***CURRENTLY IN JUPITER***
Very very bad.
What happened now?
WHY THIS IS HAPPENING??? Social media! Students don't read again, Instagram nd de likes of it.
What is happening is that either Nigerians don't read no thanks to technology or Nigerian lecturers have sworn to get rich from bribery & threats to students
...you can say that again, it was real mass failure .. I really thank God for my elder sis and cousin,they both scaled through,.. Glory be to God
Na only instagram, facebook, man and woman dey knw.. leave dat tin o
I think those concerned should be in a better position to answer this question
And she wants me to propose to her. Nonsense, what will she then teach my kids. Engr Emy
Is this a surprise?from the contributions (or lack of) undergraduates and graduates on this blog,its quite obvious the caliber of people we have in the labor pool.
Hmmm...no be by force to become a Lawyer o
Phew! Yet again.
Mass failure in law school exam, JAMB reduces cutoff mark.
All these points to one direction, the decline in reading culture in Nigeria.
~BONARIO~says so via NOKIA LUMIA
Its simple to tell the problem; whereby more than 50% of students fail a particular exam,it means that the teachers did not do their jobs well enough.we acknowledge the fact that students are not doing justice to their books too,but with 60% failure,there is something obviously wrong with the teachers.unless they are insinuating that our universities are rather graduating empty brains....my opinion though
Dis country ooooo
Lib freak
Ok. Seen
You can't force yourself into law firm. You may try charge and bail law or resort to Oshodi market and acquire a shop for buying and selling.
◇◇◇◇◇◇If ignorance is bliss, wipe the smile off my face◇◇◇◇◇◇
I trust their exam will be grammatically deceptive and tough
I think the govt should look into it and do something

Provided there people that got first class and 2.1, others didn't study hard enough.
Oh dear God, help my brother o!!!!

This is a fake news most people passed
LOL, which result are you talking about, the current set haven't written the main exam. They only wrote MCQ and the previous set have been called to bar!
Please try to confirm your story before you publish!.. Y do you sell Negativity! All u said is a Lie.. I have Emailed you the Summary of the Results.. 68% Passed
Now all these law students making noise on my Facebook page will let me rest
It's all about connection, bribery and luck on the side of the less privegelled.
Hmmm Linda get your facts right..65percent passed and 28 percent failed
Dunno what's happening tho...
PLEASE FIND YOUR FACTS WELL. YOR BRAND IS GOOD, MISELEADING PEOPLE WITH UNFOUNDED FACTS COULD KILL IT, SPOKE TO ABOUT SEVEN PEOPLE FROM LAW SCHOOL, AND THEY SAID IT WAS 68% PEOPLE THAT PASSED, AND NOT LIKE YOU ARE REPORTING IT.
Please say what know. They already took the theory and the result is out. Another will write theirs come September. The may batch should start prepping for theirs. Thank you
There was no mass failure oh Linda be sure before u post
There were 4 first class, 109 2nd class upper, 418 2nd class lower,1422 pass out of 2851 students. 83 had conditional pass and 815 passed. No mass failure here
No one goes to law school to fail. Something ain't right.
No one goes to law school to fail. Something ain't right.

Shit mehn!!! They should all gerraraa there...........
There's April Set
Dis is really devastating. Na to try again nah! Linda take note!
Dis is really devastating. Na to try again nah! Linda take note!
The Internet is educating as well as distracting . The Internet age is clearly affecting general academic performance in Nigeria
True that!
There was 68.5% pass rate
2.9% conditional pass
28.6% fail rate
For the regular set of students
Ur an idiot taiye. Senseless talk
In the tertiary institution u don't av 'teachers' wat u av is 'lecturers', their job is to give u course outline, n' peharps share sum tots with u, a students job is to make research abt the course outline, and to ask constructive questions wen confused, so.... a student should be blamed for failure not the other way round!
Linda, its not every day dat d weather is favourable. Same tin applies to d performance's of students. Let them study hard then they wil pass well. Simple!
Pls verify stories well before publishing....Chinelo is right...This story is fake.
Lol
Isit a cause?
The sch should do something
Lol
Isit a curse?
The sch should do something
Shut up chinelo na u fail pass
Linda, this is not the second time its happening... This is the 2nd time the media is covering it. Its always happened from time. Averagely, only 20 to 35% of the people who wrote the exam graduate on the first attempt.
It might seem harsh, but the truth is that there's no magic to it. If u don't study to understand and apply it properly, its impossible to pass.
Most students are used to cramming, cheating in exams and/ or sorting lecturers from where they are coming from, and non of that is allowed at the law school. Even if u take d textbook into d hall and u can't apply d answer to d question, na fail the person go still fail.
Tough luck to the ones who didn't pass but like every law school all over the world, u really have to earn your grades before it can be handed to u.
To be a lawyer no be by beans o
Linda what are you asking? A lot of people find reading a big chore these days. Only one small post you'll post here, you will hear people lamenting that it is a long epistle and they can't be bothered reading it. How won't they fail? The know the lyrics to all the crappy songs being released in naija but read book, na wahala!
Blame it on the student.
Check your facts before commenting. There were two sets this year. They just released the result of the first set. It's the second set that just finished their MCQ.
Easy for you to say...are you a lawyer? lemme guess...NO.
Nobody should blame government here oo. If others could have first, second and third class what happened to the rest who failed?? It's the students fault
Foolish fool. Law school no be beans
Easy for you to say...are you a lawyer? lemme guess...NO
Some senseless comments on this blog bikonu.. .. You wrote an exam and you failed, how is it the reponsibility of the federal govt.
May God judge you for this statement. Remember a book should not be judged from its cover.
April batch
Too much lawyers with no job still plenty outside is why
May God judge you.
I was wondering the exact same thing...oh well!
For law school that's not true. When students scripts are remarked to bring more failure than pass to the pleasure of the DG
Wetin dem sabi b4...all they do is form in skul with white n black like choristers, yeye ple with a stupid course sef..
dere was an exam conducted in May 2015..
I think generally d Nigerian bar isn't easy to get into.. N I think the failure rate has always Bin high. It's only coming to the notice of the general public now because dere are social media platforms that bring it to d world. It's not an easy exam...
The lecturers and law school authorities should be held responsible for the massive failure. They should all be sacked like the NNPC GMD and all Executive Directors.
Appetite suppressants that work over the counter 2015
What result are we talking about? They have only written MCQ! Bar finals hasn't been written yet and therefore they aren't done yet! This is a rather misleading post
Please don't allow any1 2 mislead u. Dis current result is far far better than d last 1. Linda had better confirm her source of news b4 disseminating vital information.
April/May Resit...
Miss I Too Know!
I know you're dumb but don't always paint it on our faces!
Those that are calling the people that failed olodo are very stupid. I thank God I passed, but trust me, some of the people that failed are more intelligent than I am and Linda I sent u the result this morning @Olamy..........@yahoo.com. don't curse out anybody. Law school people are just messed up. But calling anybody that writes bar exam 'Olodo" is a SIN I swear. We don't sleep. We read like mad. My friend reads more than I do and she failed. Don't be too quick to judge people.
Chinelo there was an april 2014 set that did their Bar Exams in May this year. And the news is not correct,about 68% passed.
Did dey attend classes? Did dey read?
Very fake, majority. Passed, who sent. In this news?? Smh, keep uploading stuff you haven't confirmed
You are very silly. Who says they don't burn candles. You just sit down recklessly and say rubbish
You are very silly. Who says they don't burn candles. You just sit down recklessly and say rubbish
Keep shut if you don't know anything. April 2014 batch results and Resit exams result were released today. And just 29%failed. The only thing wrong with the result is that more than 50% had mere pass.
I really can't understand too. My sis worked so hard. She even cut down on her social life. Now she's among peeps that failed. Im so sad ryt nw. God knows best.
The only thing wrong with the result is that more than 50% had 'mere pass'
Dem no de read again, also online checking LIB and other blog, una kpele
The total number of students were 2800 plus and 815 failed. How is that mass failure? I'm currently in Law school, this result is a normal result for law school. Be careful Linda, you can be sued for libel.

Thank God my bro passed
Too many graduates from British and American universities where you don't have too much emphasis on cramming and pedagogy, which just happens to be the style of learning in Nigeria. Lindaikeji was agog with Nigerian first class graduates of foreign universities a while ago. In Nigerian universities, holders of 4.5-above GPA are few and far between. These same first class grads from foreign unis come back home only to flunk their law school exams. Go figure...
Dis is bad
Don't mind them, all they know is fashion, most of them don't even know why they r reading d course sef. They should go n resit or change their course!!!
Bonita, u go school so? Law school not university, which lecturer will u bribe in Law school?
Hmmmm..oga Tisha. Ten errors in a sentence. Na WA.
April batch 2015
Sharon u are so funny.haahhahahaha@ water inside ketch-up
some f u jst talk any hw...u tink d exams r like d class test u write?... u tink u can block papers jst like ur university days?... d tin ere is dt d marking scheme is sometin else...its totally diff... wen u write ur bar exams u r bn graded wt ur least score..... d exams comprises of five courses if u have A in four courses n a D E OR F in anoda u wl be rated wt either D E or F... @ Chinelo d result dt is jst bn released r 4d students in Yola Campus and d resit students they run a diff calendar.
often times the students read but fail to practice past questions to see how to answer dis questions. it is as simple as this: eg Que: A new baby requires an identity and the identity is required to last a life time. differnt strokes for differnt people, identity can be immediate or after 8 days or in d week of birth. what is this identity ans: name. But trust me now. you have to show d lawyer in u. you answers like this:Ans: cultural evaluation of identity has gone into a momentary relapse which is found on the premise of DNA blah blah. pls how is that related to a single word ans. i am a product of the Nigerian Law sch and it was way easier than d university.
It serves them right, again the black man or Nigerian mentality, must every one be a lawyer? Why don't they do what they love instead of what their parents, friends or society want? That is one of the reasons Africa is not growing. In Europe, America and other parts of the world people do what they love. That is why i love Keffi the dancer, she is doing what she love's and she is successful..
Social media. .d were twerking for instagram
At least they are Lawyers but can't be Barristers so de shud keep tryin.
They should protest as usual
Joblesshousewife, anonymous 10.10,10.12,7F09C19 all of you should just SHUT UP AND STOP TALKING TRASH.... INFACT ANY ONE THAT HAS NEVER WRITTEN BAR FINALS SHOULD JUST SHUT UP. WHO NO GO NO GO KNOW. U TALKING ABOUT PROPOSING SHIT YOU SELF YOU ARE A DUMBASS. CHINELO YOU ARE NOT IN NIGERIA OBVIOUSLY APRIL/MAY 2015 RESULTS. I WILL ALSO NOT BLAME THE LECTURERS ESP THAT OF LAGOS CAMPUS but then the students need to sit up
Will u just shut up?
What do you know? This result is for the April batch. There's this thing called research. You should try it!
My dear, say what you're sure of. The result is that of April batch
Exactly, our universities are grauating empty heads!!!
You truly are jobless,@linda get ur facts right
All of u shld keep quiet jor....Go and write d exam and let's see wot ul come out with.. both does wey no go school dey talk.
Too much going to hotels to meet married men and not reading there books
Na selfies dem de go take for class. Hehehehe. Akpa itis. After den go sey na victimization.
Now this is what I have been scrolling down to see. Some people passed because they knew what they were going in there to do. None congrats to your peeps that passed. Others just go fill up the class numbers. Onu ogugu.
Hahaha. Na isi okpukpu you to put for house oh. After she go dey boast to the kids sey Na first she de come for class. Meanwhile Na first from behind.
If you think the law school is like your crazy university where corruption prevails, you're obviously super-ignorant
Well am sure something is wrong somewhere, but biko people should stop judging like they will pass if they are asked to write same exams. To those that passed congrats and to those that failed sorry read hard next time you retake the papers.Kisses
You hit the nail on the head. Not only that, they are always on their phones chatting. Haba. Not like they are researching anything pertaining to their courses at all.
But that's the fact. All they do is come to law school wit a very good car and be forming about. Law school is now where they do fashion parade to them.... for the record, I leave very close to the law school in abuja
Which one is we? Talk for yourself. Unless you did something other than the normal intensive reading to pass. It's not by being intelligent without adding more to your intelligence. Some assume because they passed well in their Uni, it's a sure thing to pass law school and they fail woefully. They are itis. Take it or leave it.
Biko congratulate your brother. Odighi Ofele. Na im go school. Others go escort the ones wey pass. Kai. Wetin dem one tell their folks now.
Save us the explanation. If you knew all these why den did you not apply it to scale through.
Thanks. Like it's not the law school we all passed through and passed well. They are not reading. Social media has been their teachers and students. Students don't read no more.
na wah oooo!!!!
Shut up ignorant chinelo, the result which was released is for the April 2014 set, we wrote our exams in May 2015
Gbam! U ve said it all.
Ehen, the old lawyers are responding now. Hehe heèeeeeeeeeeeee
Yes but una still fail. Abi?
Only those that are there knows where the shoe hurt. You all can rant and chant and say rubbish. But you can as well go take the exams and see how easy it is. You can drive with mouth but to take the steering is a big deal. Enu le ni.
it is a pity students of these days are not willing to study hard due to the various distraction from their peers and social media. However, there is a learning platform called the virtual class which makes learning fun its called www.askthelawyeronline.com/virtualclass intending law school students should give them and see them pass their exams in flying colours
Do you need a suger mummy? If yes, call me Joseph on 08163018610, 18+ for urgent hookup. Thanks
Coz they are always on social media (Linda Ikeji) instead of reading their books.....lol
I am a lawyer while one may be tempted that this is done on purpose, I make bold to say that simple distractions are actually behind this! social media et al!
Those who complain about the failure and want the standard relaxed, are same people who will abuse some lawyers when you see them out there saying thrash!
Why won't they fail exams. Children of now and days don't read anymore. All they do is facebook, twitter, social media, watch TV etc. When there was no technology or GSM phone to distract them, they used to score better grades. Now, internet is distracting them plus phone calls, ipad, blackberry and text messages. They no longer concentrate on their studies because of technology. It is sad.
I no that my great ife graduates will be among does that passed even if they are just 10%, trust my students.
My friend did very well and I'm so proud of her - congrats Chidera :)
The students bought their university degrees either with money or sex.
So many first class graduates from the universities especially the private ones nowadays, it has become like pure water.
U r a big fool...why r u so pained?.cos u no get brain to be lawyer abi.....ehhyaa,sorry o no be we do u...we don't know anything abi but when u get case u go look for is IDIOT
Assuming somebody like royal priesthood is in law school, tell me will she/he pass?
A lot of people spend more time on social media than reading books
Shut up and say what you know
Pls sir, say what you know. I happen to be one of those that passed and I made 2:1. So many people that failed read and prepared hard for the exam. At least i'm sure of 4 of my close friends. So pls, don't blame the students. We read hard, TDB et al.
CHARGE AND BAIL LAWYERS
No you are wrong. I am a foreign graduate and made a 2.1 in the law school exams.
And most people would spend their time assuming that the students don't read.
Smh
With do respect to the poster, your information was a misconceived one and not the true position of the result of April Batch of Law school 2015. Only 25% failed. Stop the exerggeration.
See how stupid you are..if truly you leave close to lawschool, you will know law students are always on black and white.
Na d lawscholl I won go sooooo ooo afraid is catching me chai!
Too bad
The truth is that a singular factor cannot be adjudged to be the sole reason for any failure at the Nigerian Law School.
There are several other reasons. Chief among these factors is FEAR.
Students easily get scared of the exam even before the exam is written due to stories of failure and misfortune told them (students) by some of their Lecturers.
This creates anxiety thereby compelling some of the lily -livered students to read in apprehension.
Now, another factor worthy to be considered is the grading policy of the Nigerian Law School.
The policy ensures that students are rated with their weakest point. A candidate who scores 70 percent in four courses and unfortunately scores 40 percent in the fifth subject will have the 'privilege' of graduating with a 'Pass'.
If such a candidate scores 39, he will have the misfortune of having a 'Conditional Pass' without recourse to the 70 percent in the other four subjects.
Furthermore, there is this particular course Law School allegedly considers as 'very important'.
This course is known as Professional Ethics and Skills (Law in Practice, L.I.P).
It has been alleged that once a candidate fails this course, then such a person has kissed his/her admission into the Nigerian Bar 'bye bye' for that year, irrespective of what the candidate may have scored in the other courses.
A failure in L.I.P automatically translates to failure of the Bar finals exam. This policy which is aimed at ensuring that Law School Students are grounded in every aspect of the legal profession is actually taking its toil on Law School candidates.
The workload is another major cause of failure. It's like combining the academic activities from 100 level to 400level in one academic session.
How do you expect an average Student from the University to cope in such a battle-like condition? It will be easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a niddle than for such students to pass exams in such an atmosphere.
Above all, the God factor. To me, this is the most important as the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise... not yet favour to men of skills, but TIME and CHANCE happens to them all.
Thank you for this post.
