EducationRe: What's The Highest Score You Ever Got In A Course As An Undergraduate? by softy(m): 1:46pm On Jun 27, 2017
Jesuspikin8:
The bold said enough of my earlier conviction.

And by the way, I didn't mean to score an A in Thermo is impossible. Couple of guys, about 3 of them in my dept. made As. But an A of 97? Ah ah.

Every Engineering student, if not every student, know that sometimes scoring high depends more on how simple a lecturer decides to make the exam questions. We all know this but the double standard of " they gave me" when we score low and "I got" when we smash high will never allow us to admit the truth.

Just like my Fluid Mechanics, I also had 84 in Introduction to Electrical Engineering but won't even rate it at all because I knew the lecturer watered down the standard.

It happens all the time. Some lecturers let you off the hook while some make you sweat.

I'm inclined to think the latter handled that Thermo that recorded 97.
Ur assertion may be true, but not always true. In the case of OP who scored 97 in Thermodynamics, his case may be like what u described, or may be not, but like someone said on this thread, if that course is ur preference ( ur favorite), no matter how hard the lecturer make it hard, with ur personal interest and love for the course, u will scale through with a very high grade.

I fell out with Engineering Drawing so much in those days, miraculously I had 72A once, but my friend loved this course like chocomilo, always scoring 97, 95, 94, at different level of his study.



All the lecturers for those courses I listed in my first post on this thread were very mean.


Anything is possible. Grace of God, being focus, determination, personal interest and hard work made all these high grades people are posting possible.

97 is very possible:
30/30 Class Assessment.
67/70 Course Examination.

I don't believe this.
Why?.....

There are some people with special abilities in them who do see a single colour as multilayer colour. Thermodynamics is one of the toughest courses in Mech. Engineering.

I believe him.
EducationRe: What's The Highest Score You Ever Got In A Course As An Undergraduate? by softy(m):
When I remember those days, I smile very well, then Praise God deep down my heart.

Among many, I will humbly mention few.

FIELD THEORY 97
Power System 95
Engineering Mathematics II, 97
Control III, 95
Electrical Machines 96


Electrical/Electronics Engineering (POWER OPTION)


In my ND days, I got 4.0/4.0 as GP in first semester, ND1 or 100L.

Most courses scores were 94 and above.

Glory be to God who made it possible.

PoliticsRe: Nigerian Lawmakers Could Override Buhari If He Vetoes Peace Corps Bill – Dogara by softy(m): 10:33am On Mar 30, 2017
This is what constitution says:

"58. (1) The power of the National Assembly to make laws shall be exercised by bills passed by both the Senate and the House of Representatives and, except as otherwise provided by subsection (5) of this section, assented to by the President.

(2) A bill may originate in either the Senate or the House of Representatives and shall not become law unless it has been passed and, except as otherwise provided by this section and section 59 of this Constitution, assented to in accordance with the provisions of this section.

(3) Where a bill has been passed by the House in which it originated, it shall be sent to the other House, and it shall be presented to the President for assent when it has been passed by that other House and agreement has been reached between the two Houses on any amendment made on it.
(4) Where a bill is presented to the President for assent, he shall within thirty days thereof signify that he assents or that he withholds assent.
(5) Where the President withholds his assent and the bill is again passed by each House by two-thirds majority, the bill shall become law and the assent of the President shall not be required.

59. (1) The provisions of this section shall apply to:

(a) an appropriation bill or a supplementary appropriation bill, including any other bill for the payment, issue or withdrawal from the Consolidated Revenue Fund or any other public fund of the Federation of any money charged thereon or any alteration in the amount of such a payment, issue or withdrawal; and
(b) a bill for the imposition of or increase in any tax, duty or fee or any reduction, withdrawal or cancellation thereof.

(2) Where a bill to which this section applies is passed by one of the Houses of the National Assembly but is not passed by the other House within a period of two months from the commencement of a financial year, the President of the Senate shall within fourteen days thereafter arrange for and convene a meeting of the joint finance committee to examine the bill with a view to resolving the differences between the two Houses.
(3) Where the joint finance committee fails to resolve such differences, then the bill shall be presented to the National Assembly sitting at a joint meeting, and if the bill is passed at such joint meeting, it shall be presented to the President for assent.
(4) Where the President, within thirty days after the presentation of the bill to him, fails to signify his assent or where he withholds assent, then the bill shall again be presented to the National Assembly sitting at a joint meeting, and if passed by two-thirds majority of members of both houses at such joint meeting, the bill shall become law and the assent of the President shall not be required.
(5) In this section, "joint finance committee" refers to the joint committee of the National Assembly on finance established pursuant to section 62(3) of this Constitution."
EducationRe: If 1x = 99x, What Is The Value Of X? by softy(m): 4:31pm On Feb 12, 2017
In my own opinion and in my little mathematics exposure,

X is undefined if X is calculated in advance mathematics theory, that is

1x=99×;
98×=0
× = 0/98 ...... This an undefined answer.

but in ordinary ( linear) mathematics, x= 0.


The term "undefined" is used in advanced algebra.


The answer to X depends on the type of topic or theory u are treating.

BusinessRe: Important Info On Bvn Registration!!!! by softy(m): 6:49pm On Oct 17, 2015
As an IT Specialist or Professional, IMO i think there could be a serious problem with this "general" code. If one's phone is lost or someone wants to know ur BVN digits.....one can easily dial this code to obtain one's BVN number.

If BVN is a private number, then it should be discreetly guarded. I may be wrong though, just my thought!
RomanceRe: I Let Her Come To My Home Now She Is Mad At Me Because I Refused Her Sex! by softy(m): 12:08am On Oct 11, 2015
Thank God you refused.

1.She may be pregnant already, but rejected by the owner of the pregnancy or she just see u as a fine boy and wanted to impose the pregnancy on you.

2. She may be on a revenge mission {disease, destiny snatcher, or payback to men}

Keep it up!


God had saved me in the past from something like this situation times without number, after refusing and in most cases, you will just hear the girl is pregnant!

I want to ask you Macjoe, if it is a RIGHT of a customer to get his/her number(s) removed from ur List. Or is it a PRIVILEDGE......huh?

PoliticsRe: Buhari Declares For 2015 Presidential Race, Live On AIT. by softy(m): 7:58pm On Oct 15, 2014
ISpiksDaTroof:
Now lets talk about merit. PDP has absolutely none, APC has some, not much, but enough to lead the way in the proper direction which Nigeria was destined to go before it got derailed the last 40+ years. GEJ did not start the rot but he has continued it. If you really love Nigeria you'll at least admit this claim. I lived in Nigeria a good part of my adult years and believe it or not I love Nigeria and her people. Nigeria would've been a very lovely place to live if not for the simple things that it doesn't have: security, good health care, electricity, water, roads, justice etc Nigeria probably has the best weather anywhere in the world... at least places Ive been. The people are wonderful folks and although sometimes I might come off as harsh or condescending when replying certain annoying elements on here, its all out of love and frustration. In the 70's, we all thought by the "2000s" Nigeria would at least be on par with countries like Malaysia and virtually giving South Korea and co a run for their money. Nobody ever thought Nigeria would be mentioned in the same sentence as Chad and Niger; except of course the topic was soccer.

PDP has brought nothing but destruction to Nigeria, it is still the same cabal and groups that have held Nigeria by the jugular from inception. Nigeria needs to break away free from them. And only Buhari has the guts to go at them. Let me tell you, personally, I think GEJ (even though a bad man in his own right i.e association with shady characters, corrupt politicians, terrorists like Henry Okah, Asari Dokubo, Tompolo etc, toying with the lives of citizens by promoting religious and tribal division etc) still "has a heart"--- when you compare him to other Nigerian Presidents. But the truth is that he is a coward! And a coward does not have any business leading the greatest black nation in the world, PERIOD!!!

GEJ seems to me like the kind of man that acts, realizes his mistakes, then takes steps to correct them. He did this during the fuel subsidy saga, during the banning of Nigeria from all international soccer competitions and also during Chibok scandal, you know what that tells me? He has a heart!

But notice that GEJ only acts hot headed and doesn't seem to listen whenever the issue centers around corruption. Whenever corruption is the topic, GEJ the listener suddenly becomes GEJ the deaf and mute. Not only that, he also seems to lose all sense of reasoning when that subject comes on. Its not that GEJ doesn't know what to do, he does, but he also knows that he cannot really go toe to toe with the worst of the worst financial criminals fleecing the Nigerian Treasury lest they expose him too. You ever heard that little saying "He who comes into equity must come with clean hands."? Yeah, it applies here too, and President Goodluck Jonathan's hands are as dirty and as sticky as they come. He can't beat them, so he joins them. And guess who suffers when everyone---including the President, people close to him, and even his enemies---are stealing Nigeria blind? The Nigerian people including generations unborn.

You guys really need to get it together and forget religious and tribal bias and pick the "cleanest man" amongst you. You don't pick a thief to manage your money. Thats the mistake Nigerians are always making. You always select thieves to manage the money for the Nigerian people. Well, unfortunately, thieves aren't built to manage money, their DNA is engineered to STEAL! So while you're left starving with no jobs and no electricity or good roads, your darling Senators are living in mansions while junketing the world on shopping sprees. When they get a headache they hop on a Private Jet to Germany, the hospitals they built for you is not good enough for them. The doctors are not qualified enough to poke through their bodies, but thats what they saddle you with. Yet, you stand in the hot sun every election to put the very same people that made you miserable in the first place at the helm as your leaders. When will you start demanding what is rightfully yours?!

Let me tell you something that will blow your mind and why I sincerely think Nigerians are weird and a certain section is made up of nothing but sadists:

SINCE INDEPENDENCE, ONLY ONE GOVERNMENT HAS TRULY FOUGHT FOR THE NIGERIAN PEOPLE BY ENSURING THAT EVERY LAST PENNY WAS ACCOUNTED FOR. The duo of Buhari/Idiagbon. No matter what you say about Buhari/Idiagbon regime, they weren't corrupt and did not go about enriching themselves like the IBB gang wanted (which led to them being overthrown).

Nigeria, you know your problem, and you know the solution. Either get right, or get petty and you'll either move with the rest of the developed world, or the rest of the normal world will leave you and your dreams behind.
Wow!......You have said the truth... Though it is a bitter pill for some group of ppl. My prayer is, if it is Buhari that Almighty will use to save Nigeria, let it be.

It is the same ppl that suffer the fates in ur post would still go ahead to put their oppressor in charge. Or better opt for bait: bag of rice and/or six shillings.

Nigerians have been selling their birthrights since 1986........... Nigeria- where a high level of understanding could not identify stealing as a practical form off corruption, but if u write that stealing is not form of corruption, u would be marked zero in Nigerian school. Differentiaton parlance. SMH.

No Sir, I am not guilty of any!

And as for stealing boss time, what of working extra hours which was said to be paid when you do such and they never pay it when u asked severally. What do you say about thathuh
Nairaland GeneralRe: 5 Things EVERYONE Steals by softy(m): 12:14pm On Aug 19, 2014
Ptoocool: You probably don’t consider yourself a thief; after all, you don’t walk into stores and pick an item without paying. You don’t threaten anyone physically to give you anything. But newsflash! EVERYONE steals. Let’s list a few of the basic things, shall we?

1. Movies and music: You think movies and music just happen to appear on your computer of their own free will? Wrong! You know that movie you just downloaded illegally? Well, that’s theft, honey. And that single – no, that entire album? Hmm, I’m thinking we have a problem here.

2. Pens and pencils: Haha. This is the most common (especially in banks). Know that pencil you “borrowed” from a friend or colleague and “forgot” to return? Well, you stole it. Think about it: how many pens have you actually bought? Or do you just always happen to have one dropped off by the pen fairy?

3. Lighters: Any smoker knows that you don’t buy lighters. Lighters just always find you. They’re quite like pens, honestly. You bum a light from another smoker, and before you know it, you get home and are emptying your pockets and gasp! Is that a lighter? Thief.

4. Cashier Slipups: This is the best. You know, you’re at the checkout counter and you’re buying five lighters, *sniggers* but the cashier only rings up three. Do you say something? Do you wait to see if she notices? What if the cashier was rude to you? Atimes it miqht be an extra change (very common) don't you just ignore it?
Or maybe it’s this: you’ve got a 12-pack of drinks (wine) under the cart and you forget about it until you get to the car, do you go back? When is it stealing and when is it an oversight? Or is it just an opportunity? Meh. It’s probably just God blessing you for being so good. It’s all yours, Sticky fingers.

5. Bonus Time: You’ve got a ton of work to do, but sometime during your work day, you decide to say “screw you” and you like a few posts on Facebook or glance through α few thread on Nairaland. Are you stealing your boss’s money? Because he is paying you for hours you didn’t work. Meh. Your boss is a tool. It doesn’t count right?

grin
Add yours.
not funny............ how do you defend your number one on the list? Take a look at this fact, bro: If the website that the music or video as a subject matter has a link to download, or there is a vivid instruction that you can download it, how is that one a theft?

in fact there are tons of websites that allow you to download as much as you can..free of charge!

If you say otherwise, you are simply ambiguous in your presentation, especially number one.
Thanks.
