A lot of people have bombarded me with their third class degree stories after a concerned blog visitor opened up yesterday in the narratives that she had a third class degree and was ashamed to tell anyone thus she couldn't get a job..
Being ashamed is natural because we think society will judge us.When I left the University of Benin with my 3rd class degree,I was like a running horse.
I was a victim of something that I refused to give in to and that was why I was let off with a third class.I was happy to go and in tears asked God to push me to the front.I never gave up.It was even more difficult when I tried to apply for a job and got told only people with second class could apply.
Today I have a various degrees and my third class degree looks like child's play compared to the others.Was I ashamed that I got a third class?Yes back then I was and I could not even talk about it,Today i am standing strong and Hope that all the people who come out to tell their stories encourage others who are feeling low because they think their world has ended.
Having a third class degree isn't the end of the world !
Do you have a third class story?Please post it here
