Because they can't teach or make students understand the outdated crap that they teach. So they believe that cramming is the only way out. Illiterate teaching illiterate |

Not everyone can cram and remember. The lecturer isn't supposed to say so, only very few people will pass that way |

wunmi590:oga shutup. Nothing like nigerian lecturers. If a lecturer said such is not enough reason for you to brand all nigerian lecturers as same. All my days in school no lecturer in my skul has ever used the word cram on any of my course mate. |

Chrisx1x: This is the reason the average Nigerian graduate is semi-illiterate. Of what use is a grade if one month down the line you can't defend that grade? Yes, you might land a job if you get a good grade, but what value do you then bring to the workforce? You're still a student, so it's not too late to change your mindset. Learn the material for the sake of the material, and the good grades just come with the territory. Good luck. |

I wonder why those lecturers behave as if they were not once in there students shoe. I could remember a lecturer that will ask us to give like ten definitions of a term according to the names in quote. The funniest part of it is if u refused to put comma or full stop where the said name put it, OYO lo wa |

Cramming has never been my strength. That's why I hated art subjects like history. In science, you go by first principle. Is either you know what adrenaline does to your body or you don't. You either know what HIV does to your white blood cells or you don't. Same with Newton's laws or what cartesian tensor has to do with Euclidean space. Either you know the principles & how to apply them or you don't. Cramming is useless. Lecturers who encourage cramming are not preparing students for the real deal out there in the world. I didn't go through 9ja tertiary education system. Very different in the West. 1 Like 1 Share |

Let's all tell ourselves the truth. We mostly cram our way through the university and it is not just a Nigeria issue. It is also the same thing here in Germany where i am studying for my Master's Degree. It is la Cram, La pour all through. But the differentiating factor is the emphasis on the practical aspects which you can't really cram. You need to understand it. Take for instance, I am studying Information Technology. In one of the courses i took, Data Structures and Algorithm, we were taught things like Linear Search, Binary Search, FIFO, LIFO, Selection Sort, Depth First Search etc. You need to cram the concepts to actually pass the exam but then the course had a practical aspect to it and here you had to actually write Java Codes for the above things. Infact you needed to achieve a total of 65% and above in the practical assignments before you can be allowed to register for the exam. This is the major difference between education here in Germany and what is obtainable in Nigeria. 1 Like |

ramalot:God bless you bro.. You saved me from typing stress La cram La pour principles applied just to get good grades is the main reason why the numbers of half baked graduates will always outweigh the numbers of the fully baked ones. However, you will lack confidence if your life revolves around cramming and it fails you There's a dude rocking my dept with this cramming principle of a thing. I remembered a time he sat beside me during a test. He must have crammed his life out when the lecturer asked a brain storming question which requires high level of thinking NOT cramming. You won't believe this dude was just hissing because cramming principles had failed till he ran out of time 2 Likes 2 Shares |

That's the kind of system that we have built overtime in Nigeria. Placing more focus on results, and less focus on the process that lead to the results. That's why the average Nigerian graduate (yours truly included) cannot extend his knowledge and range of reasoning beyond the 2 + 2 = 4 level. My current professor/advisor keeps telling me that as a doctoral candidate, I need to start asking why things happen, and that knowing how things happen is never enough. 1 Like |
