If the NUC child can not pass UME then how would the child get into UI, LAG or IFE

^^ In most Federal University the caliber of OAU, UI UNILAG etc, If you are the son of the VC and you score below 200, You cant get admission. Simple

Unlike in all those private Unis

When Lecturer kids cant pass UME or get up to 200, they quickly send them to those post Secondary schools

Ask most of the Covenant Students, which school was their first choice in the UME exams

Why was MEND throwing bombs during OBJ and Yar Adua tenure? Were they trying to sabotage those regimes too?

It was consensual sex .

Even clueless senators now know Retardeen is the most useless thing to ever happen to Nigeria

^^ Yaaay

Blazay why are you so wicked, you just schooled the boy

he would now cry home to mummy

oyb:
a lot of nigerians balk at sending their kids abroad for first degree.

we also have people who are dumb in regular unis.

the issue for me is that our unis are mostly teaching what our parents were taught, and with the same tools

in unilag they taught my brother engineering drawing with tee square and drawing board , just as i did in unilorin years back. today i'm a cad guru, but i had to teach myself. theres a CU grad in my office who is CAD literate because they were taught in school. if i'm hiring, i'm goin o want a person who will require the least training before he can get up to speed.

then there's programming, where most of our grads only did some 'algorithm' and learnt C , not c#, not c++, C

A university IMO is mostly to broaden your mind and not teach your specific skills thats probably the job of a technical College.

That is why you would have Science and Engineering graduates excelling in places like Wall Streets, ACCA, CFA etc are dominated mainly by Science/Engineering grads

These guys didnt learn Debit and credit in School. I know of a Big 4 Accounting firm whose leader in Nigeria studied Mechanical Engineering.

I would hire a T square engineer if he is inherently more intelligent than the CAD engineer.

How long does it take to teach CAD few weeks or months, How long does it take to get native intelligence? A lifetime

And even Private Uni dudes even on here confessed that Federal Uni guys are better in Aptitude and reasoning tests

Bill Gates probably went to school and learnt in the time of "Slide rule" Calculator but now he writes programs and design fast processors.

Give me an intelligent dude and I am OK not one who couldnt pass UME

I digress

Most consulting companies and even Business Schools just look for smart kids regardless of your background

Thats why Standardized tests dont evaluate Subject skills but rather native intelligence

E.g SAT, GRE, GMAT would never test Calculus but basic Maths you should have learnt in JSS2.

I remember in secondary school some students would be showing off with their Texas Instruments calculators while we are battling with Four figure tables.

No goals entered because there was Holger Badstuber, Jerome Boateng and Manuel Neuer all from Bayern who saved his ass

If you have money you would simply send your children abroad.

Most of those who went to private schools were those who couldnt pass UME.

A basic Material balance equation is Inflow + Addition = Outflow + (Accumulation)

Inflow = UME rejects,
Addition = Knowledge added to them from substandard tutors or at best Lecturers on sabbatical.
Now tell me what you expect the outflow to be? Outflow would simply be dregs/scums of the society

Most lecturers when their children couldn't pass UME just sent them to Babcock.

I know a guy whom everyone had given up on him going to a school, He even failed at Federal Poly Offa

Next thing I heard he was in Covenant. and guess what? He graduated with a 2-1

I'm sorry of you cant pass UME then you cant be considered to be smart at all

A University is where thinkers are groomed not where students kneel down

^^ How come Allison Madueke is now running to Retardeen to defend a lie that was concocted my Sahara reporters?

If you had a 256 in JAMB you would not be sent to a school where they would tell you to kneel down.

Your parent must be so tired of you failing JAMB countless times that they sent you to a University where you wont be allowed to use mobile phone and would have to wear a uniform like prisoners

In that picture can you spot yourself kneeling down?

One thing about Retardeen and his fans is that they never accept responsibility

It was the system who sent 170 people to Australia,

It was Mr System who went to Australia to molest women,

It was the Mr System who said we should pray for Criminals to confess

Mr System who said Terrorism is happening all over the world and we shouldnt worry

It was Mr System who wanted to extend tenure

It was the System who wanted to remove Subsidy

It was under Mr systems rule that bombs have become part of our lives

lucarella:
All of yor ranting about public universities, lemme ask u a question!
If your parents had the money, will u be in the public universities?? Just stay true 2 urselves. Covenant is by all standards better than UI or any public university. Go and check the labour market, employers want to employ private university graduates.

And if yu have not noticed, big companies are employing very young chaps. Now, out of the one thousand and sumtin students that graduated from dat dead school, i'm so sure that 85% of them are above 25 yrs . After all the strikes and evrything. And some will even have kids. SMH
Who is interested in wat student the school admits? U admit good students and make them rugged and potential criminals.

Have you ever heard it that a criminal is caught and he's from a private university?? Deceive urself some more!
I am sure that most of those first class students, especially the girls, knw how to get wat they want with wat they have, buy lecturer's books and are a little bit boxed up! mschewwwwww!!

Let me ask you a honest question.

If you passed JAMB, would you be in that secondary school called Covenant University or is it McDonald University the one in Okija?

Big companies try to employ young chaps only if they are smart, But the ones from CU and co are dead on arrival, Students who couldnt even pass JAMB, How can they hope to pass company aptitude tests?

Below are students from Bowen University a private Uni asked to kneel down

I would never send my kids to any school where they would be asked to kneel down

What a knockout on Odechukwu Retardeen Jonathan

Sam Omatseye an Itsekiri man sends Retardeen to the hospital with a right hook

No! I still don't get it. Just try to explain it to me in a precised but simple English.

^^ Not meaning to demean you, but did you do anything in Maths?

Ok in layman terms. You cant throw a figure out with telling us what you are comparing it to.

E.g "Tunde was 3rd in his class" doesn't make any sense until you tell us the number of students he is competing against

A more sensible statement is "Tunde was 3rd in a class of 50"

^^

So what does top 40 mean without the denominator.

That doesnt make sense

We know who the Boko haram backers are.

They are in the South South

One Governor even threatened to unleash Boko Haram on his own state

Yet our president Odechukwu Retardeen would not take any action, Just keeps staring like a lobotomized gorrila

badmussy:
Please point of note, I was top 40 in my class in CU on graduation and top 10 in my class in UI.

See the kind of graduates private Unis produce. And you would tell someone you are educated?

What does top 40 or top 10 mean?

An educated person or a properly educated person in a Federal uni would have said Top 40 out of 3000 student

So what does top 40 in a class of 45 tell us about you as against top 40 in a class of 5000?

So if your son says he was 3rd in a class of 3 people you would congratulate him?

You are still at the same level, I bet if you still take UME you cant pass to get into a federal Uni

What was your UME score i ask again?

Oh those killed in October 1 bombing were what? Guilty civilians?

Those killed in Atlas Cove bombing were what? Guilty Nigerians?

Educate me

badmussy:
Very Interesting Post.

I graduated from CU a few years ago. Thereafter, i went to UI for a PG.

I have experience from both.

UI's rep is on past glory. Sorry but truth. Most lecturers there are just collecting salaries from government. When we resumed in the dept. out of 16 weeks coursework, all the lecturers were away for 7 weeks. Before the started coming in sparingly. They were all back by the 11th week. Sorry, that can't happen in a private school. And i am sorry, but that was a shocking discovery for me.

The second salient point why i will say UI or most of the other federal unis as far from almighty is the quality of knowledge passed. During exams and we are to prep for exam, the same exams since 1996/97 set is still what is being set. As a matter of fact, we were being taught from the same notes.

Another is the PhD programme. It is more or less a battle programme where substance is relegated by popularity. If you are unfortunate that your supervisor is unpopular, forget it. I was once in the field report seminar for the Phd student, which is a must for the MSc students. A PhD candidate was thrown out for refering to the faculty as faculty of social sciences instead of faculty of the social science. This was embarrassing.

Others include hostels, poor internet areas, old Kenneth Dike, Old infrastructures in Lab, etc.
Not everything was poor. Roads are good, New Hall(PG) not bad.

For confidentiality purpose, i will say this dept is the most arrogant in the faculty of the social sciences.


My humble opinion is that many of us here that went to this govt unis don't want to admit, but the fact is this guys are so close. UI is an old institution and a new one of 9years shd not be compared with it but if they don't move on, it will be unarguable. It is more like comparing NITEL and MTN/Glo/Zain. Older is not necessarily better.

Let us forget the grads. Govt unis statistically can't say they produce better students. I have first hand information. Many of them tend to do exceptionally well in IQ tests. Why? I don't know. Like i said i graduated from there and i know they are not teaching them anything extra to pass such.

Many Profs of govt unis have their children in private unis. I knew abt 6 from UI when i was in school.

It is painful, but it is the truth. Govt Unis esp Fed Unis have nothing but brags.


I hope i make sense to the few rational minds out there.

Ciao!

Most of your points dont make sense at all, And I am sure you made a 2-1 from CU.

Those lecturers who send their kids to private schools do so because the kids couldn't pass UME

You also noticed that Federal unis students have better IQ than Private Uni that are a gathering of Ret-ards

Who are the lecturers in these private Universities? Those who were rejected in Federal unis

Dumb Students, Dumb Lecturers

Be honest, What did you score in UME, Was CU your first choice? What made you go to CU?

Tell me you werent ashamed to be in a secondary school called University located in Ota?

During NYSC, Most students from babcock were even ashamed to mention the names of their school.

Covenant University? Why not "God is Good" University, "Righteousness" University ?

Imagine those rubbish UME lesson centers turned to private Uni

Lead university, Ajayi Crowther University, Bowen University, "Madonna" University why not Shakira University or Beyonce university?

Another one Joseph Ayo babalola university? WTF Someone can just write his full name and add University to the end of it

Soon we would have "Beaf Gbawe Ajanlekoko" University

i think you have had enough of that burukutu because you are obviously mistaken a federal vato for a [size=28pt]convenant[/size] vato. try some peppersoup. it will clear your face small.

Bros. You can speak Pidgin cos my Computer cant process all these rockets

buzugee:
see this drunk man.  i fail to see the shelling i just committed. LOL

"AXE" your teachers to show you the shelling.  

Oh I forgot the lecturers are NCE graduates, they have to wait till UI is on vacation for real professors to come over before you can see learned tutors

GBAGAUN GBAGAUN GBAGAUN !!!!!!!

ECOMOG soldiers are around

Who taught you in Covenant? You need to ask for a refund or was that from FREE dictionary too

https://refinedminds.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/nuclear_bomb.jpg

Bros can you pls enlist in the military? The Taliban stands no chance around you

So it was impossible for Retardeen to check? This was someone awarded like 10yrs ago not 100yrs ago

Well Odechukwu is too retardeed to process any information, He probably doesnt even remember how to use the bathroom.

WHat a shame.

But if na to go Dick in hand harassing Australian women, He would be in the fore front

buzugee:
ill rather be taught with a free dictionary than with no dictionary which seems to ubiquitously be the case with all you federal boys. heck yall cant put a sentence together without shelling. this aint iraq or afghanistan mahfukaz, we dont need you launching your arsenal of weapons on us defenseless peaceful civilians if you have an affinity for shelling why dont you enlist in the army or something ?

I thought Covenant was the place where those demented students who couldn't pass JAMB were camped into a boot camp where they cant even use cell phones and must wear uniforms.

In war times, these intellectually deficient people would have been sent to war fronts to detonate landmines as they are not useful for any other thing.

ordinary UME they couldnt pass. UME is one of the easiest EXAMS you can face in your life yet these Covenant ppl couldn't pass

They were camped like Prisoners to ensure that they face their studies, If left alone, they would surely fail like they have done all their lives

If you have a son who cant gain admission, Send him to Covenant, where they would issue him a degree for a fee.

ugosly:
The guy is lucky he is messing with a cool headed dude lyk the president!!

You mean he is messing with a Retardeed dude like Odechukwu Retardeen Jonathan

And you paid that high fees to be taught with a FREE dictionary?

You suppose petition the school and ask for your change
