My brother, it will hinder you from getting many jobs invite ,but with God on your side you are a comfortable graduate. Always remember that you can't give what you don't have..so be very grateful to God and stop disturbing yourself with grades . After all only God is the giver of opportunities( jobs). 2 Likes |

Your grade does not matter a lot, except you want to use it to find a job, aside that your grade does not say anything about your ability or how much you are capable of making |

Fountainofyouth:It does not need to hurt you. Anyway I understand the angle you are coming from . You are probably people like us that invested so much time and effort in graduating well. I really thank God I discovered earlier that Nigerian environment does not favour effort gotten through grade . My dear I usually advice any young graduate without connection , whether first class or 2.1 to start acquiring skills in time .That is the only sure way to beat Nigerian bad economy. 3 Likes |

Business123:op this is also my story,, 2:1 and first class can only give you a good head start after that it's how you are able to Improve yourself that will distinguish you from others.. I have a 2:2, it hindered me from getting certain jobs true, but I have developed myself up to a standard you will be foolish not to hire me because i had 2:2. I have changed 2 jobs within 2 years and I didn't even have to apply for the last one all within a space of 5 years post nysc experience... Go for professional certification and gain the necessary experience it could be internship, don't expect to get the best job instantly but be focused you will get there faster than you thought. Many good company still hire 2:2 very many with good salaries. 4 Likes 1 Share |

kamtrix:It will definitely hinder you from some opportunities. But bro, you don't actually need all opportunities to succeed in life. You only need to make the best of any opportunity that you have. That said! 2.2 can make the struggle harder so get the best of grade you can. Now if you have got 2.2, this will work. 1. Study the field you wanna establish a career in, as in real market study. (look at their adverts and you will see their regular demand/prerequisite for hiring) 2. Figure out the largest demand and desire in that field as per software training required, certifications. 3. By fire by force, go for these trainings and be the best in them. 4. With that done. Bro, you are good to go even first class students won't be your match again Stay blessed. I had a 2.2 also. 3.47 tho 8 Likes |

Apart from hindering you from getting graduate trainee jobs and applying for scholarships, you can still get a good job with a 2.2 |

Re: Is A 2.2 A Bad Grade For A Graduate? by Nobody: 3:12pm On Oct 13, 2019 |
2,2 is not bad but due to the high supply of graduates, you will have lesser chances of competing with the numerous graduates with higher grades. Your surest bet is to improve your value. |

First, I graduated with 2.2 though I tried my best but thats what I graduated with. Now, with 2.2, u have limited job invites. U may not be qualified for some post graduate scholarships. The truth is, GRADE IS JUST FOR CLASSIFICATION, IT DOES NOT DEFINE U. Kudos to those intelligent chaps that graduated with 2.1 and First class. I always appreciate them because I know its not easy. Now that u have 2.2, face reality squarely and train ursef. Get good CV and gather cognate experience (even if pay is poor) Try to get ur post graduate if u can. Gather professional qualifications and be upbeat about ursef. U will discover later that God loves u and ur 2.2 is a stepping stone to greatness NB: I do not encourage mediocrity. So never stop learning. I wish u well OP 5 Likes |
