Tell her to keep hustling with prayers! I have seen wealthy people and intelligent folks becoming poor within some few years. I have seen poor folks doing well with hard work and prayer and I have equally seen folks that is hardworking with good abilities but yet nothing works for them. Being successful in life is a function of time and chance, it is divine connection that matters!! John answered and said, A man can receive nothing, except it be given him from heaven. John 3.27 |

Just imagine what we have turned education into in this country! All I see is highest grades now been sold to highest bidder. This is the reason why a lot of us in this country are 'educated illiterate'. Private schools now brandish first class. While best brains who find themselves in state or Fedral school end up at best 2.1 if you don't part with settlement in terms of handout or sorting. But the good news is that once you know the stuff you are made just laugh it off and prove yourself. In my office I make a mockery of them and they know it am a 2.2 anyway but a true 2.1 with by practical. Here is my advice for all there's a day of reckoning, where you will be tested in that office. So study to show yourself approved. |

Law is very broad, tell your sister to look beyond being employed by organisations like banks or what have you's who only want 1st class and 2.2, the most important thing for any person in life not less so a lawyer is confidence... With confidence you can have a shit and still strut like you've got gold ore, tell her to look forward to choosing a specification in law where she knows she can be confident and excel, she can't take this mindset to law school not less so in life, I had a 2.2 in a state uni & a 2.2 in law school and from experience in legal practice its not about the grades it's about experience, effort, connections and the grace of God. I have a friend who's into real estate, this guy was academically feeble but he managed to have a pass in law school, he stuck to legal drafting and real property practice, and by the grace of God with some connections, he can just spend under an hour drafting a deed or legal instrument, and make more than the banking law practicing lawyers or even litigation lawyers make in 6 months. Having low grades in law school and uni won't even stop you if you can add more to your CV in professional courses and experience in aforesaid broad specifications of law, a friend of mine had a 3rd Class in Uni and still went for a LL.M program in International trade and investment law in Europe, with more experience and courses under his belt he'll be a hot cake in that field, rather than waiting for a bank who have their "standards" to employ legal graduates. The long and short of my epistle is tell your sis to change her mindset, be confident, work on getting connects in life, choose a specific area of law she's sure she can be confident in, get extra professional certificates to go, have working experience and give it her lung busting efforts, thereafter seek the grace of God, cos it's work and pray not pray and work or ordinary prayer. It is well OP, we shall all be successful but we have to be positive and avoid self pity, here's to seeing your sister excel in the legal field in years to come. 2 Likes 1 Share |

If the OP is the 2.2 degree holder, then I suggest you work harder on your English Language proficiency. The title of your post should read, 'what chance does a 2.2. holder have?' |

Op she stands a good chance. She jusr has to change her minset to be positive and be determined. Let her not be intimidated but should try to do better in law school. I guess you work in Access bank...that us one bank that hires 2.1. There is hope for her. Many banks hire 2.2 including diamond bank. |

Well, her only limitation exists in her mind. I have a 2.2 also. I have never had to look for a job. I have changed job twice since I finished NYSC in 2014. I currently work for a multinational. She just needs to prove her worth. |

[quote author=Antecote post=62357756]I know a lot of posts have been created concerning graduating with a 2.2 but I haven't come across any post with regards to having a 2.2 in law hence the reason for this post. My younger sister just graduated from a state university with a 2.2, which makes her a 2.2 llb holder, she graduated with a cgpa of 3.4. This has made her really depressed and sad as she has even refused to resume at the Nigerian law school. I work in a bank that hires only First Class and 2.1 so I know what individuals in other fields with a 2.2 go through now my question is this do 2.2 llb holders also go through this discrimination while searching for a job or their grades doesn't really matter so long they have been called to bar, what are the chances of success of a 2.2 llb holder please I really need opinion and advise because I really don't know how to speak to her or what to tell her, Please mynd44 this is very important Cc: lalasticlal.a and other lawyers in here. [/quote You claimed your bank employed firstee and two one that mean you're firstee or two one but you used "has" instead of "have" |

ask her, "why not kill yourself?" i mean, since her career revolves 'round a paper. well, i'm kidding. 2.2 isn't bad, considering the slim margin of scaling to 2.1. |

Antecote:. A lot of other factors are considered apart from grades. Although, most firms are attracted to you by your good grades and then it creates an opportunity for you to show other qualities. Meeting the person and quizzing her on what she did in 5 years as a student vis-a-vis law related and other events can also help. My take will be for her to first seek a very active firm and garner sufficient knowledge. She should work at being deft in a field of law. Then after two or three years, she should apply to bigger firms. By then, her experience and versatility in that field will come in place of the grade. But again, she still has the law school advantage. A first class or a second class upper will help to an extent. One hint is: While in the law school, let her choose a good firm for her externship and be up and doing (grade is not considered at this stage) She should also be well behaved. Then, that will give her an edge to serve there as a corps member. Those two chances make it easier for her to make a point. If she could convince them as a corps member by zeal and brilliance, getting a job with the firm should be easier. 2 Likes 1 Share |

at least, if you must criticize someone's grammar, make sure yours doesn't fall in much worse terrain of poor construction. |

First, ask your sister what is her own definition of success. (For some people, even working in a bank is a life of hardship).There was a time passing your WAEC exams was a guarantee of a comfortable life, but nowadays, having even a foreign masters degree is not guarantee a person will escape poverty. She should get with the times and understand that success in today's world will require a lot more than university degrees. Although they are kind of a minimum requirement. Learning and and gaining knowledge must never end if you're to make it. |

Being a lawyer with a 2.2 shouldn't bother her. She can make it up in law school and still enjoy a very beautiful legal career and earn well too. It just depends on how committed she is to the profession. She can make it and earn well. Cheer up girl |
