    People always failed first year, weaker students are coming in but much of the failers come from poor time management and adjustment to university pace and volume of work.

    But stellenbosch is the most expensive place to fail cause of the way the degrees are structured so this guy is rich.

      Not only meaningless but useless as well. Serious courses will tell you they don't count it in their point systems.

      Well here I am with 72% average struggling to find university because of space. People with 30% aren't considered. To get into most universities an applicant needs at least 60% average

    i think in order to filter out those stdents who have been at the university 5+ year trying to finish a 3 year degree is for every university to implement tuks & nasfs n+1 rule
    you get kicked out if you dont finish in n+1 years

    30 % . 100 of thousands of students but know one pas. What a joke. University is a free meal. It's a soup kitchen.

      @qinisombili9751 the problem is bee affirmative action corruption. It opens the door to corruption. The real people who wants to make a difference in life will suffer. The evil people will keep them down.
