Don't Relent Academically, My Short Experience. by Nobody: 1:57pm On Jul 31, 2021
So I created a topic early last year concerning my schooling.
As at then I was in 200 level and my 100 level results were just released, I failed whole fully with total of 5 carry-overs in the whole of year 1 alone amounting to less than 2.0 GP.
I resumed 100 level very late (A week to exams) and that contributed to the whole thing, I felt really devastated honestly so I had to bring it up on this forum. People here motivated me, some where of the option that I defer the admission and some came with insults and how I should drop out and do yahoo lol.
Friends around me who had same problem resulted to start sorting lecturers and all that but I was not in for that nonsense. Now the issue was that I read hard but I don't understand why my results were not to my expectations.
Many people here adviced that if I must graduate with my mates and a good result I needed to read extra, I took heed to that and during the lockdown I had already start planning my strategy to overcome upon resumption. I changed environment and moved with a friend of mine, an engineering student.
When school resumed this year ( 200 level second semester) I started reading hard like exams was tomorrow. Since 100 level, I have not really been social, I hardly go out and try to keep a very small circle. This my roommate has been very cool, he has really thought me a lot and also helped me academically.
At a point I started falling sick unnecessarily but I did not relent in my academics.
When the result for our 200 level second semester came out I was joyous, the first semester (200) was average because of reference I had to rewrite and second semester gave me 4.88GP with only one reference I wrote, I was in doubt and had to go to my department to get the statement of my results and it was confirmed. Now I'm hoping the industrial training I'm about to embark on goes well too because I have to make sure to aquire the practical knowledge of my discipline.
I acknowledge that I myself have to keep up with this effort at this moment but I really want to motivate students like me not to feel down in any kind of academic setback, rather seize it as an opportunity to work on yourself and improve.
Although I understand what works for me might not work for you so find what works for you and apply it.
Nobody is a failure.
School especially Higher institution is hard but aluta continua, victoria acerta.

Bro I'm motivated


I'm currently in your shoe though i still have like two courses result yet to be released but the ones i have had so far leave bad taste in my mouth. going by my own estimate, I'm in the region between 3.5-3.6 CGPA...I'm feeling down and been brooding for days, the funniest part is that I always contributes to class discussions but lately i have put a stop to it.

I did quite well in my 100'level both semester. Can I still forged ahead... Is first class still feasible?

Please i need help and want to re-strtategised!

I belive that every student has it in him/her to make it, The school system is not hard, difficult you might say but definitely not hard...
Just be ahead of your lecturers on every topic and course andsee wonders.

You're hardworking bro.
Just make sure to read ahead and attend classes, participate in class activities and sometimes try to identify with lecturers if you experience difficulty in their courses, some of them loves that.
As for the First class, make sure to calculate your GP properly and if improvement is needed work on it.
Kudos!

how come you have less than 2.0 as gpa and you are not withdraw from your department? I think anything below 2.0 will prompt the school to transfer you to a lesser department, while below 1.5 means you will be withdrawn from the university (expel). Someone should,please shed more light on this. Congrats bro

I actually inquired about this but my school system is different.
This is a federal school though, so if a student gets less than 1.0, the student is withdrawn and less than 1.5 is probation.
