I Feel Bad That I Can't Make A First Class..it Really Hurts by TheGenius001: 9:55pm On Jan 04, 2019 |
Sorry about posting this in the weong section. Hi nairalanders...I'm a 500 level student of a very prestigious federal University in the eastern part of the country.. Currently I possess a strong 2.1 which is actually the highest in my department. This grade makes me their best student as it stands,and by God's grace I will likely emerge as the best graduating student of the department. But the problem here is that I am not in any way happy with myself considering the fact that I won't make a first class.It really hurts badly whenever I think about it. Come to think of it,I was the top student in my secondary school(a government school).I attended almost all the competitions (cowbell, Maths Olympiad,Stan exam,Man exam,NNPC and other local competitions).I was awarded a merit award at a point in time by the state government.I came out top on merit list with the highest cutoff mark in my department.Graduating with a first class could have been the best way to crown all of this achievements. And the simplest reason why I failed on that quest of making a first-class started right from my first year in school down to my fourth year(first semester)..I realised in my fourth year( second semester )that I have been making errors in my answer sheets when it comes to school courses. For instance,I could give answers to about two or three questions on a section that should only have one answer(specifically for one lecturer to mark and record the score).In essence,I will end up answering all questions in just two or three pages(and this is very wrong). The consequence is that the different lecturers that are to mark my script will surely find it difficult and frustrating to mark and record my answer script fairly. Secondly,I don't specify the Question numbers I answered. For instance,there's usually a column(in the front page of the answer booklet) where the student writes out the question numbers he gave answers to.So you're expected to write out the question numbers you gave answers to before submitting your answer booklet.You will make it easy for the lecturers to mark your script. Those are just the two costly mistakes I made as student asides the fact that I started out poorly tho in my first year (2.1 CGPA in my first year).It was during my 400 level second semester I thought about my predicament. I found out that I usually have all A's in my departmentals(few answer booklets to mark by the lecturers involved in those courses offered in my department).But the school courses/faculty courses usually comes with B OR C and sometimes D(This is because there are about thousands of script to be marked by a lecturer, So that particular lecturer will surely find my script so annoying and frustrating). Alas,this realisation came in a sad note. Mind you I got the conviction about the errors I made after speaking with my class adviser.He told me I had all A's I.e 5.0 in my last semester's result.(This sentences added here are modified) I feel so bad about the fact that I will tell someone that I am the best graduating student but not with a first class grade.It really hurt me deeply. You may want to know my CGPA but believe me there's no gain saying it cos there is no miracle that can take it to first-class. To the freshmen out there,make sure to learn from my mistake. I feel like pouring out my heart cos I feel frustrated each time I think of it. To any graduate out there who is in this shoe am about to be in,should please tell me how it feels to be the best graduating student but not with a first-class?? 3 Likes |

Lol dude you're very very funny walahi The two errors you pointed our are so lame and pointless Which lecturer have the time to be deducting marks for not writing answered questions' number on the cover page ? You probably answers questions off point if you first errors is true but then I doubt you closeness to first class if you're having Es, Ds and Cs grades 7 Likes |

kazyhm: Thanks for your observation. I never mentioned that a lecturer deducts mark for not writing the answered questions' number on the cover page.Not indicating such makes it more chaotic for a lecturer who is handling so many scripts (like a thousand or more).The lecturer briefly goes through the column to find out if the student actually attempted his own question.If so,he quickly opens to the page in which the student gave answer to his question easily and give his mark and record. If reverse is the case,the lecturer may not have all the time in the world to start looking for the particular page in which you answered his question.. By so doing,he may likely skip your script and pass the script to another lecturer. He may find it difficult to also mark your answer when you answered his own question and another lecturer's question on just one page. Mind you on few occasions have I had the D's.(like one or two in the school courses and it really pulled my GP) I also have never had an E or an F. |

TheGenius001: OK. And no provision for calling for remark in your school if you think you're underscored in a case a lecturer skip your answers ? Your GP not CGPA |

First class my brother IMO is really overrated, I myself would probably be one (was to do defence before strike started). Everyone expects a lot from you unlike a 2.1 graduate. Now couple that with the fact that you're the best graduating student of your department in a fed university, a document you can proudly attach to your CV is also a game changer. As a first-class graduate someone's best would be considered as your starting point but you with that 2.1 would not be stereotyped and would have an opportunity to actually wow them, besides here in Nigeria first class is only a test of our memory and not what we can actually offer on ground. 3 Likes |

TheGenius001:Sorry dear, I understand how you feel. It's lack of information, you never had team work. Team work oriented directs alot, it helps. But you didn't care to know from even the least person in your class and you were full of yourself. In my 400level, the totality of my gp was 4.45, I needed the first class badly too, I sort for informations and it helped me coupled with prayers in 500level. God answered. So, lemme ask You, are you guys done with your exams? 1 Like |

Paxie55: I have always been humble when it comes to studies.I learn even from the least person in class.And they are so amazing. I always have one or two things to learn from them..I'm not full of myself like you said. They make me conduct TUTORIALS for them,and I selflessly do it; not because I'm full of myself but because I want to be of help the best way I can and I stand to gain a lot too. We're done with our exams.Thanks |

Well, bro think about those that made it but are not more on earth. Makes me remember a scenario of the best graduating student of electrical engineering that pass a way few days to graduation. The school didn’t even give a one minute silence for her on the convation day. We just bother ourselves with things that don’t matter. I hope life is fair to you in days to come bro. 3 Likes |
