Computer Science

Desyner:
They just made it easier to have higher grades.
Before first class was
4.5/5 = 0.9 or 90%
but now
3.5/4 = .875 or 87.5%.

A lot of people will go dig out their transcript and recalculate their cgpa with new system then start bragging or looking down on the newer grads.
It should help the northern brothers alot.

It won't be easy o.... on 5point system, someone that gets B's and C's equally will be on 3.5(2nd class upper) and all B's on 4.0, but on a 4point scale that'll be 2.5(2nd class lower) and 3.0(the lower limit of 2nd class upper) respectively ......And E is 0unit compared to 1unit on a 5point scale

festwiz:
If you come back to Nigeria, that first class will be as worthless as Bobrisky. I'm not hating, its the country we live in.

Just because you think it's worthless doesn't mean they should settle for less

SQMrProducer:
Thank you very much for the info. I will make sure I submit the Institution's copy during the screening.

Uwc bro

SQMrProducer:
Please I need help on this. I have uploaded my documents to the school portal but I am not sure if the Jamb admission letter I uploaded is for the institution or the candidate. Please I would like to ask if I would not be affected if it turns out that I uploaded the one for candidates.

It won't affect you, no difference between the two apart from "Candidate's copy" or "Institution's copy" being on the background. But make sure during the Screening exercise you submit that of the institution

Bigii:

Are you serious?
I don't think I can roast it this night again. I'll cover it with big stainless plate.


Guinness stout will go well With it

you mean you're gonna eat it..

All the GST courses(philosophy and logic , use of English, Nigerian people and culture, Entrepreneurship skills, etc) ...Apart from this, I don't think I've taken any course that isn't useful in my field of study

tauri94:


Are you saying if a student can log into the portal that means there is a chance of getting admitted .....cos everybody can log into the student portal.

I don't think everyone will be able to do that

lol ...this is so true.

NollywoodFreak:
last month a student from ui finish with 7.0 perfect cgpa for d first time in d school history, but it did not trend like that unilag student that finished with perfect 5.0 despite ui being older than unilag. why did it happen like that?

Google question....

MoElla:

The one i have is the one i printed online with scratch card...

you'll have to go to WAEC office(preferably the one in the same local government where the exam was written) to get the Certificate, cos I'm not sure if online print out will be accepted

MoElla:
Pls if you're using ur Gce result as waec cert should it be the online version or statement of result??

don't you have the Original certificate

Wi5trone:
God morning guys... my broda has been admitted to study computer science.

he has all the documents for screening but has birth certificate issues.

he got it last month and I heard unilag don't accept birth certificate issued in the year of admission.

pls I need advice on what he should do?

thanks in anticipation...

I don't know if it'll be possible to go back to were the birth certificate was issued and ask them to backdate it

generationz:
So the village people stopped him from reading throughout the semester

You can't blame him though....

Njobdinio:
Hello please some help me out, by the grace of God I was able to get 250 in jamb and got 12 in post utme, I saw CONGRATULATIONS YOU HAVE BEEN OFFERED ADMISSIONS on jamb caps with my course of choice (Architecture) and school of choice (unilag) , I accepted it, but when I want to check my admission status in jamb website is then shows "NO ADMISSION GI'VE YET!!" And I can acess students portal of unilag. PLEASE AM I ADMITTED? CAN I COME DOWN TO LAGOS AND PROCEED WITH REG?

If you can access the UNILAG portal, that means you've been admitted. But one of the requirements for screening is the Jamb Admission letter, so keep on trying till you're able to print your admission letter

MaestroJhay:
Please i checked my caps now for admission status and found out my course has been changed from systems to physics even though i never met systems cutoff and did not do change of course. Pls any one with the same issue

What was the admission status?

Yes they can

WUSUAZARIAH:
Good day guys, please i need your advice.

On my o'level results, jamb result,post utme app form,merit list and testimonial my name is ADEBAYO OLUWASEUN

But on my birth certificate my name is ADEBAYO OLUWASEUN AYOKUNLE

Should i go and do i new birth certificate that will show ADEBAYO OLUWASEUN ONLY?

Or get a sworn affidavit to declare my name as ADEBAYO OLUWASEUN?. Am asking this because i heard Unilag can disqualify one for contradicting names​.

PLEASE YOUR SINCERE ADVICE WILL BE HIGHLY APPRECIATED.
Thanks for your time.​

It's not an issue..... I have 4 names on my birth certificate and 3 on my other documents and I was screened successfully when I did mine 2years ago. But from now on make sure you keep on using only ADEBAYO OLUWASEUN

WUSUAZARIAH:
please one of my documents are not yet available.
IF am unable to register on dec 4 can i still do it on dec 11?

Yes you can... but make sure you have all ur documents ready before then

Wait till you're done with screening

Moshood0090:
Hello Sir/Ma.. i need a firsthand information about DE into Faculty of law at unilag... i had Bsc in Political science second class (Lower division)..

UnIlag only considers First Class and Second class (upper division) for DE [it's in the jamb brochure]

Isobug:
Which federal university does not do nepotism and tribalism in awarding class of degree.

Please I need a reply, thanks

Unilag, UI

tzoracle:
this is my own experience


associate with senior colleagues who are already doing well. Most have already passed through this stage and the information they have is invaluable, for eg how each lecturer sets his/her questions, the way to go about answering questions, which information to seek out on your own and not forgetting that the kind ones would lend you books and materials

form a rapport with lecturers. this doesn't mean you should get overly friendly as that is usually dangerous, just establish a sort of polite relationship with the lecturer. sounds sometimes a single mark is all that matters and who knows what your friendship would get you, I can count the number of A's that I had lost hope on only to check and see an A

shine your eyes. questions leak, answers leak.. don't form jjc and let it pass you bye but take heed never carry any stuff into the exam hall. make use of it and trash it, sometimes questions change so don't let it be your only hope but don't just let it pass you bye

always have a plan for the day. what would you eat when you get back, how many hours of sleep do you get, do you wash on Friday evenings so that you can use the whole Saturday to read

do projects and assignments for colleagues: the more you come into contact with a piece of information the more it sticks. would you charge for your services ? that is totally up to use, most times I do it free as I'd rather prefer you owe me a favor than cash


don't rush your learning. you're in mech engineering year 1 but you already want to know how to build a car abeg take am jeje. I'm not saying you shouldn't read wide but focus on your curriculum. do not devote greater time to a topic that isn't necessity, read wide but don't digress too much
there a lot more to add like tagging along with smart people but overall give baba GOD HIM respect

Correct. #thumbs up �

geunik:

there is always an exception. It is not all who came out with average grade that learn life skills. It is with a general note i speak and not all in this category behave like this

okay

geunik:
The truth is, students who aspire to be first class have a single goal: to be gainfully employed. They do not develop the mindset to use their intelligence to develop themselves. This is the reason they concentrate all their lives in book during school. No connection with friends who can help after school. No additional skill that will help in after school. The mindset of other students is to widen out. Most learn other skills employers like. A first class graduate who studied a medical course may not be able to fix a light bulb. It is as bad as that. Someone from that same level may be able to do that and other valuable life skills like service a generator. These are skills employer like to see. And managerial skills are very lacking in most first class. They do not like investing in business for fear of the risk

Doesn't apply to all

nigeriancritic1:

COME AND MAKE FIRST CLASS IN BIOCHEMISTRY ANYWHERE IN NIGERIA. I HAD 2ND CLASS UPPER AFTER DOING ALL OF THE ABOVE!

Because you didn't make first class in Biochemistry doesn't mean others can't

NwaChibuzor:
Let him go to hell. His mates are counting $1000000000000 he's there counting GP4.96. We wey carry 2.2 and third class commot make he come follow us dey drag the small work available for labor market na. Nonsense.

Bad belle

so so false, or maybe my brother is part of the minority..... he's even the most gentle of all my siblings including me

.

It depends on your current CGPA, the number of units attached to it and if you're certain of getting an A in the course, otherwise it's not worth the stress....My opinion though

ASUU don start again.....
