Your experience don't count as a pg student, you are matured and really not into the school culture, it's when you come in as a wide eyed naive teenager or early twenties and the life and culture of the school hit you hard you know you are on a rollercoaster and your life can never remain the same, even if you live as a puritan born again or hijab sister watching things from the side line you are still blown away, I did my first degree and masters there, you are an outsider as a post graduate student, Unilag is da bomb,

cool cool cool smiley smiley

see the difference between a unilag and another university's product. See her articulation and the way she brought forth her points nicely and without insult or abuse of other school.

I will address two issues here.

1. The idea or should I say what gave birth to post utme was examination malpractice. post utme is for you to defend your jamb score. Have you ever heard of any prospective candidate dull or smart who will come out of unilag post utme exam hall and say he/she has issues with current affair questions. I have not seen, they don't complain about english either except mathematics.

Law student for example are made to write eng maths and general paper. The english questions are what my cousin in Jss3 can answer, the current affair is something evetybody can answer the law students are now left with further maths that can be answered by few. what's left is now luck.

2. The girl with zero score. Its possible its computer error, I agree. She may be so unlucky that is also possible, but how come her name is on merit list. on what basis. if computer gives her zero, that's her score on the system. any other score given to her is a fabricated score.
This is what I know, there is huge corruption in unilag admission process. its a common knowledge, no school in nigeria is innocent of this but corruption is pronounced very loud in unilag among elite schools in nigeria.

Your point number two, let me bring it from another light.
the computer could have recorded her real score but brought out zero. such errors happens. Ask IT people, they can tell you more about input and output. And if you have done CBT exams in Unilag as a student, you would have experienced something like this or a friend should have (where you would click on ur answers to questions and at the end, the computer would show that you didnt answer, the cbt guys would tell you that you shouldnt worry, that if you clicked on answers and click on submit that its registered, that you can go. when result comes out, you would see yours)

I am not taking out the fact that there could have been fraud, but look at things from different angles.

yes Unilag admission process might be sketchy, but same goes to other schools. But one thing I know about Unilag and can confidently say is that if you meet you cut-off mark, and your jamb combo is correct, you would be admitted. Take Unilorin for instance, they dont release cut-off mark, no admission list, how does one vet their process? I had 70 and 75 in my putme in unilorin the two years i picked them, but i wasnt admitted, and someone that had 50 was.

I can boldly say, Unilag's admission process is the most plain process among federal schools, from the onset, you know where you stand.

Yes your assertion above are correct. I never get hostel since 100 level and am in 400 level.

Lemme now explain better. The quality of your student is a function of your admission process. Unilag admission process as we speak can be improved upon.

UI nevergave credence to waec in those years, before 2012. what they did was 60-40 for waec and jamb. Mind you it was just for invitation for oral interview not automatic Admission. It is your score during interview that gives you admission. I passed through the process.

During 2012, UI reviewed its admission process and start conducting post utme exam.

What unilag needs to do is to review its admission process. how can you force a law student to write maths in its post utme, not even basic maths o, but further maths.

Hostel under construction cannot provide accomodation to current students simple so it is irrelevant.

Lastly oou or uniosun can have the overall best student, but on the average UI students can only be rivalled by ife students.

my opinion though.

i so love your comment because of your end phrase "my opinion though"

Hostel accommodation is a problem in all public universities, dont single Unilag out. We dont need to debate who has the best hostel among Unilag, UI and OAU, its very obvious

And let me brief you a lil bit. before last two years, Unilag didn't care about waec in order for one to be admitted, waec only comes in place when an admitted student is been screened. Its from 2016 that unilag started doing the waec-jamb quota thing.

then take you back to 7years ago, Unilag's putme wasnt maths, eng and current affair, it was strictly your jamb combination.

You said UI didnt take waec serious, lets assume a student had C parallel in WAEC and he's putting in for lets Biochemistry, truthfully ask yourself, would the student be invited for UI's oral interview in those years? and if the student isnt invited for oral interview, the student can never be admitted into UI

If the quality of your admission process determines the quality of your student, we all know how some people write their waec and get really nice grade. Truthfully ask yourself, which of the two school's process would/should be questioned?

A law student coming to write putme, didnt the law student write maths in his/her waec? its unfortunate that few questions in the maths for putme are kinda hard but also, an engineering student would know less current affair, so, the maths balances the current affair.

Then this is just a random thought, if you wrote waec, then jamb, why should i once again test you in the subjects that this two examination bodies tested you in? I would give you something totally different. this is more reason why i loved UI's oral interview then (but before one would be picked for the interview ehn)

You opinion about your choice for best university is registered, as for me, I am not really after who has the best student or not, I prefer one that can deliver in the market place, be it Unilag or UI or even university of yobe(if there's anything like that)

4 hostel under construction ke el kanemi is re modelled and sodeinde has been renovated.
I don't know where you see your own. As for waec. we all know UI does not give a hoot about waec. infact they were forced to consider jamb this year. We all know how many people get their waec result.

Unilag does not have accommodation provision for 6000 students am telling you. even if 10 hostels are under construction. Do students live in uncompleted building?

Lastly I never said ui is totally I said largely. The fact that they accept 2 sitting in waec does not affect the 'merit'

under construction means what? remodeling or renovation isnt construction shey?

scholars hostel opp medical centre is not under construction abi?
ulws hostel beside honours hostel is not also under construction shey?

and thats a total number of what hostels under construction?

you see bro, i dont just post, i post fact..then i wont support unilag blindly, but this ur down-casting is unmerited.

and we all know ui gives a hoot abi waec, wasnt it until recently that ui started conducting putme, the basis for invitation for oral interview those years was what? please do ur findings well bro...now that ui does putme, waec is also a very important criteria, also go and make findings on how ui derives their aggregate..would have told u but since you chose to argue without fact, go and find it out for urslf and then do the honorable thing unilag did when they found out that the admission list was compromised..

and i never said ui accepting two sitting in waec negates their admission process

ui, oau has good students, nobody is doubting it. unilag also has good students.. telling the dude that if he goes to ui/oau, he would understand, please ehn, understand what? i have been to ui many times, their students are not better than unilag's student. but i wont downcast you yet, please just tell us the basis of ur judgement....

I hope this shuts you up for life but if it doesn't,I'd simply let you walk away with your ignorance.

By your own wisdom, it is wise to appraise how serious the students of a school are by the number of second class lower division being produced but not by the first class? How wise.

You have vehemently stuck to that wonky line of argument but I asked you to name schools which you can comfortably vouch for their students as being more studious and serious than those in Unilag, alas, all you could do is shy away.

I'd just take the pain to set the record straight and inform you of some simple knowledge you should arm yourself with about recent convocation across campuses in Nigeria before spewing incoherent information.

For the record, unilorin recently produced 7, 174 graduates as announced at the last convocation. Just somehow, 5, 153 of them finish with lower and below. If you do your maths correctly, a bit above 71% had poor result according to your perception of those class of grade. I didn't fabricate that, facts don't just lie.

http://punchng.com/89-students-bag-first-class-at-unilorin-class-at-unilorin/

In 2016, UI in a similar fashion convoked 5,598 graduands but sadly, 3,760 of them bagged lower credit and below, it means 67% didn't perform too well too. I didn't fabricate that either.

http://www.currentschoolnews.com/school-news/117-bag-first-class-as-university-of-ibadan-graduates-5598-students/


Ahmadu Bello University also convoked 13,149 graduates in 2016 but surprisingly, 10,974 of them making 83% bagged lower credit and below.

https://www.premiumtimesng.com/regional/nwest/197783-ahmadu-bello-university-produces-89-first-class-305-ph-d-holders.html

Unilag just like other affected institutions is not left out in the show of shame. In January 2017, unilag convoked 6,900 graduating students, 4, 447 had lower and below which amounts to 64%.

https://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/more-news/220867-unilag-award-first-class-degrees-231-graduates.html

Isn't it surprising that the same unilag that happen to house the highest number of unserious students on the planet according to you convoked the least percent of graduates with "poor grades"? How ironic. It has also produced the highest number of first class graduates in recent time. Since that's your point of argument, if this doesn't convince you enough, then I don't understand how you learn.





If that's the way to say 'thank you' for learning the right phrase to have used in that context, I'd say you're welcome.

It's rampant in unilag but you haven't given me a prove of when last some students were withdrawn for low academic performance. The management has even been gracious to provide people with academic challenges the opportunity to transfer.

UI, an institution with stringent entry requirements as unilag somehow admitted 580 students into the system who didn't have it go well at the end of their first year. Does it mean UI and her students condone unseriousness on campus? In case your wonky way of thinking can't still proffer you with the correct answer, please know that the answer is NO. It only means all school have their varying number of unserious students, none being excluded.

https://www.pmnewsnigeria.com/2017/10/20/580-first-year-ui-students-face-withdrawal-from-school-vc/

I'm already fully aware that you lack proper understanding on the subject you choose to argue about but we can try to educate you. You dare say "rampant in UNILAG" when you may never have set a foot on the soil of any other institution. This kind of reasoning is dangerous, unfortunately, not to you alone but to many ignorant friends who may not be opportune to verify every gibberish that flows from your head.



Don't be confuse dear, the subject of discuss can't go down without making comparison. You can't say law is the toughest faculty and expect me to argue why it's not without making necessary comparison with other faculties and why they may be better. This is common sense.




You welcome. Should it be that you get so lucky in life to meet those who would change your orientation to pally with mine, you may come around and we can be good friends.




Quick to call me unlearned but the trait of an uneducated fellow is dangling round your neck. I wish you luck as you go about with you myopic perception of seeing things.





Lol. . . This guy aways bursting my brain. Empty barrel wouldn't cease to amaze me, as empty as it is, it's rather unfortunate that it makes the loudest noise.

thanks once again bro.. if @damosky still comments unjustly, it woulds speak a lot of his character and personality.

unilag and its students are no saints, same goes to other schools. We are not saying Unilag is all perfect, but its not crooked as you paint it. We that went to unilag or are still going to unilag would not just seat back and watch you malaise the school unfairly in the process warp the understanding of many that gets informed in nairaland.

Bros you still dey this matter? That N500k you see there is what OND operators will earn in ExxonMobil. Infact with bulk upfront payment, I can guarantee you OND operators in Eket will probably earn over N12m per annum.

Let me tell you a true narrative that might help you to disregard all those fictional and conservative salary data you have been researching.

Whenever I go to glass door to enquire about some type of pay, you get some feedback. Any attempt to go further will require you to put in your own pay package as a way to continue to build their database of records.

At this point, I always turn back, rather than enter my own pay information. Many in my industry are like me, some will even tender any false amount they can think of. Many will never even dissuade you from the false information that you have as fallacy mistaken for fact.

An graduate engineer in any of the oil majors earn more than N1m per month when you look at the total earning for a whole year and divide by 12months.

If someone tells you he earns N800k per month but has already received a separate bulk pay of over N10m for the year, is that not over N1.5m per month?

Now I am telling you that some will earn that N1.5m minus bulk pay and they have never been promoted and got in as trainee engineers with some of the IOCs.

It is left for you to believe or not. Nobody will show you their payslip. Even husbands and wives hide such from each other.

Now leaving the entry level, do you know some people earn over $2000 dollars per day working as senior field consultants in deepwater operations for some of the IOCs on 28days rotation, so they only work every other month that equals 6months out of 12 months. Every amount or scenario I have ever given, are of people I know.

Many will never reveal what I have revealed, I also intend to reveal no more than this.

okai, thanks for the clarity..

A thought pattern is very low without pellucid premises to show how low it is.
Hmm, how smart!

Asking what the basis for the statistics is goes to show how minute and meagre your sense of observation is.
Are the number of students expelled for failing to catch up with their academic requirements not enough pointers?
What about the intermittent massive failures experienced generally year in and out?
What about the number of students that graduate with average results and less year in and out?


Are the students in these categories not " MANY?

Even senior lecturers and senior school staffs will tell you students are generally unserious.

What's the cause of such accusations if "MANY" came for academic proposes.

Your phobia for "MANY" seems to owe to your lack of thorough education in semantics. Consult a dictionary. MANY may then seize to be "very strong" to hamper your sense of comprehension.

Many students of UNILAG came either to pass time or to have fun. Any learned mind wouldn't get troubles comprehending that.




you are very funny and lack communication skill.

I wonder who you are trying to impress with unnecessary vocabularies..

"MANY" was a wrong word to use.

the facts you claim to tender, whats the source? you definitely have bad friends who unfortunately are or were unilag students. i believe that those friends were the source for your facts


writerights:


I'm surprise at the level of ironic and rather inconsistent data you're messing the cyberspace with.

The University over many years now has consistently produced the highest number of first class graduates amongst Nigerian universities. Recently, one of her students broke a stone age African record by graduating with a perfect cgpa of 5. Just at the last convocation, the school produced two graduates with a perfect point of 5, one of whose programme duration lasted for 5 years.

All across the world, students are advised to withdraw and NOT expelled over poor academic performance. I really can't remember the university releasing any statistics of expelled students at any time. If they did, I really don't understand why that should be a big deal because it's obtainable everywhere across Nigerian schools.

Not too long ago, university of Ibadan, which you may claim houses serious minded students, was to send off about 20% of their newly admitted students for poor performance, does that depict unseriousness on that campus?

Your arguement is invalid and not sound as well. I honestly don't think you're sound either, but I'd give you the benefit of a doubt.

Since when I was a boy, my teachers and parents have sang iteratively to my hearing how students of these days aren't as serious as then, is that a justification to single out unilag for that offence?

My dear, you have no point to justify a reckless statement you made earlier but since it's a faceless forum, you can keep your regrets to yourself.

thanks bro, there is no need to argue with him, he's probably one of those that unilag denied admission..

Let me put this in perspective. I think the first place to start is to use google, or ask those who are in the business what ERP is and what value an ERP project will cost a medium to large-size organisation? Secondly for you to ask what ERP is, signifies that you are not conversant with the software/solution projects. If this premise is correct then making bold statements to adduce fraud to the cost of deployment of a solution portal is somewhat deceptive. I believe a simple and honourable thing to have done is to first ask if this is realistic and let those that have knowledge in it explain (who knows? it might be bloated). To now make bold and assertive statements and claim it is fraud (on a totally ignorant premise) But when someone says "visit the website and tell me if it is worth N700m...." just tells me such a person is totally ignorant and arrogantly displaying his ignorance

So the ERP project I superintended consisted of the following
1. Financials
2. HR
3. Supply Chain
4. Materials Management
5. Logistics

Now all these work at the background, but most solutions are web-enabled, so what you see at the front-end is just a web pages, making it look like you simply launch a website. In software business, licensing cost takes a huge chunk. This is where you're really paying for the intellectual property/patented knowledge. If my memory serves me right we paid over 350k Euros for the first 50 user license(phase 1) and 420k upgraded to 150users at phase 2, then you pay deployment cost, annual maintenance, updates and upgrades, training (some of your users are flown abroad for training). Then when you consider user support, which is billed per hour, the cost keep going up

Pls note, I cannot give you fine details beyond this level, as this is my company's confidential information. I hope this serves.....

did i in anyway imply fraud from what you quoted?

the comment i implied fraud, didnt i show a link supporting my claim.

you can pass out info without insulting one. your field of specialty is not my field of specialty, but clouding your comments in technical terms does no good to anybody other than making you think you are better and making others think that you are a fool who's bad at communicating sanely

And yet some claim ICT has made the world a global village, forgetting that cave dwellers like you still exist far from the periphery.


if you follow the thought pattern from previous post, you would understand properly what he is saying..

america used $9m for their government website, take note (the american government). since dollar is the currency of usa, $9m dollars is just $9m dollars.

ministry of minning used $2.1m, take note (just a ministry and not the whole Nigeria government). since dollar aint nigeria's currency, we have to convert it amounting to +N700m

since you want to compare Nigeria to america, juxtapose our conditions, how much would american government use to design their site? it would amount to $900m..

understand things well before you jump to comment

and then, if one ministry used $2.1m for its website, lets say we have 10 ministries in Nigeria, thats about $21m, is Nigeria bigger than the american government?

You posted a news and your purpose was to castigate the amount like a slowpoke who knows nothing, in a bid to have other ignoramuses who don't even know what salary they deserve to earn as graduates, come online and begin to wail over an amount their lack of exposure has defined as outrageous.

You have not provided the least technical defence to your position. As far as you are concerned, it is much because you have said so, and everyone else must agree with you.

However, I have more exposure than that. $2m on a web portal is nothing as long as it is worth the value.

As for it not being fully functional, even the news report had already alluded to the need of trained people to run it, while also stating clearly that an aspect of the portal features would only be available in Q1 of 2018.

You don't have to be so miserable hopping about and looking for what to wail over.

Before I was admitted via direct entry into the faculty of engineering with my ND result, I had the following:

1. Distinction from a recognised polytechnic
2. Credit pass in F - maths
3. O/Level at one sitting


My friends who finished with upper all rushed to OAU and were all admitted. They never did F - maths and some may not have cleared their O/level at a sitting. When throwing banter at one another, I still tell them they wouldn't have made it to unilag with the high standard that has been laid.


thanks for this bro

at my place of work, a fellow worker couldnt apply to unilag then because she graduated with upper credit (3.40) form yabatech in Quantity Surveying, she had to go to OAU. Unilag minimum requirement was a distinction

And why are you forgetting or ignoring the fact that UNILAG is the only school that has for years insisted on One sitting while other schools like UI accommodate multiple sittings and combination of O'LEVEL results.It's so funny that you still think 40% score is enough to guarantee you admission in UNILAG.My advice for you is to experience the battle of survival in getting admission in UNILAG first and you will know why for years,it had been the university of first choice.F or decades,more candidates in Nigeria prefer to attend UNILAG than any other schools including UI sir
The carrying capacity of university is not fixed sir.As we speak right now,Faculty of Pharmacy of UI has lost its accreditation and have their capacity reduced and UI has a lower admission ratio for undergraduate than the 40:60 UNILAG has adopted.

also, only unilag's faculty of law has full accreditation to run a law degree in Nigeria, OAU,UI have partial accreditation..

40% that some people are claiming, i doubt it, please show proof.. the last time i checked, unilag admission portal clearly stated, ''ELIGIBILITY:
Interested candidates with the necessary requirements who scored 12 and above in the University’s Post-UTME are eligible to apply'' 12marks in post utme is = 40%...so, 40% isnt the total aggregate, its just your postjamb score..

@ivandragon ,

I think the challenge @Throwback is innately throwing at you to to come up with the technical justification that the cost is not worth it. This pre-supposes a good knowledge of an integrated GIS portal solutions especially as applicable in the extractive industry. If you can show that justification, then it's going to be education to us all.

BUT.........

Your first gaffe is calling it a "website"......... secondly saying "visiting the website" will give you the impression of the cost...to me shows you are total ignorant in this regard.

I worked in the IT field for the first 9yrs of my life, I was involved with and led enterprise project implementation. We invested over $1.6m on ERP for a single organisation..... so when "you people" call it "website", I laugh at your ignorance

why somebody would misquote you for this post.

when using technical terms, try to put your correspondent in view, ask yourself questions and be very logical..
whats ERP?
you can help us to properly buttress what this is. its not a website, then what is it
what makes it justify the cost
someone earlier gave a little breakdown, 200mil to design, maintain and train for 2yrs, your $1.6m is for what?

Please do some proper investigation.

6,000 dollars a month is about that figure.

72,000 dollars, no engineer worth his salt with international experience would touch that figure.

You may be right especially if you are quoting from Jamb brochure but if you had attended UNILAG,especially, Faculty of Engineering, you will understand that your five credits without Further Maths will not get you admitted sir.
The other schools like UI and Ife you mentioned, have for decades, had lower admission criteria like accepting two sittings of O'LEVEL and even lower cutoff marks than UNILAG and I wondered how you think 8,000 is still lower than its carrying capacity when you don't have your fact and the school management that has the fact that the in actual fact ,the school has even reduced it's admission ratio in favor of Post Graduate. For ages,UNILAG has always maintained the highest criteria for admission so the outgoing university is just continuing with the tradition of the school.

thank you soo much..
they would just be talking bad about unilag without doing proper findings.
bro, its not only engineering o, computer sciences, mathematics and physics needs futher maths in addition to the five olevel subject in order to be considered for admission..

me i like backing things up with facts, see the pix below

Bros it is 5 credit in one sitting. There is no university in Nigeria whose admission requirement is 6 credit in one sitting.

Unilag post utme cut off is 40. Ife and Ibadan will never accept 49.9999 for Yoruba education.

lastly where is the facility to train 8000 fresher's. the available hostel capacity for all the students nearing 40000 does not exceed 6000.

The school is admitting way above capacity. They should learn from UI whose admission is largely based on merit

cut-off is 40% for what course?

and you cant come here to tell us that UI's admission is totally based on merit, everybody knows that this is not true..

If you meet the merit, you would get admitted in unilag, but there are also conditions, ur jamb combination must be correct, and also meet the waec requirements...some people would fail in one of the requirements but pass the cut-off point and then they would expect to be admitted..

Unilag has the facility to train the number of students it chooses to admit, and the hostel capacity exceeds 6000, and thats just for the already built hostels, more than 4 new hostels are under construction..

Unilag might not be totally transparent in its admission processing, UI or OAU is no way better in this aspect also, but whats merited would be given

then the comment you responded to, Unilag doesnt accept two sittings for even igbo education, UI only does one sitting for medicine or you can prove me wrong

lastly see the picture i attached for education faculty that has the lowest cut-off mark

shocked


Just ideal.
Take out the tares and admit the wheats.

87% of applicants to Unilag do not have academics as their main motivation.
I'm just being modest.
Unilag students are the least academically focussed in all of Nigeria.

Unilag is a cliché, a thing of class and an indication of social status rather than a citadel of academics.
To them; being a student of Unilag takes them three step higher in the rungs of their warped social ladder.

How does one explain a school whose female students are actresses in KingTBlacHoc's videos and it's male students are Ycee and Lil Kesh?


who is this sef, spewing shit this morning, you did not attend unilag, so, where did you get your statistics from?
every school has its bad side, unilag isnt an exception, but enveloping the whole school based on some bad example is totally unfair and unjust..
for every ycee, there is a PROF Osibanjo, and every lil kesh, there is Dele Olojede pulitzer prize winner, Oby Ezekwesili, Pst Adeboye , to mention a few...
please be modest and sensible with your post.

great akokite

Hahahahaha!

You are another one of them doubting Thomases.

A certain dude got a job with an oil major.

His pay package as a trainee to be further sent to France on training was over N30m/annum.

He is back in Nigeria working deep offshore with just HND, yet you are still doubting with B.Sc?

How much do you think NLNG pays its technicians who work with just HND?

Never limit yourself to your own habitat.

i wont doubt if you show proof..N30m/annum and thats 2.5m/month...wow, what would be the salary of the MD

please read well before you comment...N1m/month job with just a Bsc...
I know many people earn more than that, but please do your findings and know if they got the job with just an ordinary Bsc, no higher degree(s), no certification(s)...

Illiterates should only speak on basic topics that can be argued at a beer parlour.

Spending $2m on a portal depending on what the complexities of it are and what level of integrated database is required, is not a child's play.

The ministry has itself revealed this information freely to the public, to prevent the likes of you from making a mockery of serious business initiatives as some scandal that has been exposed.


please ehn,dont think that because many are not experts in ICT makes them a fool..
please check out this link; https://digital.com/blog/how-much-does-website-cost/

$2m is outrageous..

also, try to search for the top ten web designer in the world and see their charges, its not even upto $1m..

You remind me of a dude who I schooled with and served NYSC with.

While discussing our career plans as engineers and what potential jobs were available for fresh graduates like us, I told him assertively that I couldn't settle for a job pay less than N500k/month. He looked at me with such disgust, wondering why a fresh graduate should feel so entitled to such pay he found outrageous. He contended that N100k/month was good enough.

Less than a year after service, he got his own N100k/month job while I got myself a N1m/month type of job. I still wasn't contented and aspired for something better, while my pal is still today aspiring towards a pay windfall of N500k/month.

This same category of people wonder why I would spend N45K on a Lacoste polo shirt or N60k on a Tommy Hilfiger jeans. When you can buy same at Balogun market in Isale Eko for less than N5k each.

The above true story is the mentality in display when people wonder why one website is N2m and another is N500m or more. Lack of exposure!

before you claim to get a job of n1m/month with just bsc(thats according to the storyline), please show us proof ehn....
