you keep telling all this small girls to sit down and read they won't listen you see them on every romance thread Facebook and whatsapp discussing about how handsome and caring their boyfriends are.

hahahahaha now this is the real definition of SAVAGERY see her profile pics sef.
Slay queen wey no fit slay GPA is that one a slay queen

Jarus:


Nothing is impossible, but all indicators point to you not being a first class material. I hate to say that.

Most first class grads have track record from secondary school. 204/400 in UME is not a first class material's score. Even worse, first class grads don't have "F parallel".

A more realistic graduation target for you is 2.1 (i.e CGPA of above 3.5/5.0) which is still good enough for the labour market, but the immediate concern should be how to avoid being rusticated. Put out the fire first.

Try and target B minimum in all your courses in the next semester. Read. Read. Read. Get academic high flyer mentors. Meet your seniors that did the courses in the previous year, ask for tricks for passing each of the courses.

When you put out the fire (i.e stabilize), then you can continue your long term target of graduating with a good grade.

am fairly intelligent . I just needed more time for myself to read for my tests and exams. Relationship problems and all that.

Amakababe:

Relationship problems and all that.

Amakababe:
but someone told me 100 level is just about 10% of whole year. That I need a 4.5 from 200 level to finals to bag first class

Bulletproof:
0.2?
Huh.....

I don't guarantee First Class sha... But it isn't impossible as other factors are involved.eg..tsunami results, bad-bellerism of lecturers etc..

But if you continue to slay with sweetness as per your dp.... You may be expelled due to poor result sef!

Be wise and stop slaying lest you be slayed!

@ emboldened. Until you accept that you're a dunce and work towards improving urself and be ready to take corrections then sorry is your case.


just look at yourself.
You're not read to learn. I pity you

sammyomal:

The Honest truth you said?
Graduating with a first Class with such opening gpa is definitely a negative.
If You know how it is with 10-8-8 in futminna then am sure you know you are already affected.

My advice, Even though the semester is short, Try hard to make a good gpa so your cgpa will at least be above 2 point.
Believe me it will be harder for any other department to take you in with a low cgpa after the whole 10-8-8 stuff.
I know alot of persons who had such issues during their 100l days too, now they are wel settled in other depa

GreyBlood:
You can do better when you work harder but definitely not with a first class. How can someone get a cpga of 0.2?

Now listen, your motive for schooling is faulty. There is no guarantee of work after schooling so hoping to make good grades just to get good job is skewed. Please study to acquire knowledge and not to get job.

The truth is that when you graduate from school you might never use all those things that were taught in school to survive in real life. When I was in school my friends and I studied and did everything possible just to obtain good grades but when we graduated I found out that there is life after school, there is life after getting good results. We graduated but found ourselves in different phases of life and some of those that made good results ended up getting jobs that were not that great, while some of those seemingly unserious ones who normally skip classes have already established one business or the other before we graduated and were better off immediately after school. I found out I've never used Pythagoras theorem, I found out I've never used Newton's Law of Motion to make a living. There is life after school and that should be your main purpose. You need to see beyond the school curriculum and activities, plan and ready yourself for tomorrow while you study.

So don't bother much about what you can't change, work hard to make better results after all the measure of success is not what you graduated with but how well you fared after school.

Before you accuse me of being dull, I had a 204 in JAMB.
I always wanted a first class, but
I decided to check my result yesterday only to see F parallel and some good grades out of 10 courses.
Pls am 22 and I need to pass so I can get a good job after graduation.
I know I didn't give my books much attention this semester.

I am confused because I will be asked to withdraw if I get a cgpa less than 2.0 on a scale of 5 after second semester and don't meet the 10-8-8 requirement which I am very far from.

Martinez19:
Amakababe, this one get as it be. For you to get that GP means any of the following:
1) Laziness or unseriousness.
2) personal problems eg. Brain being affected(smoking weed, doing hard drugs, drinking alcohol, online pornography and masturbation, abusing painkillers etc.), side hustle due financial hardness which may affect your schedule and give you little time for rest etc.

NB: Scoring 204 in jamb doesn't prove anything. It's not a great score for someone who wants to score first class in engineering and graduating with a first class doesn't mean that you will get a job. This is Nigeria.

If your problem is (1), you have to spend more time on your studies, work smart and spend all your energy and time on your studies. Don't set your mind on first class rather look to giving your best at any up coming test or exam..

Gerrard59:


The bold is not true. The lad who finished with a first class in my class and best in the faculty with 4.7 had 183 in JAMB, ditto the second who had 4.5 at 180. JAMB aka UTME score has nothing to do with performance in school. WASSCE does not UTME.

@Amakababe

If you REALLY desire the first class, I'd advise you write JAMB again. But then, you desire a good job and are 22; then strive to make a 2.1. Better still, change from engineering to something you can handle. From your results, it implies engineering ain't for you. You won't be the first person to attempt such. I know people who changed from Physics to Marine Biology or Food and Nutrition to Theatre Arts (how these ones succeeded, I've no idea).

That said, irrespective of course or department, heed to what Jarus has said - everything!

Look prayers are important, they help you believe that you can achieve. But if you don't read, hard, no amount of prayer will make you pass.
Someone who spend all his time reading effectively and does only 1 minute of prayer will still perform better.the one who spends equal time reading and praying.

Sit in front of the class during lectures.
Take down notes on what the lecturer is saying (comprehensive notes).
Make friends with people who are smart and can teach you.
Do not be swayed by youthful exuberance (clubbing, house parties, parambulating round the city, going out everytime, looking for relationship up and down). YOU DON'T NEED IT.
Ensure you read at least 12 hours a week (nothing less). Spread those hours as you deem fit.
Do not take assignments for a joke. They are more important than you think. DO ALL YOUR ASSIGNMENTS.
Before every test, ensure that you have fully covered all topics. Be prepared to pull an all-nighter. Lack of sleep before a test will not kill you. You can sleep all you want during holidays.
Have complete notes for all lectures, and ensure you read them all.
Always seek assistance from people who can help you in whatever you don't understand.
Aim for a 5.0 GPA with all your heart. It's easy to get if you put your mind to it.

If you can strictly follow all these, you should be able to pass well.

DrayZee:

You and the guy you quoted are on the same page.
His point is that a Jamb score doesn't define how smart a person is. So she being proud of her 204 is even more ridiculous as it isn't even impressive to begin with.
