Top 10 Important Websites Every Student Needs to Know

Statistics have shown that 83% of Nigerian students don't know how to use their smart phones. If you use your smart phone for just Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and WhatsApp only, then you fall in the 83%. If you use your smart phone to browse and download porn
movie(blue film) or browse unnecessary websites, then you fall under that category. Funny
enough, the above listed is what most people do with their smart phones.

However, smart phones are meant to make you smart and intellectually ahead of those not using smart phone. For this reason, IBBUL Campus Gist bring you a compilation of top 10 important websites every student should know, not just knowing it but making good use of it.

Starting from the least
10. Nigerian University Scholarships: The benefit of this site to Nigerian students is as lengthy as its domain name. Most Nigerian students enjoying scholarship benefits will always testify to the quality and usefulness of the website. It is indeed an awesome site.
Nigerian University Scholarships (NUS) are very good at dispensing information about scholarships all around the globe. It didn’t just stop at that; they assist students with scholarship applications, remind them of things on board using sms and can as well run scholarship applications for students. They also provide students with salient news about the various universities most especially, Nigerian universities.

9. Stackexchange: This site is not meant for everyone actually. It anchors more on programming. It is among the world’s highest programming community.
There, programmers can find, ask, and answer questions about programming. In recent times, they expanded their wings; it expanded to cover topics as diverse as Mathematics, English language and usage, Home Improvement and Statistics.

8. The Student Doctor Network (SDN): The site is set out to assist and encourage all students through challenging and complicated healthcare education process and practice.

Google is a search engine website which gives you a top notch to access almost everything on the web. It is the world’s most commonly used search engine. Another amazing thing about this Google is its speed of operation. Google can go through millions of pages in a second and ranks them based on about 200 factors.
