So this all started when i entered the university in fact i'm now in my finals but as it is now i'm laying on my bed facing the ceiling and we have a test going on in class, i have missed about 3 tests since this semester started but i don't seem to feel alarmed by that, i'll probably have an extra year too the way i'm going but i can't just push myself to get up and read and to wash my uniform being a law student.

Now i feel this is partially because of the fact that i have come to believe school is not for me...i have never been a bright student right from primary school...when i entered the uni as a freshman i had the dreams every fresher had which is to come out with a first class and i worked very hard for it, went for night class every day without sleeping even for a minute, but any time grades came out i always come out at the bottom of the food chain.

I have tried hard to demystify the exact cause of my failure in academics but found no answers, could it be my hand writing, or i don't understand what i read or i'm not good in cramming textbook case laws and sections, or could it be because my brain is just not acclimatized to school and the rigours that come with it.

I have put in effort to handle all these supposed problems but none if them have come to fruition, even to the point that i bought a handwriting book to help improve my handwriting ...yeah i was that desperate



Reality dawned on me tho when my year 2 and 3 results were nothing to write home about...then i started losing interest...hardly go to class even though there is a test...i always say to myself stupidity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results so if i can read and study so much without being able to secure even a C in my courses then i'd rather not try.

Its funny tho that in my year 4 i made more than half a million rendering freelance services to people online...this also fueled my loss of interest in school, I'd rather be committed to something that pays me. I feel bad for mum tho, she put in all this effort to make me learned and give me a good future and she has already started saving for my law school but i know deep down that i am a nut case and can't ever compete with my peers academically.

I have tried my best in fact i'm crying right now, school has always made me feel like a lesser human, i always come out last...i really don't know what to do with life anymore ...i mean why is life so partial and unfair, why can't i be like those bright students...

I brought this here because i believe my Nairaland family will help me get through this terrible faze of my life.

I'll really appreciate if more people get to see this

Thank you

Na your hand writing Bros....hin too bad

Acidosis:
How did you gain admission to study law? Let me guess, your parents "encouraged" you knowing very well you don't have the credentials and potential for the programme?

Truth is there are no dull people, only individuals who failed to identify their areas of strength. Your problem started when someone decided to pay your way into law programme.

I think you've gone too far to withdraw from school so strive harder and complete your studies. On completion, you can build a new path by first learning to discover yourself, who you are, and what you're good at.

All the best sir

This is very intelligent question. It means Nigeria sucks up to academia.

Karma of laziness is worse than laziness itself

Discard school.

Pursue your goal. It's more about the money at the end of the day.

You’re already deep in,the truth is your grades won’t get better from the look of things all you need do is to weather the storm and get the certificate then keep it and focus on your hustle,you’re not alone bro,many of us go to school just because we want to be called educated not necessarily because we give a fvck about the A4 paper .

BathingSoap:
Actually i like Law and i don't want to blame my failure on Nigeria's educational system...i have always believed the problem is from me ...my brain just can't take a course like law, i guess you can't always get what you wish for.

This academic failure has been with me right from my primary school days

You've not answered his questions...
You deserve the grades you're getting...

Thank you

Big mistake man..i was in your shoes a long time ago. Almost quit too. Finish it man, especially since you are in your finals. Dont be stupid. Finish the damn journey you started.
Be wise man.

My guy in a simple sentence you are so unserious
So what do u intend to do? Which talent do you have?

Don't be deceived school no be scam Education is a big platform to big opportunities.

Maybe u wan be Naira Marley apprentice

Oga dont be stupid
Yes i said so
U are reading a very good course in skul so dont throw it all away
Unless u are hiding sumtin from us law like medicine gives u an edge in the society
Edge being compared to other courses u have employment
Stop listening to all this nonsense like university na wash
Read and proceed to law skul
Meanwhile wia is sarrki

You no know book how you come enter school dey study law you didn't tell us your in a private uni. Bro brace up you are brilliant your freelancing shows it try to pray always. Don't ever give up your schooling why not during 100l or 200l why now. Forget the saying las las school na scam cuz you've come this far you shouldn't quit. Who knows you'll become a great lawyer.

people think education means grades



you're just a lazy person with no motivation

if you're like this, how you go be when time for masters and professional certs

you better finish the bsc you started and fck out the school

School is for everyone. Gethe the knowledge and figure if to use it for yourself or to serve others.

If you can try to find extra motivation, complete your study. Just to make your mum happy. Don't worry about the grades. Find two good guys in your class that could motivate you and help with some assignments. Appreciate those guys once in a while by giving them gifts. To be honest, your parents are just typical Nigerian Parents. They won't understand why you needed to drop out.

Some guys are just not made for a structured academic system; go to class, write exams, etc. Like myself, I performed better when I am not under pressure of any exams or tests. I enjoy the pressure I put on myself.

You are going to be fine and you need to make yourself proud. Keep improving your skills. Whatever service you are offering in your freelance job could be your future profession.

When village people hack your PIN code.
A Law Student that ENTERED University.
Can't even punctuate, " i ". One doesn't need to know you are a bench warmer and you have got bad grades, how come you just discovered now?

Please pray dear and see the Ben Carson movie, 'gifted hands' u will know u ain't dull... Even the bright students experience reading fluctuations too.. But doggedness makes them scale through and prayers.
If u can recite D names of the football club players u are supporting, it means u are not dull.. U only need to channel your passion back to your academics. Cos it's d yardstick 4 measuring an average youth in Nigeria. After which u can develop your skill. And remember your mom's efforts... How would u feel if u were her and your child was you..
Pray, read your psalms, 51, 35, 121.. God bless you, shalom

Stalemate:
I was once in your shoes just that the difference is/was that, the acknowledgment of my brilliance and intelligence weren't just reflecting as I wanted in my grades (I wasn't having As). In fact, I set some records in my department but may not be recognized though. I led my department to finish first runner up in a national debate where we lost to an old rival, U.I and also set up a platform in my department that got me recognition from top professors in my department. To tell people (my friends and classmates) that I graduated with 3.44 CGPA, they all don't believe.

One thing for sure, I made sure I continue pursuing the very best of whatever I laid my hands on (my undergraduate programme inclusive) and today, I'm reaping the benefits of not giving up. I'll advice you complete your study with genuine commitment. You won't regret you did because, that degree will give you opportunities that only your innate strength can help you retain. I hope you understand my point?.

By the way, I'd like to get to know you more for further advices to spur you up.


I'd send a PM right away.

Na 3.47 I graduated with. I was depressed for months.

lol no tell me say na acu u dey lol

Bruh, try very hard to finish your 1st degree, even if it's a 2-2. If not for any reason, you are not a quitter! Your kids will ask you that.
Good luck bruh!

Nobody can advise you on what to do or the things you shouldn't do but bear in mind that getting education is key even if you won't use your certificate. Having said that, i want to bring to your notice that to excel in school is not all about studying hard or keeping late nights, sometimes, it is systemic and i'll give you an example.

There are courses that by attending classes you already know the areas where the lecturer loves and may likely bring out questions from. There are lecturers who looks out for answers the same way they have written it out for you in your notes. There are those who will not spoon feed you and are happy anytime you show them how vast you are and how clear you make your point. All these are the things you should look out for. Pay attention to the way you answer question etc etc. I am not saying this is why you are failing, i am simply saying work hard and work smart.

lastly, i will not dwell on what your mom expects from you and what you expect from yourself but know that your own future is in your hands and nobody will make it bright or bleak except you. I will like to recommend a book titled TALENT IS OVERRATED for you. Read it, maybe your eyes will open.

All the best.

Sorry man, just try to brace up, you at the final lap already, you shouldn’t give up, if it’s like this now, what if you get a spill as you mentioned ? How will you deal with it ? Just do your best and take your gentleman grade and you can continue your freelance after school there’s a whole lot of time.

What online stuff are you into that makes as much, please fill in your brother, I can sense you are a very smart guy in the wrong field.
