write up modified. Let others students visit the thread and comment so that this ill will be addressed.

Right now, an austere and fruitful demonstration/movement is in progress on that thread.
Kudos!

Hello fellow NOUN students. I am a Political Science student(fresher) here in benin study center. Please I need someone who have experienced my current predicament to answer me. I just did Pol126 e-exam today and my score was 69/120 which is equal to 40.25/70. Added to my tma score of 29.5, it gives a total score of 69.75/100. My question is; Does noun round up exam scores before collating the results or are they simply going to give me a B? I finished my first semester with 9 straight As and it pains me to be commencing my second semester exam with a B.

It is not done anywhere, even in Conventional Universities.

It is like someone currently having a 3.49CGPA and hoping they will 'round it up' to 3.50CGPA(Second Class Upper Division).

May God continue to grant you a retentive memory!

Hiploko:
let's start by creating a thread for that. I hope all NOUN students would buzz the thread so that it makes FP and we go from there

Sorry for the awfully late response. I was busy due to some logistic reasons. We can literally start from this kind of avenue.

However, I will implore all NOUN students to bombard the thread en mass with productive and reasonable comments, so as to draw the Public and NOUN scrutiny.

Moreover, you don't need to be a victim before you start commenting. We've gatz to cry out now because it can be your turn next. Though, I've never experienced such, but I have friends who are victims of this menace.

Guys, the spate of missing results in NOUN is becoming worrisome. Some students 2 or more others their entire exams. Annoying as it seem after complaining and sending mails and writing letters of request of release of result yet they won't respond or take action on it. rather you'll be asked to repeat the exam and TMA again which is just not right. I don't know what its like in the south but from opinions the north seems to be worst hit and its a contributory factor to low patronage of the programme here. Guys what do we do??How do we pass this message across to them??

Bros, It is a contemplative puzzle which no one gatz answers to.

Actually, I/We can advise those students with 2 or 3 missing scripts/results to re-write their papers. But, for those with 4 or 6 missing scripts out of 8 courses. Are we also going to tell them to re-write all the 4 or 6 courses?! Considering: capital, stress and time factor.

This is totally absurd and uncalled for!

This is a "Salient issue" that NOUN should look into.

Kkhikkhi:
Good day everyone. I want to apply for communication technology in Noun direct entry, came out with lower 3.2 in poly ib computer science is it possible. thanks

Unarguably,

The Polytechnic Grading System is:

3.50-4.00CGPA is equivalent to 'Distinction'
3.00-3.49CGPA is equivalent to 'Upper Credit'
2.50-2.99CGPA is equivalent to 'Lower Credit'
2.00-2.49CGPA is equivalent to 'Pass'
0.00-1.99CGPA is equivalent to 'Fail'


Your 3.2CGPA is actually an Upper Credit Division. Since your CGPA falls within 3.00-3.49(which is upper credit) you're good to go.

In addition, admission is granted on the strength of the information supplied by the student while filling the form.

Best of luck!

Please help me check when u will be writing PHY 131 on your time table,I need the info urgently pls.

PHY131 is not on the timetable as well.

JigsawKillah:
anyone else seen phy113 in his/her exam timetable?
the date please

It seems the matter of contention concerning this timetable is that they mingled both PHY111(Elementary Mechanics) and PHY113(Heat & Properties of Matter) to make PHY101(Elementary Mechanics, Heat & Properties of Matter). Though, I wouldn't know if that's a new course.

You will definitely not find PHY113 and PHY111 on the timetable. You can only see PHY101. Perhaps, a mistake from them. If it wasn't a mistake, then they should have at least notify students about the new development.

In the nutshell, stay put and watch the situation of things till next week. Maybe, some modifications would be made.

Sike:
Any ibadan study center student in the house, pls I want to know if u Guys have finished your ongoing exams. I been wanting submit my credentials for my registration as a new student but nobody to attend to me cuz of examination. thanks

The same modus-operandi is applicable to other study centers.
You would need to wait till after the e-exams. Visit your SC after the e-exams, they'll tell you the appropriate/specific time to submit your credentials.

Definitely!

martins022:
gud day house, am a 200l second semester student. I only paid for semester compulsory fee. Cldn t pay n reg for course reg n exam. pls wil I HV to continue 200l 2nd semester or 300l sumone shld enlighten me....

Normally, you'll have to continue with 200L second semester come next year.

Having said that, you can as well add some courses from 300L first semester to your 200L second semester registrable courses if you know you would be "financially and intellectually" capable of doing so.
And remember, the maximum course unit you can register per semester is 24 units.

The aforementioned method will compress the semester you've already missed.

Hello, please I hope one can secure an admission into noun through direct entry?

Undoubtedly, yes!

Please nounites
Am missing my paper tomorrow cus of ill health n there is no channel to communicate it to my sc tomorrow.
1.What do i do so that it wont count as a carry over.
2. Whats the required total units to passed for PGD?
Cus all listed in my portal are 34units including project.
Pls ur immediate reply will be appreciated.
Thank u.

1) Do not bother yourself. You don't need to communicate with your SC. It won't reflect on your result, since you won't write it tomorrow.
2) For PGD, a student is required to pass a minimum of 30 credit units from relevant courses.

Get well soon!
Guerissez bientot!

thanks a lot, very helpful
am currently working on my project haven't started seminar thou. thanks a bunch for the advice

You're most welcome.

please what is/are the conditions for graduating from noun?

am in 400level first semester and I want to start working towards preventing anything that will stop me from finishing March next year. I have written more than 120 credit load. but I have some courses, five or six, that are showing as pending or failed. will they prevent me from graduating or should I rewrite them?

please any general or specific advice will be appreciated.
thanks in advance

The conditions for graduating from NOUN are:

1) Seminar.
2) Industrial Training.
3) Minimum of 120 credit units.
4) Project.

Judiciously, it's advisable you re-run your pending and failed courses. Telling you to re-run the failed ones and ignore the pending ones doesn't make any iota of sense. Re-write the failed ones to earn half of your point/grade back and the pending ones to avoid any form of obstacles.

Furthermore, try to start working on your project on time. Do not wait till 400L second semester, so as to finish and submit it without hassles and to meet the deadline for project submission.

baba11:
OK thank you very much

Uwc, bro.

I've done all my examinable courses and pass them with distinctions but where the issue lies now is:I went to SC today to collected a form to fill thesis result as requested by my supervisor,but I was told to come back by December since there's no one to attend to me now.
Since I'm through with everything except this project submission and graduation approval by the senate, is it still possible for me to graduate come next?
PS:No date is specified for the graduation day yet

Arguably, it's still very feasible for you to graduate come next year. A friend of mine submitted his project last year Dec and he was among the graduands the following month(JAN 2015).

All you need do is, promptly after the e-exams, go back to your SC, collect the thesis result form and present it to your supervisor. At this period of time, they will still be compiling the Graduation List.

Lilylaw:
Pls I registered with Noun last year 2014 at agidingbi....and since den I have not done anytin....Cus av been busy....but want to return to studies...Can I still do change of course and continue from where I stoped at 100level First semester?

Yes!
You can actually start from where you stopped. That's one of the "commendable endowment" of the National Open University of Nigeria.

Now, for you to change your course, you would have to go to your SC. Consult your course counselor/coordinator. He/she will now be in the best position to counsel you on what step to take.

izaray:
Wow Tnks alot, I really do appreciate ur comment

You're always welcome ma'am

stevohdee:
Pls, i want 2 know if NOUN as release any of d aspecting results?

I can hardly understand you, bro.

izaray:
Pls i need u guys help here. I got admission in April, but due to some challenges, i was not able to make registration and course registry too. And they 've started writing d first semester exams already...

Now the issue is, after their exams, can i also go a head and make my registration with both sch fees and courses registration against the next session?

Am planing of doing all that at the end of this month, which i suspect they might 've finished with their exams by then.

Of course, yes.
You can go ahead and make your registration after the exams.

On the other hand, you would have to wait till after the e-exams which will probably end by November ending/1st week of Dec. Then, leave a gap of one week in-between before paying.

Please,can u give me the link to the draft TT for the e-exam?? Or anyway u can get it across to me,my email is myveryfeyi@gmail.com

I'll forward your e-address to the guy holding d draft TT. He actually checked for a younger brother of mine.
I will advice you to chill for the updated one anyway

Hello guys, please I need you all to come to my aid. solutions/opinions are well needed.

I enrolled into one of the NOUN study centre for my M.Sc. Information Technology around mid August. Somewhere along the line, let's say mid September, I had a huge setback; I lost my mum. I almost lost my mind.

Because of that incident, I was urged to change my environment because truth be told, I almost lost it.
Now, I think I am okay and good to go but the snag here is:

1. i have done all necessary things like paid, registering for courses, registering for exams and the likes.

2. Exams has started and I've missed quite a number.

3. I have not done or submitted any TMA.

Here is where you guys comes in; what can or should I do?

Please your opinions are highly needed.
Thanks.

ps: I had to create another moniker to type this because of my privacy.

My deepest sympathy on the demise of your Mother.
Accept my condolences!

Regarding your questions, my take is, it's practically not possible for you to meet up with the ongoing POP exams considering the fact that:

1) You're yet to do your TMAs.
2) You don't have Course Materials which you can read for your exams.
3) You do not have past questions which you can lay your hands on.
4) Time factor.

In contrast, if you want to risk it and/or give it a try, you still have from now till Sunday to prepare for next week and/or upper week papers. And so also any e-exam you registered for e.g The Good Study Guide and others.

Simply printout your course materials, lay your hands on some past questions, and do your TMAs alongside. You can now postpone those courses you've already missed till next semester.

eginaP:
I noticed that "The Good Study Guide " did not reflect on my exam time table, does it mean that I will not be writing it, or is there anything I need to do separately. This is my first semester in MSc Info. tech.
Secondly, I was on a project for my office and missed one of my exams, please is there away I can prevent this from reflecting as a failed (Carry-over) course on my result while I prepare to write it next semester. Is there anyway one can de-register a course?
Please guys I need your assistance.

The "Good Study Guide" does not reflect on your timetable due to the fact that the course is an e-exam(CBT) and not POP. All you need to do is look out for the e-exam TimeTable(draft TT), which is already out.

Asides, when the time comes, probably next week, the updated/modified e-exam timetable will be loaded to your portal which will reflect all those courses you registered for e-exams.

Secondly, the exam you missed won't reflect on your result in one way or the other, since you didn't write it. You can shift it till next semester. My concern is I don't advice students/my colleagues to postpone course/courses till the following semester due to course overload.

Pls,any acountin student 100level 1st semester wit past 2015 exam question on cit101,sms101,gst101,gst107,eco121,sms105,gst105 shuld add me on whatsapp 08101618227, let's do business kos am statin my exams nex two weeks,so am wetin ..........

You can't get the past questions for all these courses coz they're not POP(Pen on Paper)exams.

You can actually get their TMAs.
However, it's advisable you solve these TMAs on your own.

maximunimpact:
I heard that the credit unit for Bsc students is now 150, if this is true what is d credit unit for direct entry students? any urgent response will be helpful.

Ignore rumour-mongers and chill, Bro.

Minimum of 90 credit units for direct entry students stands!
