Hello. I remember there was a problem with cgpa calculation. I finished 2010 and my cgpa was lower than when I calculated myself, same with some other students. We reported and they said they will work on them. I remember someone saying it's the software used at that time.

Well mine wasn't changed, I think some people who were very negatively affected were resolved. I got tired of going there, complaining and writing to HOD and CITS. It didnt affect my grade, I was still on 2.1. The diff was small sha but I felt I should have my EXACT cgpa and not less by 0.01 or more.

People please do not be quick to call someone a liar. That you haven't heard a case before doesn't mean it couldnt have happened. Do you know everything? How can you tell whether something is possible or not. The best is to ask/ probe further and see if your doubt will be cleared.

adey2014:
why i like people like you is that u always think people are lying when u havent heard of such a case before, well i graduated in 2008. chemistry education. you dont know me and i had no reason to put up the story. i only did when someone made mention of why someone had to do a second undergraduate. well i did a second undergraduate. did exceptionally well and still doin fine till today. but saying i sud accept my grades and not blame the dept. i wont take that from u. if u feel am lying. contact me personally and İ will show u my transcript and u will have to come to the thread and apoligize cos u clearly said words u knew nothing about

My own grades were not changed. The prob was the summation. I didnt know anyone with this kind of issue.

How can you let them put an F when you got a C or record new courses for you? Were you the only one in your dept affected? What did your HOD say? I am asking because what you stated below is a major case which should be looked into with immediate effect. This is not a witch matter, major cases call for drastic actions.

So were you the only one affected? Why did you stop disturbing them?

adey2014:
maybe because God wanted a better life for me. i did direct entry to enter the program. chemistry education unilag and in my final year. my then departmental hod (dr busari may her soul rip) introduced a software for results calculation and as unlucky as i cud get. thw software operator went to record year 1 courses which i didnt do for me and put E along with a year four course which i did and scored C then recorded as F. u cud say my hometown witches followed me well. lolx but thank God cos everything in life has a reason for happening

Hi in the house, pls I need someone to help me with any school in US that has low tuition fee, I want to apply for my younger brother, I will appreciate people that have apply to those school before.

Thanks,

My good friend dropped from 2.1 to 2.2. Was a small margin and it took it down to less than 3.5. She wasn't the only one. We all tabled our cases and she told me hers was corrected. I was happy for her, imagine carying a 2.2 because of some miscalculations.

And no, they didnt dash them marks, the manual calculation showed the true cgpa. I guess they took their own seriously because of the impact. I had a diff of 0.04 less my cgpa and I am not very okay with it.

So poster, why didnt your HOD assist resolve yours? Did you say your lecturer introduced that software? Because that's not what I heard.

gaviria:


[/b]They changed 2:2 to third class[b] for you Mistakes like that can only come from CITS and it [/b]can't be that bad[b] or else it'll affect the whole department in which case it'll be resolved. So accept your Grade and don't blame Software sir.

EZEIGBO1OFIMO:

yes, i called you an idiot, and that is obviously what you are; you're not the only person with terrible grades frome the schools, as we are plenty, and i dont see others and myself, biitching and whining about how one HOD or the other did this and that and how UNILAG is the university equivalent of a failed state. "no hod introduced any software, nobody dashed me E's I didn't get, and nobody is responsible for my academic demise"; say those words to yourself five times every morning, and you will find closure, ewu nama

yes, i called you an idiot, and that is obviously what you are;i
don't think its cool enough to come here and abuse anyone or call them an idiot, people like you are the reasons why the country is failing everyday, you need to sit tight and think and stop being a kid, everyone here is matured i think but you don't prove to be, why calling someone you don't even know an idiot. you don't make any sense bro sit tight and think.

Joining you soon in faith

I am rounding up my Second year of studying Biochemistry.

I have read about people complaining about Results computation errors.

In my first year, I had a missing script. I reported, wrote letter, followed up... Sent messages, result didn't show.

I went to Admin and requested for my First year transcript ( paid N1,150). Lo, in the transcript, None of my score was missing. I said Okay o.

What I will do is, after every session, I will go and request for Transcript to make sure no error is made from the Result pasted by the department.

Everybody is vexing in this country these days, they can use vex and Scatter somebody's result.

And, some people don't like checking results when they are pasted, Ahh... Please Whenever your results are released, Copy and Keep Safe. If you have any problems with the scores, report immediately.

Did you have the same issue? My faculty is Sciences for those in doubt, 2010 set, so you can ask your friends if they heard the cgpa issue.

I didnt want to go about telling people, whether unilag image is affected or not, but hey I know something happened, although the poster's story is very different from what we experienced in our dept then. I still love unilag and they are owing me 0.04 points I even went there this year about the matter but nothing. I'm sure they will be saying after 7 years, this student no wan gree.

Tunnyz:

See if you haven't experienced sh!t you don't have to say people are lying n bla bla when they narrate their experiences. If it's smooth for you then u gotta ignore and move on. I put it to you that you're just being Mr itk..

Please gurus in the house, who has flown Egypt air before? How is their service like and is it advisable to choose them over Air Maroc? Thanks.

Congrats... may God bless your new journey

Your course is an interesting one because i dont see a lot of our people coming from Naija doing this course but CRA is a good career path in the US once you can break into it and grow from there

Thanks ma'am. When I found out about the program, I knew I'd be going to St cloud.

The funny thing is the cgpa was accurate from year 1 till final year first semester. Then after our second semester final exam results came out, the cgpa pasted was diff. So we confronted them, "Sir see the cgpa as of first semester year 4, add the second semester results and you will get this not that". They all agreed.

You dont need to prove anything to anyone, as long as you are sure of what you are saying. Leave people who are quick to rain abuse on others for nothing, forgetting they need to err on the side of caution when they are in doubt.

I am still asking, why did you accept something you know will hinder your academic plans Did your parents/guardian not contest this?

adey2014:
instead of coming here to use abusive words. y not contact me personally to confirm and then come back to tell the whole world am lying instead of coming here to just prove what is wrong. may i ask when did u graduate from unilag and i am begging u to pls send a personal mail so i can show u this cos am really shocked at ur level of reasoning. anyways i dont need u to tell me what words to tell myself cos u dont even know what led to me saying those words. i wont comment on this again cos we are ignoring the main reason for this thread. thank u for ur comment and best of luck in the future.

The one mark may not really make a difference. Your gp is high. You should mail the admission office of the school to know if they can admit you on conditionally. You said fall 2017. Seems like you have very short time to complete a long process. Best of luck.

God bless u. i did then and i went with my uncle in 2009 and i was assured it was going to be rectified my cpga dropped to 2.38/5.0 and that it will reflect in the convocation of 2008/2009 which will be done in jan 2010. i went for service just for me to call my friend to check the convocation list which bought out my name but no rectification was done. if only two of the four courses . che 101 (4 units) and che 102 (2 units) which i didnt register for or even sat for cause İ was direct entry was removed then i wud av entered 2.40. i still went back after my service and applied for pgd in education. i was not admitted and by that time, the dean of education (prof busari) who knew my case had died and by 2011 after going up and down. the new hod for science and tech edu siad she had never had of my case. i gave up at that point and thank God for my parents encouraged me to do another undergraduate. it was not as if i didnt fight. i just chased a better dream and thank God it turned out well. its just a pity people who dont know anything about unilag all come out here talking. the days of ibidapo obe when course form was by paper and results were in broadsheets.

the software if i am really correct started with my set in the faculty of education. before 2007/2008. results were calculated manually by the course adviser. but it changed for us. if u ever had of prof temi busari.who died in education. she was the dean who introduced that software for results calculation.

Bro, I empathize with you and I know how it feels. In my final year in the University, a course i had a B was turned to a C. How do i know i had a B you may ask? The course was a 300 level course and the result was on my portal and i printed it out. With this printed copy i had an evidence which i use to complain to the department severally. To cut the long story short, guess what i was told? I was told i already had a first class degree why should i still bother over a grade that was changed and it makes little difference in my CGPA. Moreover, from my transcript i never had a C, so at least it shows the department is very strict with marks. Do you know the difference of 0.01 costs me from being the Best Graduating student in the school? The Best graduating student's CGPA was higher than mine with 0.01.

This is just to give an insight on what is happening in our institutions. All said, i was asked to do my MSc in that same school, me? Only if they know the resentment i hold against them.

Bro, never give up, you don't have to prove anything to anyone and with God by your side your best is yet to come.

Grades alone cannot define your future but Grace can. Do your best, this American Dream must be achieved.

Sorry for the long epistle, I've never said all these to anyone.

Same issue in different school.. Buh so many of d people I know had same issue in Unilag... That guy should have just kept quiet and not say other people's stories aint true just because he didn't have that experience.

thanks for the encouragement. i had gotten over that since and have gone up to have amazing results afterwards. i only made my situation know to point out a misconception of someone not seeing a reason y a person sud go for another undergraduate degree.

Beautifully said ...... Even though i am not advocating poor grades. Having good grades is very important but if you find yourself in such situation

It's not how many times you get knocked down that count, it's how many times you get back up.....

Congratulations bro, this is long overdue. Safe journey to trumpland.

If I had this kind of issue, I for no gree. The press and other agencies will get involved. Huh? No C in your result plus best graduating student being taken from you....I wee not keep kwayet ooo.

Its really sad how things are trivialised in this country. I was told shebi I am already on 2.1 that I am fine like that. I didn't know so many other students were involved, we for carry placard and march till Unilag gives us our right cgpa

I.T money, person dey chop that one. 15k, wonder if anyone got their pay. I remember the day they called us to come and put down our account details, see rushing and excitement, we waitied for ages...no alert. We moved on.

I'm inspired bruv

Sorry you had to go through the stress. It's okay you mentioned this at least people will get to hear. Someone might take up the case, so other students are not affected (if they havent changed what they used then).

It will be totally unfair for me not to speak up in your favour in the midst of backlash when I had similar case. So they can take back their words and learn to give people the benefit of doubt. They haven't seen it all

I just saw your new cgpa. First class Congrats!!!!
