Re: Benue State University Closed As Students Protest New CGPA Grading by Premiumwriter: 11:38pm On Sep 02, 2019 |
israelmao:it's not about that. Most people recognize the 5 point grading which is easier compared to 4 point. But during scholarship application the same students will still be at a disadvantage. I once saw a student with 3.81, first class under the 4 point enclosing 4 point grade system within his application so he wouldn't be misunderstood. The problem is not with the grading system. It lies in what people are familiar with. And not to talk about been harder to pass. In 5 point if you have 40, you get your D but in 4 point if you get the same 40 you get a carry over. You need 45 to get a pass So tell me why shouldn't they protest when they have to work harder and still be at a disadvantage? 2 Likes |

Meritocracy: They are not educated illiterate. Better cool your mind and understand the implication of 4. point scale. 3.5 is upper in 5. scale. But 2.5 is lower in 4. scale. 1 Like |

Re: Benue State University Closed As Students Protest New CGPA Grading by Premiumwriter: 7:13am On Sep 03, 2019 |
Banee:very dry Of all your 'great ife' brain you can't even comprehend the implications of a 4 point grading system and typing trash up and down. A 5 point is like an inflation compared to the 4 point. In fact, those students work '5 marks' for each course harder than you do to get the same results. So what's so great about ife? |

Premiumwriter:big lie. In CV and cover letter, u write ur grade; first class, 2nd class upper etc. To further ur education, ur university sends ur transcript to the school u applied for. And they will see the grading system used |

Imagine! Later all these olodos will be claiming one super B.Sc. During my days in the Polytechnic, we used 4.00 grading system and before you can earn the 4points, you must score 80. Anything below 2.50 is pass. Which is as good as nothing. You cannot be awarded a certificate if you don't make 2.0 |

Fariq:please can you explain to me how it not. Because in 4gdp A is 4 point and in 5gdp A is 5 point |
Re: Benue State University Closed As Students Protest New CGPA Grading by Fariq: 1:32pm On Sep 03, 2019 |
chigbo25: Ok let me tell you where the issue is. It's not the matter of grading but rather the issue of class of degree. 4.50 to 5.00 is first class in five scale while 3.50 to 4.00 is first class in four scale (no issue in first class) 3.50 to 4.49 is second upper in five scale while 3.00 to 3.49 is upper in four scale. (Rather than it to be 2.50 to 3.49) Similarly, 2.50 to 3.49 is second lower in five points while it's 2.00 to 2.99 in four points scale. Example you have we have same grade, yours in five points and mine in 4. Let's assume you have 3.99 (which is upper) and I have corresponding 2.99 in 4. Scale (it's lower in my case.) A difference of 0.5 1 Like |

I graduated from Kwara State University and a 4 point grade system is used there. If what is seen on the above cardboard is true, [s]then, the students are at an advantage. The picture shows the direct conversion from 5 point scale to a 4 point scale. If the cardboard inscription is what the school management wants to change the CGPA grading system to, it is more beneficial to the students. It's just simple mathematics. [/s] PS: The grading system in the picture is what KWASU used and still uses. On a closer scrutiny, students are more advantaged to attain the first class grade but less advantaged to attain the second class upper degree. All the equality meant for the second class upper has been leached down to the second class lower category. there is also a disadvantage on the third class category.
