I cant make head or tail of this thread. All I see is the poster complaining about people's degrees followed by a photoshop of a baby with teeth and (ostensibly) born in the US. The picture is also on the web as "baby with teeth". Other posters are commenting about their own degrees which are better than some certain other degrees, some are saying they sat for exams in other disciplines besides their own and also helped others sit for their own exams, and aced them. Much confusion here. 4 Likes 1 Share |

ornicus: While franchasng and the thread itself makes no sense (just another bashing thread as usual), discussing the actual past (not an invented one) doesn't mean a person is uncomfortable with the present. On nairaland for example, most topics are neither here nor there, not everyone is interested in topics like big ukwu, how many girls someone banged, how much is brothel, where is brothel, complain about Nigerian women, how can somebody get manfriend or boyfriend, turn family section into nonsense section, etc etc. That is some people's present which not everybody can relate with. The past cannot be "all a person has" as long as they are in the present. Quantifying everything in such blank detail can only lead to existential or empirical confusion which would leave the "relegator" lost. Of course, if there's something to hide then mentioning the past would be off limits. 3 Likes 1 Share |

My father was a first class graduate, it really do hurts knowing that you miss out on a slight margin. In my case, I heard our department has just a first-class since 1962 of establishing the department and I also had a senior who was better than me and was not given. Since then, I zeroed my mind on until my last two semesters when it dawn on me that by picking 3 electives each in my last three semesters could have boosted it to more than 4.5. One of my lecturer was constantly motivating and telling me to break the jinx but another said sincerely that others who have been denied would not want me to break it. Furthermore, I joined school politics and that was another engagement affecting my focus. I have moved on and I don't blame anyone, even me, because I believe it was destined 4 Likes |

pocohantas: It's obvious the lecturer was right. My sincere appreciation to the lecturer for denying him a first class. Ehen Poco, I haven't asked you about your prediction in the last election. We all know you never believed the obvious outcome we all saw and preached. I am mentioning it because the guy called all APC supporters illiterate and I know you share same conclusion. ![]() ![]() |

olatunyemi:I hope you know the above emboldened statement is a statement of pride? Why do Nigerians derive joy in the negativity. It is common to see students say "Only 1 person got an A in that course, half of the class failed it" . And they say it to brag on how their university is difficult. Common, your lecturers weakness or stupidity shouldn't be a thing of pride. 5 Likes 1 Share |

ornicus: The bolded is where you said it all like a true son of your father that you are. He forgot that first class or whatever grade he graduated with shows his class or level both in character and in learning. That's why they say that you pass through school and the school should also pass through you. Education is not just the paper you came out with after graduation, but includes all moral actions taken intentionally purposely by an individual or a group of persons to bring about positive change in behavior. He had planned how to brag and insult APC illiterates or anyone for that matter with his class, but like you rightly said, life has partly checkmated his arrogance with the class he graduated with. 3 Likes |

pocohantas: Dufil Prima (makers of Indomie) and TGI Holdings are exceptions. Some top MNCs, by having a first class makes one get invited for a test especially if the individual graduated from not-so-popular university. Regarding the topic, some scholarships and funding come with the criterion, so it can be a painful thing for someone who nearly finished with one. Which is why it is pertinent that current students take their studies seriously. What the lad did by printing his grades' form smacks of ignorance and pride. However, some firms will overlook it and coach him on the need not to behave in a such a manner if he eventually gets the job. These firms just like first class graduates like that. So you finished with a first class? Good to know. 2 Likes |
