Secrets to make you CGPA swell like Ijebu Garri.
So, the semester results are out and you aren't impressed with your performance? Was it abysmal? Is your CGPA below your expectations? Are you worried you might not make that grade you want to graduate with? The following secrets are not so secret. They are things you need to do to improve your performance.
1) Admit it was your fault.
Don't blame the lecturer. There is no time to be wasted cursing and hating the lecturer. The only way to go is forward, and the only way you can go forward is if you accept that you are responsible for your performance.
2) Stay positive
After accepting your faults, you need to have a positive outlook. You don't need to put yourself down or beat yourself up for it. What is done, is done! The only way to go is forward and things can only get better. Remember, he that is down need fear no fall.
3) Change your friends.
Not all of them. Some of them. You want to be a CGPA champ, you can't keep hanging out with people that are not sharing your hunger for a better CGPA. They will only pull you down if you let them. Having negative or retrogressive friends will be detrimental to the growth of your CGPA.
4) Change your study style.
Obviously, your studying skills have not been working. You need to change them. You cannot keep doing the same thing and expect different results. Ko le werk!
5) Self control: You are the master of yourself.
This involves time management and self denial. You are selling your soul to get a good CGPA, you might as well learn how to be a master of yourself. Devote a great percent of your time to studying. Cut the movies, cut the games, cut the gossip. Focus and see what you can achieve.
6) Know your lecturers.
They don't need to know you, but knowing them makes the studying process easier for you: You'll know what to read! Knowing how your lecturer thinks will go a long way to help you prepare for any form of assessment.
Knowing them will let you know the right thing to answer when a question is ambiguous. Knowing your lecturer gives you an edge.
7) God/Higher Power/Force/Allah.
There is a difference between a person that does not have God and one that does not. The confidence exuded by these people that have God is different from the jitters and uncertainty of those that don't have. It is an insurance policy, that you have someone to speak for you when you are not there. Knowing you have access to the supernatural is a good confidence boost.
Disclaimer: I'm not saying you shouldn't have fun, far from it. All I'm saying is good time management and good studying skills will go a long way.
