good day, am a graduate form university of lagos, Nigeria with a third class degree in zoology and am proud of it cos i went thru a lot when i was in school,but my problem now is that i need to do maters with this grade so that i can suprise everybody. thank you

Good, go for it!

Congratulations. As jradetzky said, go for it. Don't let anybody tell you that chances are slim with a third. If you don't get accepted at the best universities, just go for some less well-known institutions. Once accepted you can than get a distinction, if you work hard.

If you don't get accepted to any masters courses in UK, try to do a so-called completion degree, just one semester of Undergrad studies and with a second class (upper or lower level) you can then progress to a Masters - self-funding provided.
