Bro... I'm seriously looking for more money to futher my education... But here you are PRIVILEGED.

why do u really wanna go to uni and what do u wanna study if I may ask?

alexiej:
Of course it doesn't mean u can't make it in life. What it just means is that you should do jamb again and get back to school.
You have to make yourself like being in school. I'm nt sure most pple like it, but u gotta study anyway. If we all had a choice (in the real sense of it), veeery few pple wuld be in skul. But we all know we have to av our degree.
What I'm saying is, evn if ull end up doing photography and stuff, u still need ur degree. It gives you an edge in life. Its not only about the money. I don't see myself giving my daughter out to a drop out, for example, even if he's rich.

What I see abt this country is that masters degree is fast becoming the threshold.. Like, the normal qualification that pple are expected to have now. So, already, its already getting to a point where avin just the BSc isn't enough. It's like in the next 20-30 yrs, pple that don't av tertiary degrees wuld be looked upon like primary skul dropouts, cos a LOT of pple wuld be aving MSc, and PHd.

My point is, u really need skul... The degree, I mean. Pls go back to skul.

thanks, I get your point but the thing is, I really can't concentrate in school, like I have no interest atall in what I'm studying... i'm thinking of going for a professional training in photography.... my grades is nothing to write home about cos I really don't have interest in school... what's the point in going to school if I won't be using the certificate? I could do great in that 4years i'll be spending in uni... thanks for your advise and time.... bless you

I know Walt Disney, Orji Uzor Kalu, Steve Jobs and other billionaires that dropped out of school didn't ask this question on Nairaland.

I'm not Steve jobs or Walt Disney, cos they didn't ask on a platform didn't mean they didn't seek advise.... know what you are talking about... thanks anyway... God bless

wait make i ask google ... mtcheeww

I don't know the problem with stupid and foolish minded people, must you comment? are u crazy? u must be very foolish, this is important to my life and u are saying shit... idiot

After my first year in uni I found out that school is definitely not my thing, its not like I'm a dullard but everything about school makes me sick, I hate being in school environment, I don't pay attention I'm class cos I have little or no interest in what they teach. I was studying industrial relations and personnel management, it's not like I knew what the course was about, I just had to apply for it all in the name of 'Admission'... I mean who dreams of becoming a personnel manager as a kid... c'mon.
I've always loved anything that has to do with Internet, computer,photography,comedy and video recording...
But my fear now is the fact my parents will never understand my reason, I haven't told anyone in my family about this, my dad lives abroad, it's not like he cares about me or anything, he only pays for my tuition and that's about it.
I've had to hustle on my own in school to survive, also considering the fact that I'm someone who will never do what I don't like , I rather die... i've decided to hustle and save up my money to go for a course on photography and video editing..
I've got big dreams about my passion and I know where I'm going but I'm scared cos people say without education you are nothing... But it's obvious 'school is not for everyone'
I need advise please..
