I'm looking forward to seeing how FUNAAB will defy Jamb directive.

kinda speechless!

Dankylove: Conclusively,issue concerning Grouping might be true,though yet to Confirm.
Grade grouping or not,God factor sure Pass

Of course, I expect you to say that! Everyone who lives today ought to have known that it's not by his/her power but by GOD'S grace. Man will fail if God is not by his side!

Fortunately, God makes us to understand that man should labour and seek for knowledge. One can't sit inside the corner of his room; ignore the purchase of DE form and expect DE admission.

Why am making these enquiries is that tomorrow; my younger ones may need my wealth of experience on admission matters.

Besides, many lost admission last year because of inadequate information about transcript request from FUNAAB. Even in 2009, the same thing happened to a close senior of mine. Many lost and waste their money because of wrong O'LEVEL and JAMB combinations. What more can I say?

Surprisingly, a guy on Nairaland obtained 2DE forms and one UTME form into three different institutions and gained admission from the 3 institutions. Actually, God is on his side and also; he has wealth of experience. Many said he was lying that how could that be possible but he stated his name for them to verify.

When I verified, I noticed that he applied for less competitive course in 2 schools and a highly competitive course in the third. Before he got the admission; he was full of confidence, he was able to make a close to 1 probability. Not because he has a very high performance in his certificate but because of a WELL CALCULATED RISK. What more can I say to convince you Prof?

Walexz02: By my own little understanding of that list, I guess the grouping is done by the committee responsible for the screening. This may be done may be to reduce congestion at the centre where the screening would take place. Remember, though the screening will be done the same day but it definitely won't be the same time thus the grouping... my own thought

Yeah, my brother! That was what I thought initially; but one of the CHM students on that list told me that it was meant for class of grade. A-Distinction and B-Upper Credit.

So, I was wondering how could FUNAAB alone have that many A applicants as if there were no other schs.

Besides, I went ahead to make further verification and found out that the applicant that had the highest direct entry point in FUNAAB last year was under GROUP B; perhaps, this helps a bit in disproving my frd's claim.

But the ambiguous term; is what constitute DIRECT ENTRY POINT? Could it be the candidate's CGPA or combination of CGPA and O'LEVEL points? The guy had 84.83; is that even up to Distinction in some schs? My sch uses 90.00!

Codedboy95: yea daht if the strike takes to lonq.. Buh as it is now the strike iz still fresh

For your mind!

Don't you think that FUNAAB Management and FUNAAB ASUU CHAPTER may compromise to release admission list at any point in time? Just like the way it happens in some other institutions!

Dankylove: Prof rkarang,do u mean Grade Grouping,Batch grouping(as experienced last yr screening) or which?

Dankylove: No wonder this year's Admission Proceeding is Too Dilatory

Prof Dan, what do you know about DE GROUPING by FUNAAB? As in Group A and B?

Dankylove: @rkarang...my Humble learned Colleague & Prof i just dey.
Funaab has made me to stop English for Pidgin
yes o,i strongly adhere to ur Perceptions but is not everybody that is Financially capable.
if it happens to a financial deficient person,he/she wil just continue with HND/100 LEVEL Since he/she is financially Handicap to Process a Better Alternative when given Admission...
Bros do u have any Insider in Admission office that cud Toss some vital info abt the merit list?

No! All I care to know is that FUNAAB'S Senate and Admission Committee should please approve and order for immediate release of 2013/2014 admission list. At least, one will have rest of mind!

Dankylove: from Latin to Pidgin!
This one wey funaab dey dull herself lik say the food stil Hot to swallow,make them better paste the list for der own good or else Thunder go takeova d strike.

Hey Prof, even to FUNAAB alone; a friend of mine paid acceptance twice. You wanna ask why? He applied for both UTME and DE to FUNAAB; unfortunately, he got an alert to pay acceptance for UTME admission within few days (he immediately followed the directive). Then, after two days; he got another alert for DE and he paid for that also. He even told me that he wasn't the only one in that shoe.

That's the sacrifice people make for the course or struggle they believe in.

What about those who had already started their HND program that had to leave for BSC program? After all, many still apply for BSC program after finishing their HND course; while some quit their BSC program for travel purpose. The rationale behind all these is that people have reason(s) for doing certain thing.

How have u been prof?

khennnie: Thank you soo much, I appreciate dat. Av not been admitted yet but i knw i will av course 2 rejoice wen d 2nd list is out IJN.Amen

May the Lord grant your wishes!

samech17: when it move...... i'm mechanical aspirant bt d.e sha.

ikeola6: But Sir Dankylove the FG wants schs to generate allowances frm IGR,then there will be a hike in tuition. Thats why the strike is on even though Fg is tryin to paint ASUU in a bad image they r also bent on makin the child of the common man stop schooling..

That's a reasonable and logical post my dear brother!

Today, many companies have folded up because of inefficiency and inadequacy in our POWER SECTOR. Businessmen are suffering everyday but the electricity workers are less worried because they don't compete with foreign counterparts. ASUU members are worried because they compete with their foreign counterparts.

You and I know that our government is not sincere to the public. My dear Prof Dan, the fact that you and I are affected, the fact that we bear the consequence of being neglected at home, the fact that we all feel the pain doesn't mean that we should be subjective, biased or injudicious in assessing or making comment about this worrisome ASUU strike.

May the Lord have mercy on us.

ASUU has no blame for this prolong strike; we should rather put the blame on the Federal Government for not being sincere and for turning deaf ears to the demands of our intellectuals.

Could it be that ASUU is selfish? If I were in members' of ASUU situation, I would have also asked for a good working condition; after all, they have families to take care of. The beauty of working is to work under a satisfactory working condition.

Besides, workers in US, UK, Botswana, Mauritius, Sychelles etc work under a highly satisfactory environments than what we experience here. It is the responsibility of GOVT to adress the demand of aggrieved workers but our own Govt is exhibiting a nonchalant attitude to workers demand.

What happens to the students? It's quite unfortunate that students are being deprived of their right to quality and sound education in Nigeria. FG is supposed to be held responsible for this; because if there's effective and efficient control of workers by GOVT, there wouldn't have been any strike at all (this implies that even if the workers' demands are excessive there would have been a law that would stop them from doing that).

Furthermore, this so called Govt has been saying that most graduates here are unemployable; yet the Govt is not ready to address the issue.

From the foregoing, it can be said that the Govt is guilty of all these wrongs just as it refuses to provide job opportunities for classes of graduates.

I'm just hoping that one day; our Govt will wake up, listen and obey public opinion.

It seems FUNAAB doesn't understand the psychological effect of what it's doing.

Now, I'm beginning to question FUNAAB October Rush post?

Walexz02: guess I shouldn't be left out ..... am not just happy with the situation of things in this country., happy independent day sha

Yeah my dear brother jawe........ruefully laughing! Indeed, independence day

It's a pity giant of africa dat u lack leaders with vision,
u r a consumin nation, u refuse to luk inward, u tap
policies frm occidental world witout understandin nd
apreciatin ur socio cultural values which is d feotus of
development .... Anyway api independence

Dankylove: u Try but i wasnt expecting a Phrase but Wording
permit me to give u Expo;
my heart is Beating
My hands are shaky
My Lips Are Fluctuating
My Mouth is Lip-sync
My Tongue is Wagging
rkarang..Ur POST IS 100% FACT,Funaab shud quit the Suspense

Trust me, FUNAAB gotta no choice! Last week, the sch admin wrote on her community site that the list would be out last week but it was unfortunate that it wasn't released.

I spoke wt Ayodabo (SUG SEC) but his response was that ICTREC was waiting for green light.

The suspense is becoming unbearable for me. That sch is my only plan, I understand that it's too risky but I just wanna bear it. The other plan I had then, the f**king ASUU strike shattered it.

Now I'm looking forward to getting God's mercy!

FUNAAB has this week and next week to release its admission list or risk defying JAMB's directive. Cos I wonder how the sch's 2nd and other batch will reach Jamb office before the deadline.

The sch had already got the chance to comply but now, the chance dwindles as NASU and most importantly SSANU are threatening to go on strike. Except if there are factions in FUNAAB'S chapter.

Despite the fact that the sch wrote OCTOBER RUSH on her website, applicants are still damn HOPING to see the list, nawa ooo.

I don de hope sote hope come de tire me

[quote author=Boll2010][/quote]Trust me dude! The sch is only waiting for green light.

Air out your grievances but in a less provocative manner. Forgive and forget now, so as to carry on!

Esprit de corps!

May the Lord shepherd us to FUNAAB admission list road!

OmolaraParis: Xcuse me?? I'l pardon ur ignorance abt my focus alrt? By God, I'm a bonafide student of ds great institutn, Linguistics major, ENG minor, 101 and 102 respectively, last smester per say, we wer in2 ds drama and Mrs Tale Olujide practically told us in class dat it is wrng 2 use ds "am" , dosnt mak any sense wotsoeva xcept u'r tryin 2b informal ( letter writting 2 close associates or speakin amng peers) wic does not even speak wel of u as an undaG, i kw it, as in, i kw it vry WELL, dats y i tackled dat statement..
I used to say; "am" 2 b4 ok? but i learnt alot of new stufs abt ENG wen i got 2 campus and attended classes in due tyms.
Jez calm down wen u'r nt sure of sm tyns nxt tym ok?
Minwhl, i wudnt neglect ur point cuz it has gaind grnd sort of, howeva, i'm nt particular abt d statement for real, am particular abt d word, "AM", u dnt stay/write "am dancing", u eida say, i'm dancing or i am dancing.
My point 2 dat guy wic u totaly faild 2 observe is: "learn 2 tak ya eyes off pipu's mistak cuz nobdy is a monopoly of knowlegde.
Cheers!

I'm not here to insult ur lecturer cos u might probably got him wrong in class. But I must tell u that the essence of being a university student is to go beyond what u're being taught in class.

The difference btw ordinary and extraordinary is the prefix "extra". Don't be a lazy student!

It's wrong to start a statement with "am" but it's right to start a question with "am". For instance, am I wrong? Am I disturbing you? etc.

I'm not an English or Linguistic student oooooooooooooooooo

@Fynestboi, your attention is needed here please!

@Mabadeje, it's being a while now, hope u're being good?

HABRUZZY: hi fellow aspirants hw are yu all doing

Yeah, my dear potential course-mate, am being good! How abt u?

Conflict is inevitable even in a well formally organized organization. But it can be well managed. Management of conflict cannot be over-emphasized.

This particular thread is very much invaluable to prospective applicants, it's quite informative and educative. It gives one the opportunity to express different issues that are worrisome to oneself.

Here, many questions are raised, thereby creating knowledge cos question and not answer creates knowledge.

To be concise, admission requirements, procedure and chances of being successful are the MAJOR discussions of this thread. I hereby humbly urge us to please follow the trend of sharing these useful ideas.

Goodluck!








#no to harsh words

Here is a funny trick from FUNAAB admission last year:

The sch stated that ONLY 3500 candidates would be admitted last year.

During the admission process, the sch SCREENED 3008 UTME candidates and 220 DE candidates at first (June 27, 2012).

Later, the school conducted a make-up screening for 62 DE candidates who could nt receive screening alert on time (July 12, 2012).

Finally, FUNAAB conducted screening for 695 second batch candidates in September 5, 2012.

Although, few might be screened out but not HUNDREDS of candidates.

From the foregoing, it can be inferred that the sch conducted screening and collected acceptance fees from 3985 which is contrary to the popularly advertised 3500 to be admitted.

The purpose of the above analysis is just to draw our attention to what goes on in Naija admission stuff.

Success is ours!!! Accept my humble well done to all members here.

[quote author=Sanguine sir][/quote]U can use ur primary sch testimonial or any paper that has testimonial has its heading. That implies that u can use any testimonial from Mosque or other org.

Testimonial is nt required during screening but COMPULSORY during Registration.

kiddakush: God bless u mightily....wat about the testimonial Is it also required??

That will only be required during registration.
