This is an old school question; there's no age limit to studying anymore; besides nowadays education is a lifelong pursuit. Bera forget age nonsense. 1 Like |

[quote author=xtremeTall post=84856198]Hello!!,please kindly spare your 1 minutes and advise me because i think ive been following the wrong path for 5 years... I completed my secondary School Education in 2014 and since then I've been Applying for the Nigeria Armed forces recruitments,i had wrote their Aptitude Test Exams like 8 to 9 times before i eventually passed the Airforce Exams for 2017. i went for their Physical screening in Kaduna,we undergo staunch health Screening."Thier medical facilities there are Top notch o"..anyway,i was disqualified for ill health reason,(i have a short sightedness),with tears in my eye i inform my Dad who had been very supportive the news. To cut my story short,i had been doing some work i don't really like since i gave up Career in the Nigeria Armed force.I am determined to go back to the university and study Law,,i know my parents would be glad to know i had came up with this idea but I'm thinking at 23?..IS IT POSSIBLE..i need your advise pls Mods pls help what do you mean? Your advice irritate me honestly. At 50 yrs some are still determine to go to University and you kid of 23 yrs indomine generation seeking for an advice. Pls you are too old the best advice for you is to go and learn vulcanizer. Iranu |

Thought I should contribute. I'm 25 in 200l studying physiology. Wrote jamb again and was given medicine. So next year I'll be 26 going for medicine and starting 100l all over again. It's my dream. What matters most is that I achieve it, not the time 10 Likes |

well its never too late... after graduating from leadcity in 2008 (2.2) my elder sister went back to school in 2014 at 31 to study law at university of liverpool even with 2 sons and at age 31 she graduated with 2.1 and she's now having her masters focusing on corporate law and corporate gorvenance .. according to her, she thinks maturity helps you when getting an higher education as you are more focused and know what you want out of the education .. 6 Likes |

I gained admission at 23, studied geology at a university of technology ( 5 years), served l, got a job instantly and I have been working since 2011. Infact I have switched career completely, getting a second degree in Marketing and communications. Please go for this degree, it would eventually be useful and it puts you in a position to achieve a lot more later in life. Education is the best legacy they say. Good luck 5 Likes |

xtremeTall:. Very, very stupid question. This can win an award for the most stupid question of the year if you post it in a forum filled with intelligent people. Napoleon Hill once said some people grow old at 23 while get old at 80. YOU ARE AS OLD AS YOU THINK. Your problem is not age, it is ignorance. 2 Likes |

Re: Can I Still Go Back To School At 23? by ComradeShegs(m): 8:42am On Dec 16, 2019 |
Don't give up bro. I'm a living testimony. Wrote Jamb 5 times, I kept applying nasarawa State University, keffi and continued to be denied admission obviously because I wasn't an indigene even though my credentials were complete.Honesty if you ask, I still have no clue why I kept applying there. I never scored less than 220 in my jamb. Until I was advised by my elder sis to apply Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria in 2015. Today I'm a graduate of Political Science and International Studies. Moral lesson: IT'S NOT HOW FAR, BUT HOW WELL. 3 Likes |

I was supposed to have graduated from Usmanu Danfodiyo University in 2011, but couldn't because transfer took me out of state. I had to call it quit at 300l. I started National Open University this year, and I am 37 years old. My plan is to use anger and graduate as the overall best when the time comes, God helping me. So, it's not late at all. Just go back to school and you'll be glad you did. 1 Like |
