sad sad sad sad DNT KILL YOURSELF COS OF 2.1.The reality go show on ur face afta u graduate, go service and waka up/do2n while the sole of ur shoe bend.Those with 1st class are still struggling outside. Wish u well


This is a big lie. I have seen graduates who studied Marketable courses with first class and 2.1 who were below 27 that got nice jobs. Fine, it may not come immediately they finish NYSC but it will surely come if they do not relent.
My friend is a living witness, she graduated with a 3.60CGPA from UniAbuja and finished NYSC in 2016. She couldn't get a job till July last year which was a teller contract job at Wema bank. Fast forward to January this year, she attended Wema purple Academy training school, with her confirmation on the way in three months (November) if she can source for 3M target in deposit .
Her entry level monthly will be around 172k with 280k leave bonus yearly. And all these while she was at home attending interviews and tests, she was steadily collecting #30k Npower money.
So please don't say what you don't know.

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.
3 credit Unit courses wey u knack F?
omo mission abort, focus on how to get 2:2 cos me sef wey dey on 3.90 GP I still dey Battle make I no fall enter 2:2.
but there's hope in ur 300 level tho cos that's where ur cgpa really weighs.

Guy, it might still be possible u still have about 5 semesters to go... But u would need to sacrifice. I was in a similar situation while in Uni a long time ago, I made the decision and I ended up with a 2.1 and that 2.1 took me out of poverty.
Firstly u need to calculate the minimum GP u have to make each semester to make the 2.1.
Then have a written plan.
U might need to change your social circle start walking with d First Class students and follow their ways.
Think of it as a chance to better your life.
can u explain the bolded quote?
how did 2:1 take u out of poverty?

I'll give u this one advice and u better use it well
1.. Study everyday and apply dem on ur daily activities so as not to forget.... The internet and journals will be helpful and not social media, always put references of the lecturers in ur department when writing ur exams dey always love to see that for example the question is define physics? Ur answer should be according to prof( the lecturer's name) physics is defined as ............. And lastly go into exam hall with pencils so as to give a little sketch of the answer u are explaining as it applys to physics and don't forget examples too

Thank me when u graduate with a CGPA of 3.63

My brother the real truth is that u cannot make 2.1, even Ur 2.2 will be weak, thats less than 3.0



I studied chemistry bro


All these guys telling u that u can do it might be all these accounting, business admin, and sociology students.
Studying a science course differ from an social science course, when the level keep on getting to the top that's when u will know the course u ar studying, when u reach 300L no body will give u an A in IT and the courses at that level are top notch, very very complicated topics



Let me give u a new goal: jus try and graduate with Ur mate

You're so wrong, by the way what's special or difficult about chemistry?

I studied Geology/Geophysics and if really you know what studying abstract course is then you'll understand what it means studying this course yet I had same challenge but at the end I made it with a 3.56cgpa (upper division)

It only require some hard work and sacrifices. Also I don't what your school or department is like because I have seen some lecturers envious of their students and grades, so sometimes intentionally do shit with their results.

Be it as it may, it's very possible with determination, focus, hard work and sacrifices for God only help those who help themselves.

I did some chemistry courses because we needed it for GEOCHEMISTRY. If you find yourself studying what you truly like I doubt you'll see it difficult unless you're doing a course not meant for you.
Imagine how awkward you be studying fine art when you can't draw even a cup let alone molding. No course is easy, it only takes passion and hardwork to make it easy.

Yes, very possible.

But, you'll have to work super hard.

My Year One CGPA was 2.6, and I graduated with a 2:1, top 5 in the class.

PS: I lost most of my social life working for this.

I studied the Most Difficult course in the world, Architecture.
Architecture is not the most difficult course in the world

now you are contradicting yourself, i wasnt saying being grounded in statistics would help u increase ur CGPA, y will i say that.....u told him to get skills, and u mentioned lots of statistical packages, now what i was saying was, u cant just tell someone to learn this softwares without being extensively grounded in statistics,because without it you ll just be on d surface, you decision making and drawing of inference will be bad, that's all i never said it will help u build GP
So you mean to be good in infographics or graphics design I need to be grounded in mathematics geometry....?

I love the spirit. But u see bro, if u truly believe in ursef as ur statement depicts, then u shouldn't have brought up this issue on a platform like Nairaland.

Don't just read,be smart about it,I was like u years ago in d university ,my advice is,study past question of those subject,Nigerian lecturers are lazy,especially engineering,physics or any technical field,they like to repeat question,u can take like five years past question of d subject and study ,am sure u wount regret it.by d way I studied electrical,I got d scope in my 300l,and it worked for me,

Bro, nobody will ask u to define .......... in physics.. I read physics and i can categorically tell u dis.. Op should improved on its maths skills and be ready to reason like a psyco.... if not, that slim 2.5 will just slide and hang somehwere around 1.

You might be reading and if you don't understand what you are reading, you might not pass your exams

Be more focused and committed, stay away fro social media, it's the major distraction for youths

Physics is not a nursery rhyme book it's us very early for you to change your course now
