John Hopkins is an ivy league school.

Are you Igbo?

cassidy1996:
what's special about this ivy league?

OfoIgbo:
He should have applied to MIT and Harvard university. As far as I am concerned, the two most prestigious higher institutions of learning in the US. And he may have gotten them

Those schools are fast turning to liberal indoctrination centers that no longer tolerate debates and diverse opinions.

He knows exactly what he is looking for. His options are the schools he applied to and they are the best for him.

True but we should encourage good behaviour especially when most are doing the opposite, it's our only chance of getting out of the rot called Nigeria
. Brain dead people don't solve problems.

That is, if you read a humanities based course, not a hard science course..where apart from evolution, you won't get much fighting over the cuture wars.

Our guy is reading biology.

I knew he won't be an aboki �

He is going to have plenty problems defining gender. The liberals have lunch a full scale war on biology already.

Igbo is been legalized in many countries, that wouldn't be case if the adversed effect is more severe as you claim; don't judge something you don't understand.

Alcohol and cigarette is worst, but do you know why the media is always stuffing it down your throat? Just good PR and creative marketing.

Tackle the issue from the root, there are many good graduate wasting away and there are entrepreneur with ideas is getting funding easy?

Not downplaying his win, but believe most people would also great if given all the resources and support.

There is no iota of equal opportunity in this country, allow everybody to move on their pace.

Congrats baby

Queenlovely:
most Nairaland member will only see the pimple face and not the brilliant brain

nobody have talked about that so far, you are the only nlder that saw the pimple face, so calm down

Amotolongbo:
If my child is interested in Medicine, I will prefer John Hopkins, not even Ivy League

.....this school you just mentioned reminds so much about Ben Carson.

Igbo is being legalised is a simplistic view.

They have put checks and controls in place to ensure it doesn't become a problem.

Moreover the legality of Igbo is more centered around prescription, drug manufacture plus they also have medi care to monitor..

Does Nigeria have all these things?


You say Nigerian graduates are wasting away, im i not a Nigerian?

There's no way you can be academically brilliant and be stuck in Nigeria, because the world needs smart people.

Moreso, in today's world degrees are not the be all, Elon musk recently tweeted that he is looking for brilliant mind's and degree's don't matter ..


What's my point, the world rewards brainy people, brains rule the world. Smart or academically sound, either will do, but there's not much use for a drug abuser or prostitutes when it comes to building.

OfoIgbo:
Of course they are all good.

It's just that I feel he could also get into MIT and Harvard, with his pedigree.

If I were him or his parents, I will make an attempt at upgrading to Harvard.

You'd be shocked if I told you those are not the best universities in the world. They only hype and promote themselves to be up the rankings.

The American Educational system would take years to get to where the EU system is. Americans would tell you the same.

For research, google "country with the best educational system in the world".

US and England have always been about hype.

That's why foreigners continue to score the highest in all their universities, above Americans themselves. Does not happen that often in the EU.

Ask around

Amotolongbo:
Na you add Johns Hopkins to the Ivy League?


https://youthincmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/Ivy-Leagues.jpg

Duke, Stanford, M.I.T., and Caltech — schools that are not technically Ivy League schools, but tend to enjoy a similar reputation and social status

Congrats to David and his entire family.
Wishing him all the best.
This is the kind of news I like reading which is a source of inspiration to other kids.

congratulations boy, u can't hear such good news concerning the fulanis. blood thirsty idiots

Congratulations

John Hopkins may not be one of the ivy league school but it is one of the best in USA

Ivy league is a trademark. It comprises 8 universities.

There are other universities that can be argued to be as good or better that the Ivy league schools. Unfortunately that does not make them part of the "Ivy league" but they can be referred to as prestigious schools.

MIT, Stanford and John Hopkins are prestigious schools.

Wait, MIT and Stanford are not among Ivy league schools? Wonderful.

You are right but they are often mistaken for Ivy league because of their high rankings

Read outlier by Malcolm Gladwell and you won't be making this simplistic view of the world and for Nigeria for that matter.

Bros Nigerians are trying their best out there, but when such opportunity is not readily available and accessible for the vast majority of graduate, it is something you should look into.

Even on nairaland the results are there bro.


Stupid topics make front page and that's where most of the stupid folks are , the sex obssesed Igbo smokers.

Go to the investment and travel section, there are people there that never comment on the front page threads that are making moves with several testimonies.

What does this tell us? Smart people know where to seek the knowledge & whom to associate with to leapfrog themselves out of any bottlenecks .

Useless Igbo smokers add no value to themselves or society at large, even worse when their entire life is centred around weed and sex ,you should know they've failed.

Examine nairaland as your case study.
