WhyAWhy:

the present record of all-time highest CGPA is from Tope Ajetunmobi, He finished with 4.96 (Chem Engr, 2007). He went to Imperial College London for his masters

jarus you tend to name call too much- dont know if you just like being clique-ish or you're simply not comfortable outside your comfort zone.

i think i've posted on at least two threads dedicated to this topic- might be better if things are streamlined on one thread instead of multiple topics everywhere although ogf course its a free world.

ife has plenty of alumni besides the ones you listed- dont think there's a need for all this exclusivity since oau is not a country club with selective membership.

no offence, but that's my opinion and you're free to attack me for this later if you're so inclined.

i didnt know Tope was eventually able to beat Deji. Tope was my mate(entered 2001) but, ours being a 4-year course, we finished a year ahead of him.

Tope used to stay in Awo Block 7, ground floor when I was staying in middle floor. I used to hear about him from Tech guys. He was said to be Deji's friend and mate at Suleja Academy(1999 set) and we learnt he was the best student in their set and Deji was 4th(and the other 2 guys in-between them also came to Ife, but travelled abroad before the end of year 1). But JAMB shocked Tope once and he found himself in Yabatech(where he also shattered record with highest ND CGPA ever at the end of his ND programme). on second attempt at JAMB, he got admission into Ife, now a year junior to Deji.

We used to hear then that whatever Deji scored in any case, Tope, who will be writing the course, will set a target for himself to score higher when he wrote the course the next session. Deji broke school record in 2006, and that was when I left, never knew Tope was able to surpass him the following.

omho, Ife na bad school o. if you think you sabi book, u go meet people wey turn you ordinary. my childhood friend(same primary and secondary schools) who was best wassce student in Kwara state in 2000 had the misfortune of being in same class with Deji in Ife. my friend tried all he could to beat Deji, but iwe pass iwe. my friend, a genius in his own right now with Phd from Arkansas and works for Shell US, was only able to settlke for second behind Deji, with gap as wide as 0.2.

loma on this thread is another of those guys. dem sabi for Ife.

Jarus:

so, if an entirely different topic drifts to an issue and warrants same examples/cases, it has become a crime to re-narrate the cases/examples/stories?

tjmadrid:
Greatest gbo gbo, Greatest Ife, of the greatest, greatest, greatest Ife. OAU will always be an unforgetable moment in my life because you tend to gain everything in Ife if you did not allow the university to pass through you. Moz 101, Awo block 4 rm121, Awo Block 3 Rm33, Awo Block 2 Rm 23 and Awo Annex Rm321( Math Room). :-XI really miss OAU and am using this medium to wish OAU Happy 50th Anniversary
