Sugarhugs: But Java's closely related to C#...you can conquer it if you really want to. And by "pop" you mean "PHP? Is programming more like an hobby for you? |

My elder brother who dropped out frm SS1 (he is 37yrs old now) received sense several yrs after our dad had passed away and accepted to return to school. He was already married with two kids. In 2012 he enrolled in a private lesson, registered for GCE and made 9 credits. He wrote JAMB and got admission to study BSc Biochemistry. He is in 400L now (rounding off very soon with a 4 point Something cgpa). I have convinced him to go for MSc soon after graduation and then PhD (he is interested in lecturing) and he is excited about it. I am his third young bro. and I graduated at 23yrs in 2009 with a distinction. My younger sister (next to me) finished in 2012 in a 5yr course. These made him (my elder bro.) very discouraged and he felt he was too old but we encouraged him that age was just a number.....today u need to hear him speak about passion, determination and goal setting.... Just don't let age be ur limiting factor.. 24 is not even old..... 1 Like |

Re: Can I Further My Secondary School Education At Age 24? by elsomm(m): 9:04pm On Nov 22, 2016 |
Yes. Yes. Very much yes. You can. Private lessons or better still go back to school What you need most are Humility and Determination. Temptations and challenges will come, but if u are focused on ur goal, you will overcome. You have plenty time to achieve ur dreams. God bless you and multiply the successes in ur efforts big and small |

vodutive:HOW CAN ONE FIND FREE COURSES ON THE INTERNET PLEASE? |
Re: Can I Further My Secondary School Education At Age 24? by Nobody: 9:14pm On Nov 22, 2016 |
Seunvense: start by googling "free online courses" plus there are many free tutorials on virually any subject on youtube Decide what subject or skill you want to pursue. eg software or project management, programming, accountancy, marketing. whatever it may be beleive me the syllabus and course materials are online. Then look for the certification body and do the exams. |

well i have little advice for u. experience they say is the best teacher. i was 24yr when i went back to secondary school, so ur case is not exceptional. just enrol bck and reduce ur age probably to 17yr dat will help u in future believe me. |

You can study on your own and be whatever you want to be. First, decide what you want to do. Science, commercial or humanity (art)...You are 24 .. You are still young. You can achieve anything you want. You wanna be a Doctor, programmer,Accountant, etc. In this present country and world situation, I will advise you go for science. Honestly,if you can dedicate 4 hours daily from today,you will be very smart in next 5 years. Forget flexing.Reduce friends.Focus. After your daily work, stay indoor and study.. Nothing comes easy..You have no excuse ..You just have to fulfill your dreams..You are in the right place. We Nairlanders won't leave you until you knock out your dreams and visions.Let us know if you need books, mentor or any help. utibense: |

utibense:if you can remain focused and study hard. then you may not need to register anywhere. just get textbooks, past question, and visit the internet for video tutotials. and just prepare for waec & jamb. with this means, you can study after work or when youre free. but this would take extra focus and dedication than attending a phsical class. |

Sugarhugs:what you mean is, you want to focus on front-end and learn how to use mockup languages and not back-end with actual programming launguages. |

Sugarhugs:i also dont know c# but i know java. however i doubt c# is complicated. because its the newest of those class of programming languages and someone that knows the two(java & c#) told me that the both languages are very similar. |

GMbuharii:actually the younger you are the more you learn. your learning abilities only rise from age 1 - 4, and from then onward drops as you age. |
Re: Can I Further My Secondary School Education At Age 24? by TalkingBird: 1:53am On Nov 23, 2016 |
Yes you can. But, remember we have so many graduates roaming the streets. So keep to what you are doing already. Get to an adult school and finish up what is left. Alternatively enroll in what we call extra moral lesson and finish it up there. |
Re: Can I Further My Secondary School Education At Age 24? by CashVessel(m): 4:37am On Nov 23, 2016 |
utibense: why not? You are still young and can be a graduate before 30 if you put in great effort. Just attend evening classes to brush yourself up and read hard. it will even be easier in terms of understanding. No look any person face...o 1 Like |

For me, Forget tutorial centre. Why? Most student there already have little knowledge of what is being taught. Whoever is teaching them, will teach like the topics aren't new to them. If you have being in a class where majority has previous knowledge of the subject of discussion, you will understand where I am driving to. If I was in your shoes this is what I will do. Get Waec and Neco syllabus and come up with you own syllabus. Get approved textbooks that contains all in your combined syllabus. Create a time table for it and discipline yourself to complete it in one year. It's not going to be easy, because it means you will cover ss1-3 work in one year. If you can even do it in 6months, fine and good. Then proceed to a dedicated tutorial centre to reinforce what you have been learning all this while. It is important you take exams in between, so get a reliable teacher, get Waec past question and answer them under strict exam condition. This will prepare you psychologically for any exam in the future. Let the teacher grade you and advise you on how to answer and attempt exam question. Knowing the answers and knowing how to put it down is what makes a good student. In another way What exactly are your aspiration in life? The mover of this world dropped out of school at some point and still achieved all they could think of. Open your mind and think. Save and invest. |

PhonePlanet: It's both, HTML, css and Java for front end. Then use PHP or python for back end development. |

nwasinachi: I think this is a better approach. Continue with your work, read aggressively at night and at free times, attend tutorials on Saturday. Buy lots of past questions and answer them like creed........ |

Sugarhugs: Oh I see, goes in line with my assumptions. It's very hard to move straight to Federal or State Uni the next yr after GCE without issues, only possible thru a private Uni. And then ur parent can afford it too. So your social life was zero, all throughout school right? bcuz thats the only way a 1st class is achievable. |
