U are quite right but this happens 1 in every 50.D fact is high GPA makes one be at an advantage of getting jobs dat will enable one to get capital for business. People with poor grades who eventually succeed are those with strong determination, connection or from rich family. There are many frusrtrated graduates with no hope because of poor grades. U go at least get hope if u get good grade. Nothwithstanding, there are some examples of successful people with poor grades, but if u think u wanna have poor grades and be successful lik dem u need to ask urself these questions;
1)do u av d same level of agression and determination?
2)will u av d same kind of support they must av had?
3)do u av d same kind of connection?
Many of u are quick to mention bill gates, d man didnt av grades but he didnt joke with learning. He read and learnt alot. Dats d secret-learning.

Well After all my readings, night class, burnt candles i manage to garner a cgpa of 3.51 then my happiness of making second class upper was cut short when i saw my cgpa as compiled by my department as 3.41, All avenues to correct it was negative, i have to accept the cgpa.

Most of the girls that wrote from me, made 2.1, even those i taught in my class. I strongly want cgpa to be scrapped cos i cant believe that a brainy dude like me having 3.41 will be placed on same class of degree with corky guys that do not attend lectures but rely on expo to make 2.51.

Ok...I learnt from a very reliable source recently that even companies (probably owned by entrepreneurs) use profile of their staff (possibly including the first class guys) to improve their company's image. My point = we live in a world where symbiosis is indispensable. So, without the 'brainies', businesses of the not too brilliant but excellent biz people may not do well.

Just to add, we had a similar discussion to this thread's topic in a group not too long ago and a comment made by a guy who I had just became friends with really registered in my 'hard drive'. He said "it's not really about getting the high GPA that matters afterall, but who we become in the process". That 'who we become in the process', I believe describes determination & adaptation to new systems etc. These, I believe are indispensable 'raw materials' to help make a biz succeed. *anything worth doing at all, is worth doing well*

Lets be realistic here...

Please read what he posted again and be faithfully tell if theres any pinch of lie in it....

Those people he listed are people most of us pray to be as rich as... yet they didnt have a First Class... Sometimes i pray, if not having a first class makes one that rich and famous, then i will never make a First Class.

The fact is... if you're striving for a First Class or High GPA, you would be actually aiming to work in one of the big companies in the world.

That CGPA, you dont need it if you're gonna be a determined entrepreneur. If you really are, you would make one of those Big companies the First Class holders strive to work with!

#Or dont you wish to work with Microsoft? ot Dangote? whos founder didnt make a First Class.

You cannot have a 3.51 CGPA and somebody tells you that your CGPA is 3.41 and just accept it though you said all avenues to correct them prove abortive. Dont you have evidence to support your claims? Don't you have all your all the records of your result from your 100 level to your final year. If you do then nobody should deny you your result. You could even apply to exam s and records unit to make the necessary corrections.

La cram, la puor

cover to cover

And get your A(s)

Nobody will ask you to define anything when looking for job.






The above advice is for the DULL Ones.






Read, understand and practice what you are taught, good result will surely follow. Unless super eagles(witchcraft) are after you.

In future, you never know who your boss will be.

It might be Yourself or Someone else.
