/me pats Gigi.
What course and poly are you in, by the way?
-
2 semesters left.
No offense but chances are that it'll be unlikely to go into a local uni with the current grades.
Unless you score very well for all the modules left.

2.5 gpa............not good enough
-

Hi Gigabyte, instead of fretting over here, why not do something about it such as start bucking up on your school work and also have a backup plan such as saving sufficient money for your university fees. Even if you cannot earn enough for it on time, show to your parent that you are trying hard and promise to repay them once you have sufficient savings.

whats wrong with going to a private uni anyway?
-
2sem ar...aim for gpa 4 lo...think will have chance to shoot up to 3.5 ba...haha...me 1st sem gpa 2.1 only lehx..worst rite...

u have to understand something which is
Private Uni degrees are not issued by SIM/MDIS/PSB etc. they are actually the middle-man. the degrees is issued by the university(University of london, edith cowath, university of bradford) etc.
SIM/MDIS/PSB and stuff just facilitate you from taking the degree, which is taught by the lecturer frm that uni and ur degree is issued by that uni. so u are basically studying there.
u can work and study part-time. when u take ur poly dip, u shd go NS first. during ur 2 years NS, try to save up a sum of money. smth like 200 a month(thats wad im doing), when u ORD, u shd have 4.8k.
then u go work, save smth like 500-1k a month, if ur yearly income permits, u can apply for a credit card and use the credit card to pay for your uni fees(some instituitons when u use ur CC, its interest free).
so dun fret now. make sure u take ur dip
finish your NS
den decide

Then work hard for attachment ba... if leave good enough impression with the employers, will get good grades. Hopefully will help pull up the overall.
And find a few modules to chiong. If average get B, the grades have a pretty good chance of moving up.
