A well written piece! Thank you! Keep in mind, a life devoted to things is a dead life, a stump; a God shaped life is a flourishing tree!

Helping others in the exam hall is the most painful.There is absolutely nothing to gain from it... You will not even see these peeps many years after leaving school if ever at all. That was the major reason I did not make a first class though very close.

rubbish, most Nigerian 1st class degree holders and even PHD holders cannot express themselves properly (think goodluck Jonathan)

Most Nigerians are incapable of innovation and research, their education is rendered useless by their beliefs in primitive mentality on religion, juju, slave and colonial mindset. they are simply unable to think rationally.

Most Nigerian educated people are actually educated-illiterates!

many 19 year old Chinese kids can be the bosses of majority of Nigerian 1st class and PHD holders.

Third class mentality everywhere.

before you criticize first class make it.

Bill gates, mark zuckerburg, didn't make first class, but they dropped out because they had an idea that was manifesting.

The God factor: never neglect it. Success comes only from God.

Ditto for me. Even friends accuse me of writing off-point at times and not being succinct and precise. I had to change oh. Overconfidence can be bad sometimes. Overconfidence and get a 69 grin.
It is really not funny when result is released and you are combination of B's and few A's. But the feelings that I never waste time on unnecessarily is enough to boost my ego.

what people can't get.. they criticize..
because you couldn't earn a first class degree doesn't mean you should criticize it by saying "Who First Class epp" ... that's indeed a 3rd class mentality .. first class don help many people, I can list them for you.. Ayodele Dada,Ibe Kachikwu, Ross Flaws etc.
So please stop the hate and learn to give credit to whom it is due.. first class no be beans

You didn't earn it either cos your name is obviously not on that list. Its not all about making good grades in school if you can't balance it with a knowledge of how the outside world works. I was really close to making it but now I'm out of school, I wonder if the stress was worth it in the end. Which of the first class graduates in Nigeria got a job with CBN? Ayodele stood out because he broke a record, he wasn't the only first class graduate in UNILAG so where are the rest

Why are guys asking "who 1st class help?"

We just had a guy who went to the senate because he had the highest grades in UNILAG.

He will be sponsored by the FG for a masters program at any university he wishes.

We all know that people with less grades make it eventually but it takes the grace of God.


Good post, by the way.

It takes d grace of God for THE TWO

I don't know anyone who got a job at CBN, but I know okonjo iweala, former managing director of world bank, former minister of finance. That one no pass CBN work?.

Everyone says you should have a knowledge of how the outside world works. Correct!! but many people don't have first class and don't also have knowledge of the real world. Where do you want to belong ?

1) First class and knowledge
2) No first class and knowledge
3) None of the above.

Everyone says Grace of God, Grace of God

This is what is killing most of us, The bible says the grace is sufficient, but we must work hard.

Without hardwork, nothing for you. God is not our servant.

Nice write up bro am sure it will help someone out there, sure first class is cool and who ever has it out there kudos to you,,,,,, OP I want to let you know something here in a typical Nigerian University not every first class is genuine some are get this first class because of the dirty deals they run for lecturers "you sort a course successfully you get an A" and some others get parallel A's just because they are "course representatives" yet when faced with a fair challenge they flunk am not putting this up to criticize *first class * all am saying is *not all first class graduates are first class graduates* ,,,,,,,,,, they are great and wonderful students out there who got 2.1 you all should appreciate their efforts,,,, Moreover I dnt think the Problems we have in Nigeria is due to lack of first class graduates, we just have a dysfunctional educational system I bet you if there could be a level playing ground for every student Nigeria would be a better place,,, ,,,,,,,,, and we would have first class graduates with common sense
