Greetings Fellow Nairalanders,
I seriously need tips/advice.
I'm currently in my 200L 1st Semester. Pls I had 2.85Gpa in my 1st semester result in 100L, our 2nd semester result is not yet out.
My problem is that, this 2.85, in a 5point scale, is too small to compare with other of my Coursemates or to even give me a 1st Class or 2nd class upper from the look of things.
Here in my 200L, am offering 6 tough courses and all has 3 Credit unit each.
Pls tell me, have I failed or missed my target?
Can I still make 2nd class upper? If yes, what do I need to do (I know that, I need to read and read, but there are some helpful tips).
Pls somebody help me on how to boost this Gpa to something more better.

Note: I have recently realized that, 1st class is not for me, because I do work while I school. So it's not really easy,but I have to.

Pls what exactly, do I need to do, to boost this Barca looking odd.
Guys who passed through this lane and those who are on same lane with me, pls advice.

You need to start reading very early in the semester

Always write ur assignments and practical as if it is an exam

-Have a positive mindset
Always believe that you can achieve a better GP.

-Study past questions

-Move closer to the brilliant and serious students

-And the most importantly know God and pray always
