I take my classes online now, so will the exam also.

Before the lockdown, I have three appearance in school in a week, where I take four courses, three of them for purely Data Analytics with two meetings a week and the last one is a preparatory class for dissertation.

Every class is equipped with:

Projector and for a larger class, there will be a huge display in the middle so those at the back can see.

A charging box that houses about thirty laptops just incase you dont come with yours. This laptop can be accessed with your student ID; student number and password of your choosing. In the laptop, your student ID will unlock an Operating system which is hosted by a huge server. In this operating system, you have a windows arrangement, just as you can adjust and save things on your laptop, this also does that once you login.
We also have a student email service and a learning app called moodle where you can submit your assignment, see the notes your lecturer drops, and other resources.

Wifi connection your phone and laptop connect to instantly immediately you're in school. From your student
App, you can submit a file to be printed in any printer in the school environment, these printer are connected to your app.
When you get to the printer, you simply flash your Stidejt ID card which instantly brings out your account and the files you've sent over, a single tap, it is printed and deducted from your account.
Yes, your student card also hold currencies.

Lecturers computer, the projector and displays are connected to the lecturers computer which every class has. From this, the lecturer is able to access their account, change slides, connect their tablet so they can write directly into the display for all to see.

Heater and airflow system

Speaker system...

White board marker for the old school,

Card reader mounted at the door entrance so tap in when you enter the class. The information about your attendance is displayed for you and your lecturer to see in your ELearning app.

Awon feminist will be very happy to see this, one of my core IT courses is taken by a female Indian lecturer, shes doing well.

Wow you just blew my mind with the entire narrative. Your school is really great.

On a normal day (without COVID-19 grin) How's your schedule? Like do you have many classes or longer classes, doing other school stuffs and then closing late?
I heard it's not tough over there like other countries though.

You're right, a normal week involves me going to school only on monday, Thursday and friday.
I get about three classes a week, with two lectures per appearance.
On friday, I get two usual core courses and writing for graduate studies, to prepare us for our dissertation.
Cheers.

I promised to show you all what the quay looks like.
Its pronounced key, lol, I learnt that my first day in Ireland.
I booked Abigail's and it was located at Aston Quay.
The hostel is facing the quay actually.
I didn't pronounce quay as key but followed my English teacher rule of Thumb, Pronounce as you spell.
I must say that me and the driver had a wonderful tug of words. Until he got fed up. I simply reached for my Loyal Hand luggage and fetched the printed bus pass.
That bag has served me right from when I was in university, it followed me to the North and accompanied me in all my trips to lagos. I rocked it during my brief stay in ilorin and all.
I kinda bond with items and have lots of memorabilia.
Each with a precious memory. That's why I dont travel light easily.
It's a vintage leather travelling bag my mum used and gave me, if you want a picture, theres one I dropped when I was in Doha.
In the Quay, you can see lots of birds, that's another one too. You can spot the Luas tracks, that's the name of Dublin's tram.
The birds in Ireland are really huge, they can torture a chicken we have in Nigeria, they're even bigger than chickens and smarter. I'll write about them later.

Awwnnnn, thanks man

Let me kill several birds with this stone below. This is for all.

The minimum requirement to enter into DBS Data Analytics is a second class lower, you'll need to package your application and work experience is going to be a huge boost.
Cheers man, I've been there, I had a 2'2 and was supposed to study in Canada, they said i had to do a TWO YEARS POST GRADUATE DIPLOMA before i do my two years masters.
I think my school can give you a 6month to one yr premasters or diploma, then you can jump in and to study your one year masters if you dont have work experience.
Then you can swiftly join the labour market and start to make impact.
