Out of gladiator's college, I made it summa cum laude. Front page all the time

Space Booked

One of the best threads in a while. The exact approach I take to life.

jcmaiah:
Most 2:2 and 3 third class student's are more successful and I keep wondering y?

With God all things are possible

CountDracula:
Eeya. Op ur child wil graduate univ wit 3rd class in Jesus name

I love this!!! Nice one Op.

Maczeelly:
Great..........xfire

xfire =====> yfire has said it.

i feel sorry for most 2.2 and 3rd class graduates in Nigeria. in developed countries, most don't even care what you graduate with as long as you have experience,enter through trainee or apprenticeship programs

why people talk about 2.2 at if one is dull or weak... I graduated with 3.39/5.00 CGPA my trouble can be traced back to my 200 level days when I decided to stay with a diploma friend living off campus.It's all fun but I can't deny the fact that it really affected me beside I have never seen myself as weak or in anyway dull. Abeg one thing or the other can lead to 2.2 grade

So shall it be for u in Jesus name.

My Opinion: I don't think there's a discrimination on degree grades by some employers, just that they are only trying to manage and control the number of applicants for some jobs in that 2.2 has the highest no of persons with such grade but with 2.1 or first class, they would end up shortlisting and controlling the application. My major concern is the age thing but then afffidavit does the magic

I don't know why someone will make a write up to encourage people to graduate with 3rd class, so unfortunate.

What I need after graduating is that little idea that will make me stand out amongst my peer.

you really have a third class brain if you cannot conprehend his simple post.

A word

haibe:
u are saying a different thing from what the OP is intending. . Obviously everyone wants to make good grades but everyone cannot make good grades, should we now discriminate against them? Of course not.. thats the OP's point

not everyone wants to make good grades, if everyone wants to, you will not have cultist and runs babes all around campus. The deligent shall bear rule, shall stand before kings no matter the class of grade. He would still find a way.

this is not an excuse.. technology has made things easy.. u can easily prepare an online test for thousands of people and get the result after few minutes.. so forget the number of applicants being an issue.. there is discrimination, they assume the first class are better than 2:1, 2:1 are better than 2:2, 2:2 are better than 3rd class.. which is not always the case.. a lot of factors can lead u to make a low grade while in school and it doesn't determine your intellectual standard

falconey:
I'm an undergraduate in a science and technology university.

Its my school tradition to employ 1st class grads automatically as G.A.

B-TECH 2.2 and 3rd class are fire!!! I guess the discrimination is on B.S.C grads. Thou the OP didn't specify.

are u a ladokite?

Oga even the cultists want to make good grades.. Human beings want the best for themselves, although some don't work towards it.. its amazing how u drifted from the point of my post tho

haibe:
If I were an employer.. I would give everyone an equal chance.. An online test on the company website is a good way to cut down the numbers for those that will make the interview. This is better than giving only a few the chance....Good points OP

you have also spoken well, but online test alone for 2.1 and above puts a lot of pressure on the company server. Thousands of such graduates take the test and in most cases the server starts misbehaving and applicants find it difficult to , complete the test and summit. If you add 2.2 and 3rd class the server might crash.

Also you should know most company don't have the capacity to conduct online test, they are usually out sourced to recruitment firm. So if they add 2.2 and 3rd class, they would pay the recruitment firm much more money to conduct test for multitude.

Where are the first class graduates?? Every body come oh,, let's encourage young Nigerians on the need to read well in school.. If u know ur CGPA finished and u got expelled quote me...

a friend of mine did a test recently in Birmingham, England.. it was scheduled for a week, he did his in the third day, there were lots of applicants. If as a huge organisation, you cannot get a stable server for less than 100,000 people, at least make the online tests in batches.. I wonder what you will say about the millions of people that to Facebook and twitter every minute.

Yes all 2.2 and 3rd class shouldnt lose faith or give up on life.i finished wit a 3rd class and still find masef workin in d oil industry by DIVINE FAVOUR.i have a cousin in a multinational conglomerate as a director who rose up thru the rank.neva lose faith and keep believing and exploring other fields of endeavour.kudos to those wit first class and 2.1 cos its takes a lot of sacrifice and discipline.always keep in mind dat the world's richest man (bill gates) was a college drop out

True about the factors which could drop one's grade. In my own case for instance, i was made to carry a 3 unit course for 3 years. A course i had ed and only had the test recorded for me and a friend of mine.
We rectified but to no avail. Thank God for my smartness, I was still able to graduate with 2.1 only my friend wasn't so lucky, she had 2.2. I'm certain she would have made 2.1 if not for that trash. Maybe I might have made a first-class too. Who knows?

will I call this paradox or what now. You can't tell me you want something without putting effort to get it. I ll take it as this class of people are living in delusion. There is a difference between wish and want. Now it is a "tougher discrimination ", some companies check the CGPA even as it is a 2 1.

This is based solely on my personal opinion and is not binding on anyone or organization. It is however to encourage all graduates that they can succeed in life regardless of their grade. Read on:

Funny seeing 2:2 in this your long essay, only if u know how difficult it's to graduate with 2:2 in some department

Mixty:
Good. I agree though I am a first class grad. Best thing to graduate with 2.1 or 1.1. Saves you a lot of stress.

this is good for front page
