Juliearth:True. About the result moderation, I can relate. It's true in some federal universities. Getting a first class isn't easy, but it's not impossible either. Anytime I see people bash first class graduates of private unis, I'm usually laughing at their ignorance. 1 Like 2 Shares |

taiwoawoniyi: My brother, I fought that demon endlessly in the course of my undergraduate program and still ended up with a 2:1. It hurts because I knew I deserved more, but courtesy of moderation and backdoor politics, I ended up with that. I am on another academic pilgrimage and I honestly hope to fight it heads on. |

Yes, she is good, her name is Stella Owala not Owaha quote author=taiwoawoniyi post=84345358]I like your story. I'm not a career consultant but I know one, Stella Owaha on Facebook. She knows her onions. You might think this is a scam but I'd advice you to just search for her on Facebook. She's a travel/career consultant. She should be able to help you. [/quote] |

The truth is that you might even be more knowledgeable than some of your mates with first class. Please don't let the result of your first degree affect your self esteem. Go on with your PhD and make sure your works are well published on reputable journals. You'll definitely get a lecturing job. I know that uninformed people might want to look down on you because of your 3rd class degree, but don't let that bother you. You'll always meet people like myself who understand that examination is not a true test of knowledge. Such people will appreciate what you have to offer currently without recourse to your first degree. |

Smartwave:my mum is responding to your comments. Shes an associate professor in a nigerian university. Do you know the implication of Pgd. It means balancing up where you were weak at during the first degree. 2 Likes |
Re: I Made A Third Class Now I Have An Msc About To Apply For My Phd by fapcrook(m): 10:55am On Nov 26, 2019 |
Op please dont be discouraged. Pgd means you have covered up those areas you were weak at that made you got 3rd class. I wouldnt want to mention few lecturers at OAU and other public universities with 3rd class. They are senior lectirers and professors now. Make sure you do good research worl and publish them both in reputable national and international journals. You'll surely get a job God's grace 1 Like |

Smartwave:Oga, I don't know where you got this ideology from. So stop saying what you do NOT know. There are over 170 universities in Nigeria (i.e. 48 federal universities, 43 state universities and 79 private universities). Do you want to tell me this your strange rule applies in all of them? I know 4 people who had a 3rd class. They did their PGD and Masters', then later completed their Ph.d. One of them did his own Ph.d abroad. As I am talking to you, they are fully employed by different universities in Nigeria. One of them is even in a state-owned university. So stop peddling theories you know nothing about, by claiming "First Class are always retained by their universities." That is a massive lie, that does not happen anywhere, anymore. Maybe in the '80s and '90s, they did so. But not anywhere, these days. So stop those false claims that all 1st class are retained by their universities. That one is a big lie. I have 2 cousins with 1st class from their Nigerian universities. They could NOT get a job within their schools, despite their 1st class. One of them was lucky to be assisted by his Dean, to get a scholarship abroad for his PG studies. The other one is still at home, writing application letters. Not everyone applies for an academic position, with just a Master's degree. There are many that apply for such posts, with a doctorate degree. So you think after getting the Ph.d, that university will still send them back to do a conversion course, again? What fallacy is this?? Private universities only recommend that people should do an extra year, if external students approach them to say they want to take this route. They do NOT force anyone to do so, especially if he/she has a Masters degree or a Ph.d already. In fact, your post is riddled with illogical statements. I don't want to engage you further, since you lack clarity on this subject. 1 Like |

Mires:I agree that there are Ph.d holders searching for jobs. I even know one, personally that is job hunting at the moment. But some of those Ph.d holders searching for jobs, do not want to lecture in a university. They want to work in multinationals or local conglomerates. Ask them how many universities they applied to, at home and abroad for teaching jobs, and see what kind of answers they give you. 1 Like |

Juliearth:That's crazy. It's sad when your potential is being canned because of insecurity of our institutions. Crazy. That's why private universities have my confidence any time. One day, in school, the department legit changed our grades. The result had been posted in the faculty (law) but when we checked our portals, it had been downgraded seriously. Musa has seen it all at the gate. |
