Glorified secondary schools and degree mills every where in Nigeria with so many first class yet it does not reflect in our scientific and technology breakthrough Nigeria still import every item even matches, pencils into this country.

Proud ex City boy, i have been lucky to attend both public and a private schools and I understand the envy of our brothers from 20k schools. The truth is lead city gives you access to a lot of textbooks and learning material which are still useful to me years after graduation. And most of the best lectures in public institutions come to lecture in private university (and they dear not behave recklessly with students as it is obtained in government schools). Another major difference is the quality control department, that monitors the standards of education and teaching services in private schools to give you your money worth of values

Those first class students are third class students in udus

Loose grading system. How many can make first class on a 5point grading system?

I don't trust results from private schools and universities in Nigeria. The lecturers tend to award undeserving grades to their students so as to promote the school's image. They are more like 'special centres'.

Put these so called first class graduates in a competition with their peers from government universities and they can't defend themselves.

It's a lie,that your logic is wrong, you don't get first class by runs, you've got to be brilliant and intelligent, getting a first class is not a fluke, you earn it.

lonelydora:
They should come and try it in a Federal University.

First Class in a Private University is equivalent to 2.2 in a State University and 3rd class in a Federal University

asuustrike1:


is it your Uniben or UI or Uniport that reduces student's score or mark that is better?. In the course of touring different states, I overhead some students complaining bitterly that the department of English and Linguistic University vow to reduce first class meant for some students. To worsen matters, the department told them that they will start reducing their marks from 200 level to final years so as not to produce any first class.

DamZik:
Frustrating students as obtainable in public schools in Nigeria does not equate academic standard at all. The system (Lecturers, infrastructure, etc) in private schools is friendly and easy. And that's what makes the difference. Having tasted the two, I will always prefer private over public.

EternalTruth:
this is so true of uniben my sister's cgpa was 4.67 but UNIBEN reduced and slashed it to 4.1. she had no choice sha.
I'm studying library and information science in UNIBEN too and it's been more Than a decade of years ever since the faculty of education graduated first class students and thy have vowed to keep on slashing our results.
I want to change to UI but they told me UI isn't any better
