i'm laughing right now what if cu was like all these public that have more than 1000 students applying for a course

Gbola5:
And did anyone write statement of purpose. They didnt seem bothered at the interview.

why would they you dont expect them to read more than 2000 letters they just did that to stress us, i actually cramed the stupid letter

Gbola5:
I just hope i get my choice. I really dont want anything else. Its just what i've always wanted to study. I think with the current state of the country we should ve given what we think we'll happy studying, cuz that's where our heart'll be in. I just cant see myself doing my third and fourth choices.

what were your courses

SeunA:
trust me, its CU, they will

if they admit, that means when weac result comes, you know what's next

feran14:


if you name isn't in the first batch.., all is not over... just know that if your name comes out on any other list, the probability of getting your first choice is low

tf, why such bad news

feran14:



Lol I heard that too... I think it happened to the book worm of my set

;Dlmao

feran14:


?why abuja?

well, they are always saying if you get 300 or above in jamb they would take you to jamb office in abuja to write another exam

feran14:
www.jamb.org.ng/unifiedtme1/checkinstitutionstatisitics.aspx

statistics link. for those who couldn't get it.

the degree type is 1st degree. then choose covenant university as the institution

how accurate is this stuff

feran14:


Lol... did u apply?

yes now, now i'm nervous

feran14:


^_^.. nawa for your area o

lol, the score is just too high, guy did you go to abuja as they always said

feran14:



alot of students.. close to a hundred

why must evryone go for accounting

DatguyTim:
301

wow 301, if you were living in my area and they found out you were going to cu with that score they would beat you up

feran14:



jamb and Waec cant really play a role. because alot of people passed jamb this year.. and alot of people are using awaiting results.. besides, cusas is the exam the school set by its self. so it is very important.


and getting your preferred course depends on how many people applied for the course. . and how many people applied for you second and third choices.

take me for example, I chose architecture as my first choice and building as a second choice.
only 50 people out of 300 people who applied for it entered.. obviously, alot of people got higher jamb and cusas scores than I did.? only 3 people applied for building .. so building was the obvious next choice for me.


my friend who chose architecture picked computer science as his second choice. he got higher than me in jamb but had a 24 in cusas.. he got computer science even though about the same number of people applied for computer science.. Which means he got higher scores than those who applied for comp science but nobody in architecture.. besides, about 100 people were admitted for comp science... so it also depends on the space available in the courses u have chosen..

maybe his weac wasnt good, and they were more people than they can accept

lavatoz:

Ok. Seun here told me that my course, microbiology, isn't that competitive. So assuming I got a 40, I might be safe right?

yh

lavatoz:

Wait...so your trying to say is that ppl who get lesser scores than say 40 in the cusas, you might not get your preferred course? What of JAMB and WAEC can't they play a role in keeping you at your preferred course?

they are using all your results not only cusas, and it all comes down to how many people are applying for that course

feran14:


prayy... are u writing neco ?

yea but wrote gce the result was ok, just doing neo cause its compulsory in my school

feran14:


the 215 cutoff mark was from when there was no mass failure in jamb

and you can't write Gce cos you would have been sent out before the results are out.

they are kind of strict tho, pray our weac is good

SeunA:
lol naa....go to babcock university, their accounting students is close to 250, same in reedemers and others...even In BU I know of a chic with 190 that entered medicine...private schools are in deal to make money that's all, if BU could admit 250 students why not CU....Most 100level who don't get their WAEC in CU, are being sent out of the school after resumption, while in Babcock you stay behind and enroll for GCE....CU sef they have too much wahala... One of my friend last year had 227 for accounting, they changed her course to Demography and statistics..why? I feel CU is just Over doing this admission issh!

my friend to last year they gave him demography when he went for accounting, you should also know when a school over stretch it's capacity it would start to diminish, so i think that's what they are trying to avoid, so they wont be too much students and few resources, and also think they want to set their standard high, during that jamb period saw cut off mark for cu was 215 while others where 200 180 was shocked, babcock is much easier to enter even redeemers, and you should know it's prohibited to leave canaanland unless your parents are fully aware so going out for gce exam may not be to easy

SeunA:
chai see life....but why is it so...

it's a private school not public, they cant cater for everyone..

feran14:


had 40 in cusas.... 180 in jamb tho.... about 300 people applied for archi... only about 50 people entered for archi

wow, only 50.. God help us

feran14:


even worse... I applied for archi with my best friend.. I got building, he got comp science...

nawa, was that part of your choice, maybe they were much for the course, was your jamb postume and weac very good

feran14:


trust me, they expected it. And just get ready to enter cu without your friends. Even he you enter together, you would drift apart... Just sayin

we are all going for the same course tho

feran14:

we were not this much last year and i have three friends that didnt even enter at all talkless of getting their second or third choices

i dont think they were expecting us to be this much, you know no one likes private universities, and it's impossible to admitted like 3000 students because the school aint all that big, me i'm praying to God so they can consider me and my friends

Gbola5:
So like what do they do with our Statement of Purposes ? Do they read it ? They didnt collect it at the interview. And I spent time writing it.

lol they would read it i think, lol you actually wrote it yourself

SeunA:
I over heard a staff telling a parent yesterday that admission to your preferred course has 2 do with survival for d fittest. ionno how true this is.....

it means we are much this year and its not everyone that would get their preferred course, some may not even be admitted so you have to do good in everything

lavatoz:

Do u remember the Lit. Questions?
Were the english questions about parts of speech and filling in the blanks with nearest or opposite in meaning? Please, I need help cuz I'm a nervous wreck right now!

sorry its late but the litrature was just the figure of speech

feran14:


Bruh... take it outside.. .. have u watched code geass tho?

the beach is in lagos just searched google and i wrote enugu

Gbola5:
Oh and Kuroma sounds like Japanese, was it in the options, i watch anime. Where you allowed calculators and other utensils.

no enugu, lagos, and two other states from nigeria

easybusy:
not really just like getting to know you questions

they didnt ask anything about bible, except during the interview when they ask you to talk about your spiritual life

SopranoCoder:


thank you so much Nicole.

welcome and for you guys that think that there is particular cut off mark for the cusus there is none, we are too too much this year, so you have to do your best in every thing , that's what one of the cusas official announced to us
