I humbly bring up this topic because i feel i should correct an impression people have about us, people feel we are crops of unintelligent people. But i want us to change that notion by coming out not to defend ourselves but to make people know that one`s destiny does not totally depend on the grade on his certificate.
Please do not be ashamed to post in contributions or opinions.
We shall soon form our own Association.

The job market in Nigeria makes your situation a little difficult, except if you are connected.

3rd class or not, you can make it if you try. Good luck.

Keep your head up. Don't let that put you down. We have examples of very rich and successful people around us today that do not even have college degrees.

optimist, third class is not very good. But with God all things are possible.

cool. best of luck

indeed, of all the degree classes, 2 are hardest to get- first class and third class. The former because u have to consistently churn out excellent work and the latter because u have to consistently do badly but not so bad as to be kicked off the course 

people who get both are very special and intriguing people. afterall everyone comes out with second class. 

walahi, i don marra 

this is a land of opportunity

men l feel and agree with you.with three stripes(third class) people look at you as if you are some creature so it makes one look unique just like the 1st class degree holders.
No be the end of the world look around you and find something else to do and be the best then they will know that you gat skills afterall.
keep ur head and carry go!!!

As a matter of fact, the most successful men in the world did not go to school. You don't even have to be a graduate to be successful. Education is only a neccesity. Like Seun said, if you try, you will make it, regardless off first class or 'last class'. I wish you the best.

Actually, having a grade isnt easy bt wit determinatn, u can make it if u try. i heard smthin recently dat those wit 3rd class or even pass have 1st class nd 2-1 students in their employment. most at d top r dropouts, its all about having visions and goals 2 accomplish. so stop drooling about such a trivial issue, optimist. cya at d top

Actually a third class degree is not very bad if you plan to work in the corporate world and know the right people. You can also basically make a headway if you have terrific, outta this world skills or you have the resources to start your own organization.

@optimist. I wonder what forming an association will do, Is it out of self pity for yourself or what? cos i wonder why first class and second class degree holders are not thinking of forming an association aswell. As a third class degree holder it would be difficult to find a good job unless u've got connection or if u av a good capital you can set urself up.

I dodge Third-Class degree seriously.

Is not a disease but should not be encouraged.
Dont think you are Jobless because you av a third class, we av some 2.1 product that are still searching.

Virgin nigeria takes any class including PASS and their pay is better than some org. that believes so much in grade.

If u are so much intrested in white collar job then a 2nd degree might be useful.

third class is a grade isnt it?
