Hello and welcome to today's topic titled "5 Top Reasons Why Students Carryover Courses In The University". This is a very interesting and serious topic to discuss because a lot of students find themselves having a lot of issues in school because of some very salient mistakes which they make. Nonetheless, the purpose of writing this topic is topic is to bring to the awareness of students the possible reasons why they get carryover in courses and how to avoid them. Therefore, the following are the 5 top reasons why students carry over courses at the University.

5 Top Reasons Why Students Carryover Courses In The University

Most students are usually broken whenever they check their results either online or on the board and discover that they had the Letter F which obviously does denote failure. Failure is not the end of the world though as you can always do it again and pass but it very important to avoid it as much as possible. Therefore the following are the reasons why students carry over courses in the University.

Firstly, it is no longer news that whenever you do not prepare adequately for anything at all in life be it academics, business , ministry, leadership etc, you are bound to fail. Therefore one of the most important reasons to consider about why students have carry over courses in the university is "Lack of Preparation". Preparation is very vital if you don't plan on failing a course in school. Success comes only when you are hardworking and learn from both your mistakes and the mistakes of others.Everyone that has always succeeded in that same course you are failing has made a lot sacrifice when it comes to studying. Therefore as students you must learn to sit in one place and study. Your result is directly proportional to how you prepare.

Secondly, another important reason why students carryover courses in the university is "Misplaced Priorities". There are students who have a permanent spot in the hotel. They in fact at times never attend lectures but see them only during exams. They engage in serious partying week in and wek out. When you come to school and engage in activities that are not benefial to your academics, you are planting seeds which will always germinate and mature to become a carry over in your courses.

Thirdly, not attending lectures is another very important reason why students carry over courses in the university. This is quite disheartening to say the least that a student who was sent to school will dress up from home and decide not to attend lectures. Most lecturers you see today are somewhat lazy when it comes to teaching. They most probably will set questions fro examinations from what they teach alone. Therefore once you form the habits of skipping lectures, you are on your way to failing thier course. There are lectureres who want you to answer their questions in a certain way. Some believe that that was the way they were taught and that is how you should write for them in either tests or exams. If you are absent in their classes then you are on way to failing.

Fourthly, another very salient reason which students fail to take cognizance of is their health. You health is very vital and important. Once you fail to pay attention to your health then you are planning for a long term sickness in the future that may either reduce your productivity in terms of your academics or make you miss your exams. Malaria fever is one of the most common diseases that affects students over here in my country Nigeria and malaria has a very devastating effect on students. When it initially shows up, you see it as one of those things that come and go. However during examinations when you hardly have any time to rest, that's whwn it storms on you. Therefore, you must make sure you eliminate any sign of sickness on your body when it shows symptoms especially whwn exams are close.

Lastly, another very salient reason why students fail courses in the university is "Lecturers Victimization". Some lecturers are quite blunt and wicked and once you get yourself into their black book then there is hardly anything you will write in the exam that will interest them. This may arise as a result of disobedience to common instructions from students or a deliberate attempt by the lecturer to frustrate your plans. This happens very well but when it comes to the lecturer being deliberate in this act of victimization, pray to God that it doesn't happen to you.

Other reasons why students carryover courses in the university include lack of proper time management on the part of the students, failing to rely on God and inability of students in several tertiary institutions to take advantage of past questions. I had to mention the last one because most lecturers in my country Nigeria often repeat questions during examinations and sometimes they set questions that they did not teach in class. Therefore if you don't use this said past questions from previous years, you may be strolling joyfully to failing.

From all the points I have raised, if there is a probablity that you are among any of this cases, then you you must ensure you;

  • you must plan properly on how to go about your studying as well as reading your courses from the time lectures begin as I have gathered that a lot of students read only when exams are close. This usually makes the workload during exam to be much for them to handle.

  • you must learn the techniques and tricks of time management to enable you plan your time adequately.

  • Likewise as I have earlier stressed, you must ensure that you get your priorities at every point in time right. If you are in school then you must acknowledge the fact that you have come to study and therefore get on with it with diligence.

  • Always ensure you are present in classes irrespective of whether you like the lecturer or not. This is because in the long run, he will be the one to set your examinations questions and you will be the one to answer them. Attending classes will build yur confidence towards the exams.

  • Like I have stressed, your health is very important. Therefore you must ensure you take adequate care of it. Take fruits and drink lots of water. Avoid junk foods as much as possible and eat proper foods as this will increase your immunity.
