NairalandSARS:


15 years is the normal time to take WASSCE. .
305? Why didn't she score 370+ or 400? Chemistry, use of english, physics, biology all need you to memorize facts and formulas, nothing more. I am not impressed.

Wait guy, 15 years normal age? Is this a joke? Are you discounting this impressive academic achievement? Is this a joke or are you serious? Am I dreaming? Please respond to this here..

You also said cramming can achieve this. Really? Just really? Wow, you must be super intelligent and have this achievement beneath you for you to not be super impressed by the outstandingly excellent academic achievement of this young girl.

The way I see you, your WAEC must be 9A1, UME 379 and University GPA 4.98...

Kai, some of us that finish secondary school at 17/18/19 must have been abnormal, according to your very high standards. I hope to read from you here.

I rep the UNIVERSITY OF FIRST CHOICE AND NATION'S PRIDE.

Indeed greatest Akokites, great. Let's mouth a bit

lilmonarch:
Based on the pass rate analysis, the University of Ilorin emerged first

I rep Better By Far

I tell people that Ilorin is such a quality school. I didn't know this until recently when I started hearing about the school and actually meeting people who went there..I don't know if it is true on average, but their first class / best graduating people I have met seem to be smart. I respect them. One just even finished her PhD in mathematical finance and lecturers in Germany. Smart girl

Polythecnic graduates looking at this thread with envy.

Polythecnics dey teach law?
Polythecnics dey read Medicine?

If them born any Poly graduate for Nairaland, make that person say Polythecnics and Universities na equal again.

Olodo Poly graduates.

Common University una no fit go.

By the way, your post depicts ignorance of certain things so I will state them

1. In France, the polytechnics there are better rated than universities

2. The best students from high school go to poly, e.g ecole polytechnic. The rest go to university or below

3. Ecole poly graduates are more rigorous on average and command a higher pay in the job market, on average.

So, yes, in Nigeria and perhaps the British system, poly might be viewed as inferior on all fronts, but this does not necessarily hold outside of Nigeria. Rensallier poly is another one that trumps many US universities in quality and research. Let's educate ourselves before we criticize and castigate.

This post of yours is uncalled for. Why diminish those you perceive are not as fortunate as you are? You don't need to be insensitive..And I need to add that poly grads are not olodo. Many of us have stories of people more talented than us but ended up going to poly. I know a number

scopenatty7:
I concur...I currently have scholarships to study abroad as a first class student but no one to assist with little required funds. So, when there is brain there must be money to drill its potent

1. Is your scholarship full?

2. If yes, what do you need ''little required funds'' for?

3. Is it for flight ticket?

If you are ready to supply convincing answers to these 3 questions, then try to send me an email.


10% scholarship is a scholarship but things can be hard for those who don't have the huge 90%. If you fall into this category, it would be a good idea continue to try hard until you land a more generous scholarship..

Meanwhile, congrats to the dude in the original post...Not everybody can achieve that feat, whether there is money or not.

Jesus and you let this one win the race to earth among other sperm, You mentioned china have you forgetting their leader AKA God own country (America). If you work surely you will reap what you worked for but if you have a covenant with God through tithing where you and Mr A (idiot non tither like you) work at the same pace your result will be far better, (When given correctly) long story short he will double your result. I will not educate you again. But note Chinese work way harder than Americans but[b] they will never smell or experience America economical success[/b]. Take it or leave it you are an Idiot with a misplaced priority

I disagree with you here. You're making a quick statement that may not stand the test of time. The same statement was made 20 years ago but look at China today. The macro picture may not support your statement going into the future. But I agree that only God knows the economy that will dominate several decades from now.

By work harder, do you mean productivity...? Because it is productivity, coupled with some other factors, that eventually stimulate growth and economic prosperity. If you meant the Chinese are more productive, can you provide an empirical fact to back this up?

It's hard to make definite statements. There are many variables in place. I agree America was founded on the platform of Christ, praise God...But we all know the amount of stuff that gets exported from America to other countries today. God is not a respecter of persons. We all need to be reminded of this.. It is possible for America to wane economically. It has happened to other past world powers. It can happen to America. Relationship with God is about salvation, not about how economically prosperous a country would be, although I agree that God's children won't lack

DeutschJunge:
We need a new goalie, not before we start the world cup but before the next match which is a friendly.
No hating on the current one, but he is not just good enough to face really good opponents, we need some experience between those sticks.
If this team face countries with sharp strikers we will get beat well, the saving grace was that all the opponents we went against had sloppy strikers.


Just close your eyes and imagine that goalie against, Harry kean, sane, jesus, neymar, aguero, mbbape, lakazzete.. Omo heavy butt whopping..

Your view is not new.

Enyeama that later became our best keeper in recent times, the same was said about him in the early 2000's when he still a homebased Eyimba notice and had just started.

I will resurrect this post to remind you when the goalie starts shinning.

All the bestest.

firstly,you should be ashamed of yourself for been a fraudster.why are you pained why don't you go look for something better to do or did I spoil your business by exposing you this animal?don't get me angry if you don't want me to search and slap the hell out of your stupid father.stop deceiving people if you need a job in box me am self employed I do not any job or travelling things from a useless and clueless fellow like you.


Quote me again make thunder fire your generation.

Why are you bringing up this now?

Bro, how can you just begin to insult me, my father and my generation without even having an idea that you're talking to a fellow human being like you. Are things that bad? Please take it easy. Whatever you're working hard for will come. You don't have to suspect people for no reason. Some of us are motivated by a desire to help other people. I know this is hard to believe, but some people, some Nigerians still do this without expecting anything in return. I belong to that set of people and nothing will make me ashamed.

It's unfortunate you believe anything big is scam. It's not. Normally I should return fire for fire or invite at least 3 people here on Nairaland, old time nairalanders even before you joined who have benefitted from the blessings of God through me, but I won't do that. That would be stupid. I have nothing to prove to anybody, not even to you. I don't even know you. I gave sound responses to your allegation and invited you to counter my submissions, you couldn't do that. Instead, you decided to throw insults. That's not a hallmark of a witty Nigerian.

You also sound very arrogant. It does not pay. We have been there, done that and it burnt our fingers. If you're self-employed and things are working for you, praise God..But you don't have a near idea about some of the people that post on nairaland. Why insult? It does not pay. Self-control is key if you're to go far in life. You've not started yet. If you have not started, I challenge you to start helping fellow nairalanders in any ways you can, with your resources, expertise, and talents. You say you're self-employed, I challenge you to start hiring nairalanders as some of us are already doing. If we all can do this instead of engaging in unnecessary boasting, we will touch some people's lives positively.

I will pretend I didn't see the unnecessary outburst in your post. I wish you good luck.

Livebygrace:

I have B.Sc.Ed. Maths and M.Sc. Maths (in View), can I apply?

Hi, no you can't anymore. It's already late for that particular role. I won't lie, there is another role, specifically for females, but I've not been asked to bring anybody and you will understand that I can't field someone I don't know...So, I'm not making it open here.

But if your grades in your bsc/bed and msc math are very good, I can work with you to get a masters or phd abroad. I used to do this for free, but the success rate has prompted me to begin charging for the service..And the charges are a bit on the high side. However, if I like your academic achievements, anything can happen. If you're comfortable, you can send me your CV and transcripts..This is not for the job, it's for potential grad studies if you're interested.

Generally, females have higher chances of getting scholarships in STEM programmes, so if you're female and happen to have some nice academic achievements, you have a good chance.

In any case, send me your CV and transcripts but only if you are comfortable doing so.

Gerrard59:



Everyone wants it, unfortunately not everyone will get it. So to console themselves, they denigrate the achievement. Same way people accuse people who buy luxury products of vanity. Whereas this is something that requires hard work, determination and perseverance. I always respect anyone who has a First Class, whatever the school or discipline.

However, the lack of information on the side of most intellectuals to advance themselves career and education wise further adds to the denigration. For instance, I was told of a first class graduate of Mathematics from Unical opening a provision shop from his proceeds of a scholarship he won while in school . When others see such, they further denigrate the achievement. What Mr Tunde needs is information (quality one) and everything will be OK.

I'm even surprised that as someone from the south west, you're asking this question. I expected it from someone who finished from schools East of the Niger (dem Unical, Uniuyo, Uniport, AKSU, IMSU, RSUST etc). I have a friend who finished with a First Class from Unilag, same discipline as OP, and will soon write her GRE exams (targets above 320), same lass has applied to Accenture. However, there was another who finished still with a First from Uniport, but didn't know what GRE is all about until the Unilag lass elucidated everything about it. Information is powerful!

It's also important to note that not everyone will become an entrepreneur or employee. The way persons on social media seem to recommend entrepreneurship to every grad is worrisome. Operating a business goes beyond buying and selling (what most entrepreneurial advocates do), it requires capital, tenacity, idea etc. Some persons will love to have their enterprise, but after working for some years. Not graduating and starting something, just like that?? Everyone is not the same, unfortunately most Nigerians don't understand this fact! People should be given the support to pursue their dreams as long as they don't commit a crime.


cc: Tunemike.

Thanks, very well written response to my answer. Information indeed is power. I agree that our people from the south-west are at an advantage when it comes to having the right info...Those from far away East or north might find things a little more difficult. Hopefully, we are getting to the era of information convergence, where most people will have access to the same info.

First class is not easy. It's unfortunate some people diss what they haven't or can't achieve. I think it's done to salvage a wounded ego. What I tell people is that there are other ways to prove oneself if one didn't make undergrad first class. Our firm recently hired someone from nairaland here. This person isn't a first class, not even 2:1, but we have been impressed by the quality of work the person produces. I think people can build up themselves and become productive. It is something they ower themselves. One day, opportunity will come.

As for being an entrepreneur, surely the concept of equilibrium is not clear to many..Everybody can't be an entrepreneur, otherwise, the disequilibrium we have in the world will widen even further..In fact, I argue that the limit of everyone turning to an entrepreneur would accelerate the shrinkage in productivity. Advanced climes know this, that's why unemployment data and wage growth are some of the most watched metrics in those places.

I'm impressed by the quality of responses received so far.

Girl, this is the right time to start it and grow from there.

If you have a chance to join and compete in domestic and hopefully international Toastmasters competition, that would be great..This is one of the most challenging but yet easiest ways to build your brand and practice your craft. I too love public speaking but allowed to much time to go without further building myself or taking it to the next level. Don't do this. Start now.

Another way as someone said is to pick a mentor..This also gives you an easy access to the audience of your mentor. One day, your mentor can wake up and say you will be the one to speak. I attended this guy's event Andy Harrington who is Tony Robins' protege. Tony did this for him and he did it for one Singaporean girl like that.

Pursue this dream, don't let it slip. You will encounter challenges, some will say you're not talented but na lie. That somebody is not well practiced does not mean they are not talented. The same was said about Christiano at Man Uni in his early years. Look at him today....Football Icon.

Good luck girl. Carry go for it.

Prec1ous:
How will you have first class and still be looking for job.

The knowledge from the First Class is meant to be utilized and exploited.

So are you telling me now that you will work as a..
Sales manager or rep
Customer care agent
Office attendant.

You obviously did not deserve that class, LA cram LA pour.

Go and do graduate assistant!

Or now that you have the advantage, leave this country on scholarships. Check here...

https://www.nairaland.com/2845395/nairaland-official-scholarships-thread-degree/8#59389869

Guy, if not for self-control, what I would have told you enn...How can you open mouth to say that. And who told you he is condemned to doing the jobs you listed. If first class was that easy, why has it not become pure water proportionately speaking.

This guy will come back here to testify great things. Hope you will be here to reverse your views..That someone is reaching out to possibly more experienced people to get wisdom does not mean they are clueless..They just want to stand out. At my age and level, I still do this very well. Many people more successful and experienced do it..It is called simple consultation..Why won't a young, intelligent and ambitious boy do it..I tire.

I don't know why people are harsh to first class people? I have asked Jarus this question many times. Why do people lose cool and use anything to talk-down first class people. Sad

Good morning Nairaland.
My name is Olaleye Tunde. I am a graduate of Biochemistry from a reputable university in the south western part of Nigeria. I graduated with a cgpa of 4.60. I will be through with my NYSC in kano state by November even though I'm nursing a plan to stay back in kano and search for jobs since kano is less competitive in terms of job jostling and hustling.

I have a keen interest in the manufacturing, Health and hospitality, and Education sectors. I am resourceful, dogged, intelligent, adroit and inclined to learning new approaches towards getting things done meticulously. I hew easily to work ethics and I am able to work with team(s). I am willing to relocate to any part of the country. Please help a brother. I'm looking forward to getting replies. Thanks.

Hi,

Congrats on your achievement, nice academic achievement. Thank God we saw this, almost skipped it.

By now you should have seen our many spam messages, lol, searching for people who excelled at a high level at uni.

Don't base your decision on my post, but if you do decide to relocate to Lagos, please send an email and let's take it from there.

We assist youngsters like you, who have worked hard to excel academically, to get scholarships abroad. We used to do it free of charge, but nowadays we charge a fortune for the same service given past success...But nothing is cast in stone and we still do things with discretion.

Keep safe bro. The future is still bright.

[quote author=ahamonyeka post=61645633][/quote]

You're unbelievable.

If you can't debate intelligently, you should hide yourself wherever you are.

As I said, I knew what to tell you, as in people like you, but I won't say it.

It is not the end of the world if one's past performance has been average or below average. You can still make it big, many people have proved it. You don't have to be pained for not meeting certain requirements.

All the best

CAN I APPLY WITH PGD FINANCE ?
WHILE 1ST DEGREE IN INSURANCE.
THANKS

Hi, unfortunately, no. The requirements are as stated above.

If you know someone that meets them, even if not fully, link them to us. There is a commission as stated.

I already sent in about 15CVs but I'm happy to send more. The total number of people needed is 3. You can share the info. In case you need more info, I know we all like to hear figures, total compensation is 95K Euros..But as the pay is okay, hiring manager is a bit picky. I can't influence with that. I wish I could. Can only send in CVs.

ahamonyeka:
oga don't you or any of relatives like to travel?

First time I will conclude that some people here on Nairaland don't think. I hope you see this..

Does posting this reveal anything about my location or the location of my family?

But why now, critical thinking skills are taught at Nigerian universities. I remember doing logic. Did you avoid that course? They call it philosophy and logic. Did you dodge this course?

Does it make sense to hire a family member for a role they are not currently qualified for? Or do you belong to the typical class of Nigerians that put their primary six family holders in a position that is supposed to be occupied by PhD holders?

Let's hear your views. I will do my best to give you answers even though I know you don't deserve it.

I'm amazed at your logic.

The many people that the Lord is blessing through these adverts have their testimonies and I just hope none of them comes here to give you what you deserve. [b]If [/b]you fall short of the requirements that I stated in my many posts, why not ignore the posts? If you meet you meet the requirements, and are keen on the opportunities, why not challenge and see if you won't amaze yourself.

I'm doing my best to no insult, it's not healthy. Just think before you open your mouth

MrMcJay:
So, Jesus doesn't save them again, they now save themselves.

I've said it severally here on Nairaland, when these Pastors need money. they tax the church members but when the church members need money, they ask the members to pray to God.

Guy, why you dey misinterpret?

Baba Oyedepo didn't say Baba Adeboye saved him...He said a revelation was made and Baba Adeboye visited him unannounced to pray to the Lord Jesus with him.

I know some people already have a biased mind, but for fairness it's good to interpret correctly what has been read.

Praise God there was no mishap. E no dey easy.

He is not gates or zuckerberg or buffet, but I'm sure you know his bank account is orobo.

There are many people like that...Exercise is healthy..Let's all engage in it.

Me I lift with a passion, to the best of my abilities..Not benching 100KG yet, but am getting there..At least 170 push ups in 3 mins is a good achievement

Congrats bro. If anyone knows him and he is interested in studying at a top school abroad, I can work with him to achieve his dreams.

One of the reasons some of us eventually run away from great posts/topics like this is because some of you in no time would start tribalizing everything.

It's unnecessary

kizyalex10:
brains I agree,but beauty,hmmmmm remove that one abeg.congratulations to u.

Some of you just yarn. Did she create her physique? Did you create yours?

See, academic distinctions can be reached by heavy efforts and dedication..But looks are not obtained by hard work. People are born with it..Looks are great. I lift to maintain my health and physique as well..But have you ever wondered why many of the very rich guys don't value looks anymore? Because they know it's common to them but they would have to search heavily to find an intelligent and talented person to help them reach their goals, i.e. getting the right people of their team..I'm somewhat comparing apples and oranges now, but I think you get my drift.

As life goes on, you will see that looks are not an achievement. My bro, I can tell you, if you walk up to any club or some weird places, you will see many, many people with looks. They are many. I see them, at the gym, on the street, etc. But you don't come across well-achieved people academically anyhow like that.

mzpearl533:

if you like put it at 100..we went to the same secondary school together, and she is always having straight A's in all her courses then, with the minimum of 90%..that is always her lowest mark.

Nice corroboration. I had not seen your post when I responded to the man, woman, boy or girl. The girl is bright, extremely, and will do well.

If some of us who are manage, manage A's (very good) could do well anywhere, then a truly straight A person (outstanding) in Nigeria will do well anywhere even if they hike A+ to 97%. Provided the person remains hardworking.

I always give an example of one of our brethren, only 2 B's throughout BSc, completed PhD in Harvard. In his Harvard class, anybody we can think about was there because that is one of the places where some of the truly gifted or hardworking or both in the world converge..

If they take A to 80% as the man, woman, boy or girl said, people will still blast in Naija..

Jozprecious:
is distinction still around 70% or 75% in ife? it's Time to put it at 80%.

Guy, man or woman, if you're comparing this to US system, it's not a direct comparison. I know that system very well and have been graded in it and others.

A 70% distinction naija system/British is not the same as a 70% US system. It's way, way higher. 70% in naija is not easy to get.

Whether this girl got all 70's, her performance is extremely rare. We all know how smart medicine students are everywhere..She was the best of the best. And big Kudos to her.

If she goes to ''any'' university where A starts from 90, typically US, she will shine, provided others have or had been able to pass through such university.

There is a vacancy for a suitable candidate to work at a leading investment firm in Europe. Only candidates meeting the below requirements should send CVs

1. At least 1-year experience working for a bank, asset manager or other finance institutions
2. Strong research skills
3. PhD in Mathematical Finance/Economics, Actuarial Science, Physics, Mathematics, Operations Research or Engineering or other very technical fields
4. Willing to relocate to Europe or Asia

Option 3 is nonnegotiable. However, persons with MSc in the same fields + at least 4 years experience doing only quantitative work in finance and or economics etc can try their luck. Anything is possible in the interviews.

If you know someone fit, have them send in their CVs. If they get the job, you will earn 50 Euros at whatever exchange rate you wish to use between now and the time they get the job. If two people from you get the job, the commission jumps to 150 Euros.

Send CVs only to Deadline is Sunday, 15 Oct.

I know the situation of things in terms of employment, it's not easy, but can I please beg that only those specifically meeting the above requirements should send in their CVs? Please, I'm begging

Many thanks
