I finished year one with a cgpa of 2.50 They just released the results of two courses for 200L first semester and I had F, (3 credit load each) it is very painful because I read my books. Anyway I want to ask if it's still possible to graduate with a good 2.1 I study physics by the way. very much possible cos am a living testimony of your situation. just keep studying hard |

IT IS VERY POSSIBLE FOR IT'S NOT OVER UNTIL IT'S OVER! It's not over until it's over because it's all about putting your trust in God. First, you just need to understand what you are studying. Second, try to calculate the needed points to make a 2:1. Third, try to know where you can minor in that will boost your CGPA, especially 3 unit courses. Read like your life depends on it! Shun social life! Buy all the recommended materials and read them. Be targeting As and at least Bs, especially As in 3 units courses!!! Read for the tests like you read for the exams, mingle with first class and 2:1 students and share thoughts with them. Attend lectures. And always answer all questions in your exams, not forgetting to understand what your lecturers want. Understand their requirements as far as answering questions is concerned. Pray! Pray! A good friend of mine was once in your shoes. And he made a 2:1! Whatever happens in the end, you'd be fulfilled and justified that you did your best. It's better to fight and lose than not fight at all. Do your best and leave the rest for God to decide. I wish you all the best as you do your best! 2 Likes |

This is naija oh.. start gathering money for sorting and every every... plus read like mad.. so when you write exam you should back it up with sorting for upgrade.. because looking at the trend of Fs you have now ehhh.. I'm not certain u can make 2.1 on your own oh. You should also know that it gets tougher as you progress. |

brandon180:Bro I finished my first year with 2.00 CGPA with 4 carryovers, second year with 2.56 or so but from my second semester second year the least GPA I had was 4.40 others was first class GPA till I graduated, I even had 5.0 twice and I studied Industrial Chemistry, involved in Students representative of my local government both national and local, was a top worker in my fellowship throughout my 5 years in the university both as a V.P, Secretary, AGS, Ag. President and also was the course rep of my program and an academic director of SCSN (Students Chemical Society of Nigeria) if I can still graduate with 3.80 CGPA Second class upper with all this put together my brother you don't have excuse to graduate less. Note: am a lover of God and I don't joke with my spirituality while in school cos it helped me a lot. Just drop this to encourage somebody out there who is about to give up academically, listen to me its not how you start that matters but how you finish. I pray for you as Steve Farrar said in his Book finishing Strong, You will FINISH STRONG AND WELL IN JESUS NAME, AMEN. Shalom 30 Likes 3 Shares |

You need an average of at least 4.2 GP every semester assuming that you get 2.5 again in your 200L first semester. (2.5*3)+(4.2*5) If you fall less than 4.2 in a semester you have to compensate for the deficit in the next semester. It's possible but requires a lot of hard work and dedication. All the best brandon180: |
Re: Is Second Class Upper Still Possible.?? by Nobody: 10:17am On Jul 27, 2019 |
lorenzos1: Ture, first year first semesters are always like that. First you calculate the least gp you will have for the remaining 5 semesters that will stoll lead to 2.1 When you read and write exam don't write to pass, Aim for the A so if you fall las las na B or C, avoid C's they will do you no good. If you do IT that semester you aim to hit the A with the full unit and the whole of 300level you will get Atleast a 4. Gp The truth is that you need to make Atleast 4.0 every other semester till you grad. |

Nothing is impossible for God all you need is to sow a seed ( hard work, work smart by reading earlier if possible at the begining of each semester,treat past question,befriend those that knows above you humble urself attend lectures even if it seems you are bored at least you still have 2 to 3 yrs more.i started with 3.40 in year one and i still make 2:1 now in 400l (elect/elect). Avoid c grade in all courses and you will see yourself reaching that 2:1 be optimistic bro |

Hmmm. I can categorically say this from experience, you have built a very weak foundation for yourself. Studying Physics with Electronics wasn't childs play back then in Uni, just do your best and pray. Take the pressure that you want 2.1 of you and help yourself by loving your course and make it a daily routine engaging your lecturers. |

brandon180: U have the answer to your question, no one here does. Pick a biro, calculator and your course handbook assign grades to all your courses up until final year check out what final cgpa you get repeat the process until you get a final cgpa in the 2.1 domain now work your ass out to ensure you get this grades until ur graduate knowing that anything short of it takes you our of 2.1 know listen, if u must bribe to sort yourself out in school do it, dont look back, make no mistake, pay that money and get your grades. Nigeria has no room for explanation, when you graduate u would understand that the 2.1 itself makes no sense out here 5 Likes 1 Share |

Dude! Am not too sure the school you are, or how determined you can be. But if you sit and calculate your CGPA and you feel you can still make a 2.1 with 5 semester to go, then I tell you YES!! You can graduate with a 2.1. On the other side, I will advise you to focus more on your studies, nothing is impossible. Build yourself!! Attend seminars and workshop, volunteer in projects, mix with the brilliant dudes. MAKE THEM YOUR FRIENDS. They will motivate you. Volunteer and do minor courses that will get you some petty certificates and endorsement. They will help you in later days. Be prayerful and trust your instincts.. Move with people that shares the kind of future you wish for. God help us all brandon180: 1 Like |
