Ghostwriting is becoming a menace in the educational sector,particularly in higher education. However, it is not illegal (yet - since, so far, there is no law banning ghostwriting).

My question is, what can Universities do to curb the menace of ghostwriting?

Asking because this is really changing the face of our educational system. Even Lecturers/teachers outsource their articles to ghostwriters.

Just about yesterday after speaking with my Class advicer, I was left in a depressed state.

I am currently on my 400level IT and I am to return back to school this coming new year by January. He told me about my result. He said my CGPA is the highest so far. Which makes me his best student. I asked him for the exact CGPA which he replied with with a *4.06*. My God I wondered why he was glad to break such a sad news to me. I thought I had chances of making it a 4.1+ the previous semester. I told him thanks. But I know I wasn't Happy

I did the maths...and I found out that the highest CGPA I can make is 4.2+ after my final year(2 semesters left) I feel terrible right now. How can I shift it to 4.3+ Cgpa? I have heard of students borrowing courses but I don't really know if this could be one of their reasons for doing such.


NB: I am not in anyway trying to make it look like having such a CGPA is bad or I am ungrateful. It's just that I have plans of applying for scholarships to study abroad but won't such a Gp hinder me?

Pls I need someone to placate me with motivational words. I feel like a looser. After all these years of studies! What if I loose the passion for school or studies after returning next year? I feel real bad

What if I might even loose the chance of being the best graduating student of my set like my class adviser had said

Most scholarships (above 80%) require a minimum 4.0 CGPA on a 5.0 scale. So you just have to maintain your grades or go higher. There are great opportunities out there, so don't let the self-imposed depression hold you back.

Since the mail was sent by human capital partners (hcp), I think we should look at their past questions

I heard something of which i believe Marvel68 heard it too but I'm yet to confirm the authenticity of the info (final prediction) to avoid strapping.

Marvel can share if he confirm before me.

Xtruzz/Marvel68 collabo make sense
I suppose DPR will reach out soon

Xtruzz:
Senate/House committee on Petroleum Upstream/Downstream has been discretely settled a week before budget was sign & transmitted to Mr. President. A typical case of FIRS & Senate/House committee on finance in 2016. These Senators always have there ways of getting what they ever wanted.

Take my word to the bank.

Hello Xtruzz, please check your mail.

Marvel68:
Merit included.

Please kindly respond to your email sir. Thanks much.

For those of us at the submission stage, kindly cross-check your DoB before clicking to submit. I noticed that my DoB changed to a default setting of 1/1/1970. Even after going back to the Bio-data pane to reset it, I still saw same 1/1/1970 on the confirmation page. Please we should all be vigilante to avoid arguments during other levels of the recruitment process.

I noticed same too. Even when I change it, still goes back to the 1970 default.. I think we'd just have to wait and retry later
