Cryomancer: Pls I also need your advice. I was aspiring to study law few years ago before financial problems and result glitches encumbered my chances of going to the university. You talked about switching courses, what other courses would you advise someone within the sphere of Arts/social science to study? I'm currently interested in Economics/Criminology/Political Science. |

Self development...learn a skill or trade, don't waste your time. |

I admire smart people a lot and you seem like one. I have gone down that exact route you want to go and I have a lot of experience. I also own Copywriting Agency. Send me a message and if you meet my expectations, I may decide to mentor you for free. |

I'd advise you to follow the advice of your mom, sit for jamb and pursue the admission into a university. Certificate is never useless and never a waste of resources (time, financial, material, energy). You need the certificate not to secure a job but not to regret not going when you had the opportunity. 2 Likes |

Elistho:First off, your writing needs work. I don't know who told you have the "talent". Nonetheless, you can always hone the skill and get very good at it -- anyone can. Now, to the main matter. Your story reminds me a lot of myself. I also had a lot of passion for the course I chose to study. But, you see, passion did not sustain me in the long run. Passion is good, but it won't sustain you in the long run. If you rush into school now without being financially fit enough to go all the way to the end, you will get frustrated. The biggest mistake you'll make is rely on your parents or anyone to keep sending you money. The money they will send you occasionally will hardly be enough to cater for yourself in school. They will not understand when you keep billing them. They most likely won't be able to fund all your expenses fully. This will have a very negative effect on your academic performance. Because you're passionate about that course, you will be frustrated knowing that you ought to be doing well, but you're not, due to financial constraints. You will eventually get broken and not give a fvck again. Here's my advice: If you're really passionate about this course, make sure that you, at first, have enough "resources" that will sustain you through to the end. So, for now, focus on grinding. These days, you don't need a school degree to make good money. Find something that can pay you the most within a not-too-long time possible. Do a good estimate of how much in total you'll be needing to run the school degree all the way to the end (go to the school and get info from those studying it). Once you have a good estimate of how much you need, good, continue grinding and accumulating funds. In no time, you should have enough. However, wait, before rushing to start the course, make sure you also have enough extra cash that you can fall back on after graduation should you not be able to grind during the years you're running the degree (some courses are very demanding and require one's total commitment if one is to excel in studying them. Law might be one of them). I'll advice the extra cash should be at least half the amount you're going to use to run the school degree. Note: when you're making the estimate, you're calculating everything from school fees, to feeding, to accomodation, to self maintenance, etc., taking inflation into consideration. Good luck. 2 Likes |

Elistho:.. My advise: 1. Spend the remaining of this year building and developing your writing skill. 2. Network as much as possible. 3. Live your life on a low key, any money you have, think of saving at most 20% of it. 4. If possible get a university degree, if law is what ticks you, then go study law. 5. Try to learn an IT skill, even if nah web design (HTML 5 & CSS3), IT is the present and the future. 6. If you believe in God, then please commit all your plans before God because nah God grace we need for this Nigeria. .. I am currently one year older than you(19), so see this as an advice from a big brother. 1 Like |

Just quote me with the definition of Copywriting (as per how you understand it) if you're interested. If I'm okay with your definition, I'll show you a link here on NL and send you an ebook (for Fiverr) that can help you get started. Copywrite in a layman and simple definition is the process of advertising whatever service's a company offers through write ups. I'm interested, thanks in anticipation. |

Kingcredo: Elistho: Hi, I asked the question because I understand that unwanted advice is never appreciated, and the last thing I wanted was to spend my time researching for information no one wants. But since you already asked, here you go: Read this thread to learn about email copywriting and getting started on Upwork: https://www.nairaland.com/5898215/how-build-enviable-income-email I attached an ebook for you. Download it to get started on Fiverr. I'll suggest you start with Fiverr since Upwork could be difficult. And the ebook is very useful and will help you rank and get your first job in as little as two weeks. Please let me know when you download the ebook since it's someone else's work and it's unethical to give it out for free. CC: Elistho 1 Like |

Igwe29: I was also in your shoes years ago and it wasn't east deciding too. Economics is a very nice course and it has lots of prospects too. But if you're not very good with calculation, please avoid it because it might end in tears. Criminology/political science is also fine but what are the prospect here in Nigeria.? I'll advise you check out international relations/diplomatic studies instead. Please don't just study any course just because you want to go to school. Nigeria is very hard now and the job market is becoming competitive, so I'll advise you study a course that can give you a good placement in the present day Nigeria. I finally studied Insurance when law wasn't forthcoming and I did not regret that decision till date. So I'll advise you some list of promising courses below which I feel an art student can comfortably study and come out with good grades too. *Insurance *Industrial relations/personnel management *Business administration *International relations and diplomacy *Estate management *Psychology Goodluck Bro... I hope this helps. |

AFvckingAlpha: Look.. forget this and go to school oo You can always self develop while schooling u won't regret it I'm sure. But b'cus others did not make it out well doesn't mean that u would not. So, just focus alright. |

[i][/i][b][/b] my prayer for everyone is that they are blessed and make it eventually in life despite the unfavourable circumstances surrounding us. Some people have self developed over and over but no joy. Some have gone to school and even bagged msc but still, no joy. So bro just go school jeje and come out well. Your course of study isn't a criteria in this era oo,else u would be frustrated for having a degree in engineering but still jobless |
