I think I need to clear this before someone comes to accuse me of lying. If you take an average of all the GPAs I wrote, it's never going to give you 4.02.

There's a way CGPA's are calculated in uniben which seems different from other schools. Those who attend/attended uniben will understand better.

For those of us who were direct entry students, our 200L result makes up 10 percent of our total CGPA. 300L, 20 percent, 400L, 30 percent and 500L, 40 percent.

How is it calculated for Utme students?

I think it's the same for those who study a four year course. As for those who studied a five year course, I'm not so sure. CSTR and yorex2011 should be able to help.

That's if they still remember cheesy

Yes, I read about Emmanuels interview on nairaland and I only shook my head. If only I had been very serious from the onset. If only you had put in your best like you said, we could have achieved the same.

unfortunately, in my school, we don't write exam with pen. we write via CBT or OMR sheet. and they're all objectives. no theory.
Lecturers are complaining, but our mean rector doesn't care. how do you expect students in Architecture department and school of engineering to answer OBJ? no drawing, no writting.
my school is f*cked up.

lol.
This thread reminds me of my UNIBEN days.
Everybody in uniben knows the department of ELECT/ELECT ENGR is the most 'lenient' in Uniben's faculty of engineering.
Unlike other departments,
they churn out atleast 10 first class' on the average every year.
Your story is not really improbable .
The department of chemical engineering on the other hand is a different matter.
It would take a miracle for such turn-around to happen there.
Infact, if you were not already on 4.0 GPA in your 100/200 , then you are screwed.
The sadistic ,overzealous and megalomaniacal lecturers there will run you ragged.
By the time i will graduate with a CGPA of 4.80 in chemical engineering, the doctors at health center had to recommend me for psychiatric analysis at USELU hospital.
It was a satisfying educational experience though.


U meant u graduated with a CGPA of 4.80?

Borrow courses and make A's in them. That way, no harm done, if you pass very well in your penultimate and final year, you would bag a first class degree, and if you don't make A's in those courses, you still have your 2:1.

Sorry about that. You shouldn't have done the exam, all you had to do was obtain a Doctor report stating you had health issues during the exam, hence your absence at the exam venue, that way the course unit would not be added to your TNU and no adverse effect on your GP.
