PoliticsRe: Auction Of 'Stolen' Nigerian Artifacts Goes Ahead In Paris by FamousMonk: 10:58am On Jul 21, 2020
Africa have completely discarded their religions and cultures and are now fanatics of the ways of the white man..
But still,the white man knows how great Africa and Africans are,this is why your artifacts are so valuable to them.
Things you don't value..

Can u come up with pics of general hospital in your own town or LGA ?
Let's compare with this !

Do it or keep quiet !
Shut up please...
This nonsense isn't a tad close to what development is in this modern day.
We are wealthier than this trash of a hospital.
We deserve more.
If you won't at least condemn this rubbish you might as well allow others to.
It ain't all Nigerians that are as content with trash like this as you are..angry

EducationRe: Is An F Grade Much Better Than a D And An E ? by FamousMonk(op): 5:20am On Jul 14, 2020
Mr2kul:
LOL,, Really @OP.... F grade does not add anything to your result (CGPA). If you like carry over the course and get an A, it won't change anything rather it gives you more load just like what this Uncle pointed out.. It reduces your chances of getting high grade point that semester. D is better than F, except you don't know how CGPA is been calculated. PERIOD
frankosivue:
Smiles... Assuming everything goes well (which often doesn't) the F will affect his overall grade making even the A no better than at best C in that particular course.
In my school,an A from a carry over course has the same value as a first time A.
That is why I made this post..

there's no certainty, it is entirely up to the student to determine the outcome. But what is certain is, he / she is getting a 2nd chance to do it. What the student does with the 2nd Chance is on the student and it's the student that will reap the reward or consequences
Exactly,I've seen people fail courses because of missing scripts,laziness,complacency and a few other reasons that has nothing to do with IQ..
I've seen students get As and Bs after an F..
And in my school,the A has the same value..

Hahjascho:
It's not better pls. Let's say someone had F in a 3unit course. Then, it will be 0points (out of 15)/3.

If he now rewrites it, say he got A, then the calculation will go thus...(0) + (15)/3=. What this means is that, 15 point is lost from the previous Cgpa calculation...i.e 0/3 in that course unit which will drastically suck your Cgpa for that semester... due to the increased number of load unit with nill points added. It's like adding 0 to the previous 4.5cgpa (e.g 135 + 0/ 30 +3) and dividing after 3load unit is added..(135/33)= 4.09. grin

Rewriting it simply means you're registering for another course unit.

If it was D or E, it means you either scored 6 or 3 out of the possible 15 (instead of 0 for F)... for that same semester.

Getting F will have done the harm already just before rewriting it....if you like gets 5As, the first would still have affected the current Cgpa just before rewriting it. I hope you understand. The higher the credit load units, the more risky your Cgpa becomes.


What the Op is insinuating is only feasible if the failed course can actually be removed... which is however not possible or when you get As in more of other courses you will be offering.
Those who understand what it means to go around campuses with calculator just for the sake of CGPA can well, relate with my points.
But in the end,every course have their required credit unit you must take..
In the end you must offer all the courses which will be added together and divided by your total points irrespective of what you got every semester.. grin

"That semester"...
But all semesters will be added to get a final grade right?
So why would that particular semester be used as a yardstick to judge this?

Ozmar:
A D or E grade supercedes an F anytime any day.

Reason; When you fail a course (F), you carry over the course to another session and you credit load increases. The effect of this increase keeps reducing your CGPA till you graduate.

Take for e.g., after your 100level, your total credit load =97. You failed a 3 unit course and this automatically becomes 100.

Credit load for 200level alone =95. Total credit load after 200level will be 192 for others while yours is 195.

Let's say after 200level, you earn a total point of 600. Your CGPA =600/195 which gives 3.08. This should have been 600/192= 3.12, if you haven't had any carry over.
In the end it's still the same thing because all your points will be added and all your credit units(from 100 level to 400 level or 500 level) will be added too irrespective of the semester arrangement..
For every course,there's a total number of credit units you're supposed to offer and it doesn't really matter if you offer those courses disorderly,in the end,they'll all be added together and divided by your total points which is the same thing..
So I think you're just talking on the short term basis..

You will appreciate D or E when you cannot graduate because of a course you scored F in. Wait till 400level second semester.
Sorry about the experience bro.
Hope you later graduated or did frustration make you drop out huh

Openbusiness3:
Yes based on this logic, F is better since it gives you the opportunity to recover. But mind you, you get to pay for the extra year. But the best one is W. Your grades won't be affected at all. And you can still resit the course later
W huh

If it's solely for boosting my GP, I would beg for an F rather than an E (clearly for a course I know it's no match for me or I was treated unjustly).
Exactly..
F is way better than an E or a D..
Those two grades are evil..
But lazy students see them as good grades. grin
EducationIs An F Grade Much Better Than a D And An E ? by FamousMonk(op): 7:21am On Jul 13, 2020
I've had this arguments often times with different people and i believe getting an F is better than a D or an E but I still would like to know if I'm wrong.
These are my reasons:
1)When you fail a course your CGPA drops drastically grin,but you automatically are entitled to re-writing the course again the next year and you will have the opportunity of getting an A or B and this might boost your overall CGPA back since the A or B from the failed course will still carry the same points.But when you get an E or a D,your CGPA is permanently ruined,no opportunity of re-writing and doing better.
2)I have a friend who got 2 F's in our 100 level and had a bad CGPA,but after re-writing the two carry over courses in our 200 level,his CGPA became better than those of some other friends who scored D's in the same courses grin. The only problem was the stress of having extra courses and walking to and from the exam officer's office to submit the new grades and have him input it..
3)D and E,even C adds nothing to your CPA,they just subtract.So F subtracts,D subtracts, E subtracts,but F offers you the opportunity of trying again.
So what is your take?
Am I missing something here?
Apart from the stigma and stress that comes with an F,do you think it is better than a D or E (pass and go grin) ?
