ArticleBeast: Abeg let me go gung-Ho on you? What does it mean to disembark an engine? What does it mean for industries to absolve graduates? Did they commit a crime that they need to be absolved? |

pocohantas: Hmm....i understand the feeling perfectly. I would have been in that shoe & maybe still sad � about it. I completed ND with 'almost distinction' and earnestly desired 1st class at B.Sc. The nearly syndrome tried to rear its ugly head again but I was favoured. I left with 1st class + 0.01 jara. 1 Like 1 Share |

I used to say the same thing because I graduated with a 4.3 Fast forward few years down the line and the certificate is collecting dust somewhere. Lmao Some things we worry about are not worth the stress to be honest. 3 Likes |

franchasng:This is a false assertion, IQ is individualized. There are average Engineering graduates as there are in any other course. There are geniuses in other courses as there are in Engineering, delete that mentality that an Engin. graduate is automatically more intelligent than an accounting graduate. It doesn't work that way. I have worked with graduates from diverse fields; engineering, medicine, accounting, physics etc. and I can tell you that IQ, interest, areas of strength etc are factors that come to play. 5 Likes |

Martinez39:There is no need for it, what you know is in your head and no one can take it away from you. I made firstclass but it was never on my CV. When I went for interview at Unilag for a lecturing job, it was after evrything that the interviewers asked my grade, I told them and they said no wonder. I was the only one dat got the job out of the 22 candidates interviewed that day... Your first class is in the brain not on paper. 9 Likes 2 Shares |

franchasng: No pun intended but that Dentistry you mentioned is no child's play. Anything medical related is not meant for dummies. A 2.2 graduate of anatomy will finish with first class elsewhere. Anatomy, MEDICAL biochemistry, pharmacy, pharmacology, medicine etc no be moi moi o... And besides, there's nothing like first class in dentistry. Thanks. 1 Like |

franchasng:life isn't that hard, get your transcripts and put it along any application you're submitting so they can know the type of 2.1 you graduated with. It's not so complicated the way we see it after all most of the scholarships going on would still demand for your transcripts, so you shouldn't be pained though I understand how it feels but nonetheless your transcripts will give a crystal clear point of the kind of student you were. 1 Like 1 Share |

franchasng: Young man. Calm down.. There's so much pride and arrogance in you. Some of us graduated with the equivalence of first class in a discipline where B is the pass grade for certain courses and in some courses if you get a C, you narrowly escaped additional year .. Imagine failing just one course and having to spend one more year in school.. Some of us studied a course where you can resit at most once... Take your first class ME to school of medicine or any medical school, You would sit in the back (that's where unintelligent people sit). I think you finished from Uniben. If its uniben, then ME is not even top 3. Medicine Law Others ( ME falls in here) |

franchasng: In my team, I plan the DB design, project structure. I adopt agile methodology to software development. I am currently working with a German firm remotely from Nigeria without a degree in either computer science, computer engineering or your over hyped mechanical engineer. My appointment letter has the title SENIOR SOFTWARE ENGINEER (Without a degree in engineering) Have you now seen how rubbish engineering is if you are skillful. There are first class software engineers in my team, but I design the micro service architecture for them... I still teach OOP to supposed first class engineers... Humble yourself chap... I'm a licensed medical practitioner as well as a senior software engineer . Going by your logic, we are not mates and you are way below my status. First class is first class even if you studied an unknown discipline. You are no way better than others. Travel out and see how your first class is rubbished. 4 Likes |

franchasng:See, my sister just let it go. A lot of people that are not in this situation won't know what it feels like. I could remember one semester like that I needed straight As to get a first class but I have two B's and 6 As so, I was very upset because the lecturer only did that because I didn't pay for runs and my classmates and hostel mates were telling me I'm not grateful to God and I had no reason to be upset! I told them our capabilities and goals are different, so, don't tell me trash about not being grateful. Do I look like I was praying for an oriyomi upper like you? I know there's nothing in a first class or distinction than mere bragging rights but it feels good when you know you're special and your degree also says so instead of people looking at you like a regular because of your class of degree. 1 Like |
