Gaining admission into any tertiary institution comes with much expectations from an undergraduate student and his/her sponsors. Expectations like graduating with a first class honours degree, coming out as the best graduating student of the Department/Faculty/Institution etc.

As the journey begins, the work begins to achieve the goal of being the best in the academic pursuit, but in some cases the student can start realizing that he/she isn't really up to the task of being a first class student after getting to a certain level with different challenges which can lead to the student settling for whatever comes his/her way.

So, at what level in the University did you realize that you won't be graduating with a first class degree?

Codingenthusias:


Yeah but you'll have to work harder.

I got 2.67 as my 100lvl CGP. Ended up with 3.10 In my 200lvl and then in my 300lvl, I ended with 3.21. I'm in my final year right now, and my CGP is at 3.62. I just need to maintain my CGP and graduate with a 2:1.

So, you have a good chance of making a 2:1 than me sef

Creeknigga:
Mine is a different case entirely.
When seeking to admission, never thought of making a first class since I was going for Mech. Engr.
But when I was given Forestry through supplementary I knew first class could be possible
So, I'm working towards it.

Do you know about Elective courses?
Did you attempt it in year 3?

Codingenthusias:


I did 2 elective courses (1 in 1st semester and 1 in 2nd semester).

Then, I did 1 elective in 400lvl 1st semester.

dahgifted:
I heard it boost cgpa if one get an A or B?
Is it worth trying?

Codingenthusias:


Definitely Worth it!. It's like writing an extra course.

There's no difference between an elective course and a core course, as it gives you the same perks.

But be careful though, as doing an elective course might take a toll on your brain especially when you have enough course to deal with already.

I did 11 courses (2 elective) in my 400lvl 1st semester and was able to still end up with 4.46 as my CGPA

dahgifted:
I'm to write 7 courses this semester, all 3 credits can i still add 2 elective or is elective course limited to just 1 per semester?

Codingenthusias:


Elective courses are not limited.

In my school, you're to take an elective course worth 8 credit unit before graduation.

So, if it's 2 credit units, that's like 4 elective courses.

How many elective courses have you taken so far? I believe it should be the same in other federal universities.

After you're done with your elective, you're still allowed to take on other electives if you're in good standing (say 3.0 upward) else, the level adviser will decline your course form you registered online

Wrote igbo language in my GS courses when I'm not igbo, that was a bold F

2nd Semester, forgot books and focused on babes and hustle ,well the result isn't out yet but ...........

dahgifted:
I'm currently in my 2nd year and just commenced 2nd semester...
I'm studying in a state university and to my findings one can take an elective course starting from 3rd year.

Codingenthusias:


We started our elective courses in 2nd semester 200lvl here sha.

When registering for elective courses, you should also try to make an enquiry from your seniors if the course material is bulky or the lecturer taking the course is friendly or not, so as to avoid such courses.

Every semester, we had like 3 elective courses to choose from, so we had our own choices to make.

Be serious with elective courses the way you're with core courses as I've mentioned before, there's really no difference.

Thanks for the tips!

Where’s the lie ? From day one I knew first class wasn’t my calling.

lajid:
I just graduated, I really do hope I graduate with a first class.

I have maintained a first class from level 1 to level 4. Although I dropped out in second semester level 3, first time I was out of the first class zone (had 4.24 I think, devastating for me).

I entered my level 4 with a 4.59 CGPA, our final results are yet to be out but I was afraid because one course really gave me tough time, the lecturer didn’t help matters too.

It’s a 3 unit course and I think I might have a D (God forbid sha) but I’ve made peace with myself in case anything happens.

Although I’m hoping for the best. But I won’t lie, the thoughts of not getting a first class after the efforts is crazy. I even Had a 5.00 GPA in my level 1 second semester.

I just hope I graduate with a first class despite the trials. Our results will be out hopefully within the next two weeks so fingers crossed.

lajid:

So about this, I did finally graduate with a first class. Thanks to God, our result just came out.

Just for the records, the main aim isn’t the result, it’s to find Favour from God.

MrJavaS:


My case is similar to yours. I started 100 level with 4.14 at first semester and 4.79 in the second semester which brought me to 4.45CGPA. I just finished 300 level 2nd semester but our results are not yet out. Though after 300 level first semester CGPA dropped to 4.53. After my IT I may enter 500 level with 4.59 or 4.61 CGPA if I get 4.86 or 5.0 respectively if our results are out.

I'm still not sure if I'll graduate with first class because 4.5 is a very weak first class with no security

lajid:


Yeah, with 4.5 you can fall out any time. Just give your best. Hopefully it works in your favor.
