but I'm rich for my age and growing rich every day, just yesterday how much I made from sales of eggs alone? Sales of animal feeds produced locally? Not to talk if my consultancy services? We talking about success here on Earth! As long as you're still poor and unproductive a stack illiterate roadside orange seller is better than you. by law both are equal but I don't give a damn, by practical I'm superior with my HND, hnd made me what I am today and what I'm growing to become in the nearest future cus I started flexing Agric money from the early days as ND2 I.T student, you're a poor jobless old boy still getting fed by your poor harlot mother browsing with ur stupid techno. Tell that to government that already equated it. Again stop depending on your prostitute mother to feed you and ur uselss bsc paper, you should be ashamed at your age you mother still feeds you from her prostitution. Like I said visit me at the aforementioned locations, you need a job even though a job will never make you rich but only render you a slave for life. But it's unfortunate for you that you've not even gotten to that level where you have to slave for people in the name of a job,, you harlot mom still feeds you. Think of your life, have some shame and dignity. Get out of your mother's house come to me in Delta, I will teach you first then employ you. I will not only get bsc, Msc but my professorship in my so much cherished career. You know why I started doing Bsc Animal Science through D.E? Because I need to do my real calling which is Zoology and Animal Taxonomy. That's when I will be truly fulfilled and not because I'm not proud of my HND and next year I'm rounding up my bsc weekend programme to enable me do Masters and PhD in Zoology and Animal Taxonomy, I can't do them with HND Agriculture, I can only achieve that with a degree in pure Animal Science by God's grace I'm getting done next year June and proceeding for my masters abroad. You can enjoy your useless certificate Mr first fiddle feeding from his harlot mom. Stay cool bro
It was hard reading through this endless lamentation and I had to stop halfway, learn how to apply paragraph and punctuations to your write up next time.

Its funny how you think what you are doing has made you successful that you go around measuring dick with random people on a faceless forum. You have no ideacheesy...

Enjoy you AgricBusiness Bro grin

Bsc jobless boy I get your time. I agree your bsc is bigger but come let me employ you in my fisheries department. I know bsc people don't like stress so it won't stress you, you will just monitor and record bags of feed my fishes are consuming daily, These non graduates here are showing me pepper even though I can't do without them because of cheap labour, but I need a lazy bsc graduate like you to man those feed stores and egg stores so that when I travel I know my farm is being monitored by a schooled person, a bsc graduate for that matter, will be glad to have you here so don't be ashamed pls come, I won't even know it's you. I just need a graduate here seriously, I won't intimidate you, I just enjoy this bsc hnd online war when ever I come across it online that's all. No hard feelings, if you're in Delta within warri axis PM, there's accommodation for you, you need to leave your parents house Mr bsc

It depends on you, let me tell you something some people will ask you why do you need to run a Bsc programme again when you have an HND? they will question your self esteem
I'm also in your shoes.. but this is what I have come to realise so far
1) HND or BSc.. there is no job out there
2) HND or BSc the organization doesn't care, in as much as you know your job
3)YES! HND in statistics qualifies you for direct entry into Accounting
But!
There are some opportunities you will not get if you don't have a degree
There are some chances you will not get to prove yourself if you dont have a degree
There are some interviews you will not get if you don't have a degree

The bottom line is that being successful in your career path is not dependent on whether you have an HND or BSc.

As an HND holder, I will say I've never been out of job since I graduated 2years ago, but the truth is there are better opportunities I have missed out on due to the fact that I don't have a degree, I'm currently trying to run a conversion programme in a course related to my field.

@23 you are still very young, please opt for direct entry if you are from @least a average family who are willing to support you for the next 2-3years again, if not you can try conversion programme, this will give you the opportunity to work and continue schooling at the same time.

But please in whatever decision you take, go and learn IT, I sincerely believe you will do very well in coding or data analysis.

If you don't mind we can be friends

Am also interested in this friendship thing abeg.
My case is related to this also.
And I would like to go into coding.

As a bsc holder in accounting, I would advice you to go for ICAN while on it, you can go for pgd and then to masters.....hnd and ICAN will be chosen over bsc accounting [b]anytime any da[/b]y

This is not correct.

At the Ops age he is aptly suited for several Graduate trainee roles. But not ALL these roles accept Hands.

KPMG , PWC or Access bank for instance do not.
Coronation Merchant bank, and some top investment banks so no too.

This is not to say that some others do not.
Gtbank accepts Hnd I think. But to say anyday, anytime would be setting the Op for disappointment.

I swear I'm very proud of my HND because what would I have been today without it? I know how much I'm making just for being an HND Agriculturist. All my bsc guys I'm the one they consult for all their livestock services even though they have friends with Bsc agric like them. I have no hard feelings or pains here, I'm only stressing on the fact that I am successful today because of the Agricultural skills I have acquired in OND n HND and will never let anyone run me down when I know my net worth acquired through the Poly system of Agric education. Throughout my study in school I did 2 industrial training which University could not have offered me. I was well branded in Agro skills before I graduated I made money, I felt those industrial Trainings were not enough for me so I paid 120k to learn other skills at Sunghai Delta, you must have heard of it. where I learned treatment of pigs, bovids and birds the Poly industrial training didn't offer me. As at last 2 years for me to inject 1 pig is 6k but now is 9k last for normal level farmers and those extremely rich men even pay as much as 15k per 1 pig or bovid injection, imagine injecting a farm of 300+ pigs how much it costs? I get called almost every day, I even have another farm to attend to tomorrow morning. These are facts about what diploma in Agric is doing for me. So I need pure Animal Science degree of uni to further my studies that is why I'm already doing Bsc Animal Science through D.E and rounding up next year June so that I can go for Masters in Zoology and Animal Taxonomy here in my Naija, cus every farmer must avoid reckless spending plus I hate white men countries due to racism. I'm very proud and happy for what poly exposed me to but poly is not good for social science courses, just Agric n Engineering fields. Get a skill and be successful, respect all persons.

You are still young

For Nigeria education
Go for direct entry with your HNd... you maybe lucky to start with 300level

For Outside education
Apply for a fresh degree in Mathematics or computer science in Canada or Australia...

Goodluck
300L for University not possible at least 200 Level

Why?
pls they can abuse or berate hnd but they should exclude HND Agriculture in doing so. All my achievements is because of 2 times industrial training polytechnic offered me in study of Agriculture. I can never be broke again, I've been enjoying Agric money since ND2. If I'm not selling crates of eggs daily (IMPOSSIBLE) I'm always getting called to go inject birds, non ruminants and ruminants in other farms or I'm selling my locally produced feeds, how could I have achieved all these wealth creating knowledge if not for OND/HND Agriculture? I'm telling you that till now people studying Agriculture in uni do not know anything about Day old chicks, Brooder house preparation, Fish Spawning, Animal Ration formulations etc but these things are what a polytechnic ND 2 students is already used to after 4 months n 1 year industrial training. We always encounter bsc final year students back then in farms we were working and as ND2 students then we were the ones teaching them. So how can I respect such people? When at HND Agriculture level I'm already into breeding/cross breeding programmes and livestock health which will forever give me money, bsc Agric graduates I know are not doing well, the few rich ones their parents open farms for can't run it. It falls because what you don't know is what you don't know, Lol. I swear I'm just laughing. Though by next year my bsc Animal Science degree will be ready so I can proceed for Masters in Zoology and Animal Taxonomy, I will always appreciate Polytechnic Agriculture for earlier exposure to money making Agro skills. I am not angry but I have to correct some impression.

Go for HND conversion & then your masters
This is the best option for a working class person but if you are ready for another 3/4 years of campus experience with people to support u, then go for D.E or start Bsc afresh. But just to be clear, Conversion program is now much better than Pgd

If you're thinking of the UK, it takes one year to convert your HND to BSc by doing a top up degree. In Nigeria its around 3 years. If you want to progress, do a BSc. I have an acquaintance who gained HND, PGDIP, MSC, PhD, he's lecturing in a poly but cant be employed as university lecturer. Now, he's doing a BSc without which, even with a PhD, he can't be a university lecturer. He simply ignored my counsel years ago, and now he's the wiser. A word is enough for the wise.

Coming out gun blazing with insults and vitiriols is rather low and belittles a person and his achievements.

I found it appalling seeing your constant mention of his mother and prostitution.

That's in a bad taste.

And can never appeal to hearts.


Points can be made and understood with civility.

Most times saying to someone ' I feel your pain' is a way of identifying with that person's experience, so harmless.

Are you truly an atheist?
