so he spent 5yrs in sec school??

kvngjesse:
I completed by sec sch when i was 13. I guess am the youngest here self..

Emmaesty:
13 years old in 100l is not possible. when did he finish secondary school? 12? That means he entered secondary school at the age of 6 At what age did he start nursery school then.

MsNas:

Suffer later? Well, it depends on the child. I got into high school aged 8, graduated high school aged 14, went to Uni at 15 cos I had to wait to write JAMB, and also got my masters as well. I didn't suffer.

The only side effect was that a lot of my mates in secondary schools who knew my age bullied me as in Junior Secondary. But I got wiser and it stopped in Senior Secondary. So it all depends on the child. Some can handle it, so cannot.

I don't really support it though, cos not all kids can handle it like I do. I won't allow any of my kids to skip grades crazily, like I did.

tennyson10:
. Who told you the result isn't usable that same year. After I got my result in ss2 @13,I still had to complete my second school nd I was still d youngest graduant in my set. Even though I had to take a break after then and later balanced with the normal entry age,my sister didn't and she would be graduated from the university at 18,and now she's doing very fine. .now tell me what you mean by suffering,except if you think age is a function of general intelligence.

tennyson10:
possibly, there are a lot of kids like that who wrote their waec in ss2 and go straight to uni.

angiography:

so he left primary school @8yrs
entered sec school and wrote WAEC at age 13 in sec school(coz if it were to be external exams, the result won't be usable that same year)
...and got admission that same year of 13


he will suffer later....coz he's bypassing a crucial phase of life....

A boy won a game at a birthday party I attended with my kids yesterday and was asked his name, age and class.

He said he is 9yrs old and in JSS 2. We were surprised. In the course of trying to get him to answer some questions relating to his school his brother came out. Guesd what? He is 10 years and in JSS 3.

They both have the same trend. How did they get there? Wait ooh, they will complete their secondary education by 13 years. What of the minimum entry age into university of 16yrs? What of psychological developments?

What is your take on this? Before now I thought that my 12yrs old child in SS1 is too fast and my husband thought of steeping her down last two years until I met those kids.

ITbomb:
Minimum age to finish sec school should be 16 no matter how brilliant you are.
If the kids ever goes into federal Universities, they will have psychological issues when mixing with older, bolder, more intimidating peer group.

Best for these set is to push them into the private University where they will still be in controlled territory and focus on their academics though these set can never compete in the real world with the ones who have passed through the necessary levels of human physiological development

Rajosh:

In this days where companies want 21year old graduate with 5years experience. Its not too early.

Gone were the days of minimum age. As long as the parents are up and doing in their tasks as parents. It will take a lot of monitoring and guidance from the parent of the child.

If they are able to enter University(especially a private) they get to have a second degree or early masters.

mikedimeji:
I know someone who became a Medical Doctor at age 18.
Also as at 2008 I saw a girl who was 11 years old in SS1 as at 2008 oo, so am looking forward to seeing 15years children that are graduates already.
