fresh men. ppl make the mistake of comparing CU to the likes of Baze university or Chrisland. CU has an admittance rate of 60% and admits the best of the Elite class and Middle class. Those folks schooling in places like Ambassadors college, Corona college, Doregos, Loyola Jesuit e.t.c Admittedly CU is almost closed to talent from the poor class bit we are trying to attract them with targeted scholarships which Criteria is being poor and having a minimum of 5As in one sitting of Olevels.

As regards UK universities. believe me if you have your cash and academically average you can school in any UK school you desire to. Most people flocking to UK are not necessarily talented. The talent hunt for most prestigious universities start at postgraduate level where the quality of students admitted could invariably determine the quality of research and then the ranking of the university. Hence most scholarships are usually targeted for postgraduate education.

Well, in Uk, the lecturers aren't as bitter and wicked as the ones we have here. For instance, one of our lecturers told us 'anatomy dept can never produce a 1st class because they (lecturers) can't let us do so. 'According to him if we did, there's a chance we could get a job in the department and they simply couldn't allow that.
You see, can you just imagine what is coming out from the mouth of the lecturer who is supposed to be your adviser and source of encouragement. Nigeria is a failed state.

You've done well with your arguments. It's the same thing I've been saying. That students fail in a particular school or course doesn't make it the best.

Another thing I've discovered is that, schools in the east convocate less first class graduates than the west. For instance, a school like UNN will convocate less than a 100, but Unilag will be above 100. Schools in the east have to up their game. The suffer head mentality is not a good one.
