2.2 is bad. 2.1 is the magic you need in Nigerian labour market, because at least you will attend test. In my organisation in 2011 they sacked all staffs and managers with 2.2. It affected even people that joined with experience and people that have worked over 10 years. The good side is you can go in to a trade or business and build it over time. It's better than working for salary. Initially it will be hard but after 30yrs in your business you will be better of than your mates with 2.1 who are about to be sacked from their places of work and probably will join you in the business world with no experience and a family to manage. 2 Likes 2 Shares |

McCoy662:. You were surprised? Were you closer to 2:1 than 2:2? That being said, bro, it doesn't really matter. Burn your bridges. Focus on what you wanna do. Don't give chances for a second option. I finished with a third class in school. Entirely my fault, I laboured hard, did voluntary work also at some point and even with little pay. While doing that, I kept perfecting being excellent at what I do and I prayed to God. I was lucky to get a link for a job in an oil and gas company and I went for my interview. I got the job, God answered my prayers. Do not be deterred by your grade, focus on what you wanna do, pray to God, I promise you it is going to end well. Naija is tough but you can be favoured.

McCoy662: Well, first, congratulations. It means you are graduating. Second, stop blaming your project supervisor. You can't head into life blaming others for your deeds. Your project supervisor didn't stop you from having a first class, did he? So for you to actually move forward, stop blaming others for your mistakes. Third, in Nigeria, if you have a third class you might actually end up being the CEO of a Fortune 500 Company. Your grade when you come out doesn't exactly determine your success or otherwise. First class doesn't guarantee you a job just as third class doesn't mean you have failed in life. Look back at your mistakes in school that prevented you from having a first class and endeavour not to repeat them. Those mistakes are the only things that can draw you back in life. I hope you know influential people. That's the fastest way to make it in Nigeria. |

So people are now judging who is successful based on certificate? Be you First class, 2:1 or 2:2 or even third class, it doesn't matter your grade. What pays is hard work. Ok, you come and I asked you ur grade and you say first class, I then ask are you hardworking? you say yes, I reply, I don't mean just about reading and passing, but energy and strength? There are three thing many employers need from job seekers : 1. Hardworking 2. Strength / energy 3. Punctuality When you have these three, you are in. I can't employ you and you come and be claiming first class and be a sisy. You can start a business or learn a trade. Most property owners are business men, and not those that work in an organisation waiting for monthly salary. 2 Likes |

carry it with pride, u can never say where it can carry you... Remember the richest does not translate to the most brightest academically... believe me, how u build yourself and how u work smart determine how far u can go in life not some shitty paper... even if ur expectations are met 2:1... u can still suffer without the right mind set... again carry it with pride... 1 Like |

McCoy662: Your supervisor did not do anything bad to you, because you caused it yourself. You had 7 or 9 semester to boost your GP and only the 8th or 10th semester is for your supervisor. So, if you had been serious from onset, your last semester shouldn't determine your final GP... mind you you can serve that burnt dodo to your parents but not to us here. 1 Like 1 Share |

All banks are açcepting 2:2, prepare your mind. It's not the end of everything. But don't attach your 2:2 to your project supervisor, you have up to 200unit course unit before graduation so how come your 3unit project causes your failure? 1 Like |

post=86360447: My friend , it has never happened that a less qualified person graduated with a first class in a Nigerian institution. We reek of corruption, but you just can't buy a first class in Nigeria. Get your facts right. In fact those that will manage to graduate with first class must have more than paid for it in sweat equity. |

Hmm.. Do you have a relationship with God? Your class of degree does not determine your class of success. God is the giver of all good things. I finished with same and God told me I will have jobs that First class candidates can't get. First to be employed in my set even before going NYSC. Think and plan beyond your class of degree. 1 Like |
