Yes some lecturers made third class in school.....I know like two of them
You're wrong, pure wrong. For lecturing in Nigeria - Second Class Lower is the least. And nowadays, no one will give you lecturing job with second class lower.

Bros, I'm been very respectful when I say this to you. This isn't necessary.

If you have no advice, just keep quiet and maybe...just maybe, you may learn something.

Your first fiurse of study is the most important if you need to lecture in a nigerian university based on NUC regulation. First or 3rd class doesnt really matter as far as you do pgd conversion to MSc.

Everyone has the right to choose his own path in life, as long as it isn't to the detriment of others. He has chosen his own path, why do you criticise him for that?

Really?
Then there's obviously another reason apart from intelligence why they had a third class.
Just like OP, he's intelligent but yet made a third class. Why?

Sometimes, it's the madness that goes on in our universities and not a lack of intelligence on the students part. I have a friend who graduated with a 3rd class in Naija, but currently has a M.Sc and Ph.D from an American University, in the same field of study.

So many factors can lead a student to 3rd class. Economic is 1.

Even if you have a Ph.d? Please cross check your facts. Many private universities in Nigeria, are looking for doctorate degree holders, to be in their faculties. Once you have that Ph.d, they won't stress you, if you had a 3rd class.

Good day all,

Please I need honest advices on my career path. I made a third class in economics and applied for pgd management but got admitted to study marketing after I got the Pgd marketing I moved on to study Msc management which I made 4.0 cgpa.

Now I am about to apply for PhD management. The issue here is that I am confused if I will get a lecturer Job since I made third class and I didn't study a particular course from my bsc to PhD level.

Further more, can I get a scholarship to study for PhD with my degree in any foreign university still admitting? If there is, kindly avail me as the schools I had search have closed admission.
Thanks alot in anticipation to your kind replies.
most of the "old school " lecturers either made a third class.
One ended up writing a chemistry text book use by most Universities back then.

I also have a question to ask, sorry to take the mic from you, seeing that our concerns are related. Perhaps I should share mine too.

Please someone should help me out if you've got an idea.

I studied Law and after graduation, studied Political science for my Master's degree.

I want to Lecture on Political science in a Nigerian university. What is the possibility based on the courses I studied?

Apply you will be considered if you are well wired.

I have seen a professor who graduated with a 3rd class.
Re: I Made A Third Class Now I Have An Msc About To Apply For My Phd by kingi777: 5:40pm On Nov 25, 2019
Your MSc supersedes your 3rd class; then your PhD would be a very big advantage cuz without good MSc you won't even get the admission. Your PhD reduces the competition on the pyramid ladder of life. If you can, please go for your PhD; one day it would pay you in no small measure.

Just type in your Nairaland search bar - - - (General USA students visa Enquiry-Part 15)

It will take you directly there. Ask any questions there am sure they have all the answers to all your questions. They are in the US already.

If you don't have the lecturing job at hand now, i will advise you not to go for a PhD. Also check your age oh because this life is too short to spend it all in school.

does this mean to get a lecturing job is difficult or can you pls say more about your comment.
I also like to be a lecturer,though I'm still an undergraduate,but it seems to me as something difficult to accomplish.

There are many private universities within Nigeria, that are searching for lecturers with Ph.d degrees, to fill various positions in their faculties.

I beg to disagree. There are several PhD holders that are seeking for jobs iin Nigeria. I know a good number of them personally.

I like your story. I'm not a career consultant but I know one, Stella Owaha on Facebook. She knows her onions.
You might think this is a scam but I'd advice you to just search for her on Facebook. She's a travel/career consultant. She should be able to help you.
I have searched the name you mentioned in Facebook but nothing like that. Kindly verify the name again. She may be useful to some of us.

Hello,
My candid advice for you is to stick to marketing in your PhD pursuit because you might have issue when you finally get a lecturing job.
First issue: Departmental politics and sadist: some lecturers will tackle you when you want to contest for any office....
Second issue: your foundation is economics bro management science go show you pepper oo because you didn't have BSc in management science courses..
But you if you can just complete your PhD in marketing surely you will be fine and get you desire lecturing job. Having BSc in Economics, MSc in Marketing and PhD in Management bro makes you look like Jack of all trade ooo Abroad it make work but Nigeria omo our reasoning faculty is faulty since 4BC.
Just go for marketing in your PhD pursuit and believe all well work out for your favour.

Thanks

There are many job opportunities especially in academia. Most Nigerian universities are understaffed. During resource verification/accreditation, you would see many departments borrowing personnel from other places. Don't be discouraged from pursuing your PhD,one day, nature would create your own opening. Remember when preparation meets opportunity, success results.
