Lagusta:Am running a B. Pharm here in UNIPORT and I can tell you that there is no carry over here. The least pass mark is 50%, some courses have pass mark of 60%. Been a pharmacist is indeed God's say. As a pharmacy student I do both medical science, physical and chemical science and I can tell you that the ones I find easier is medical science. The pharmacy profession serves as a link between the physical/chemical science and medical science. Though, the medical science stuffs is easily grabbed I guess what makes it tougher for those in the field is the standard and the fact that its d most difficult to get in Universities(as a result of competition) makes it look tough. A surgeon(also a pharmacist) once said to his son, if you can read Pharmacy, u can read medicine 3 times. 1 Like |

MEDICINE and SURGERY IS NOT WORTH THE STRESS Do it ONLY if you love the work IT won't make you exceptionally rich You will be embarrassed, abused and insulted by the nurses, ur consultants , ur patients and ur colleagues Your exams are always tripple barelled theory, MCQ and viva There is ALWAYS countermarking You will forego a lot of good things and enjoyment You will read throughout your whole life The reading NEVER stops Even getting a place for specialization is not easy At the end they can take your license at anytime for wrong prescription or any mistake you make It ain't worth it bro 2 Likes 1 Share |

Medicine and surgery/dentistry is tough no doubt but other medical sciences are too. The stress is overwhelming but you guys try to make it appear as if other medical sciences are a child's play. Am in medlab,my routine is now like a programmed software waking up by 5 am when my roomates are still sleeping and coming back 6 Pm daily, leaving for night class and returning by 1,2am.. Most times 4hrs practicals 3 days a week from 2-6PM after lectures from morning to 2pm,not to talk of posting and the rest. Pharmacy students too here in Uniben are like ghosts, you hardly see them in their room. Probation, expulsion is very common from nursing, to pharmacy to medlab.. In conclusion any course in the medical field is stressful because you are going to deal with human lives so the training is in such a way to make you not just a graduate with paper result and license but a practitioner of your course.. 4 Likes 1 Share |

Without any shadow of doubt, medicine and surgery is one of the most difficult courses to study all over the globe. I was thinking naija factors was making it difficult for people in Nigeria, until I came to the United States and saw students studying like there is no tomorrow for their Medical College Admission Test (MCAT), just only to gain entry into Medical school. My very good friend who had left UNIBEN's school of medicine/surgery some years ago because he had a full scholarship in a US university, happened to have scored the highest PUTME score in his dept at the time(abt 89/100). Before he left UNIBEN in his 2nd year for the US, his GPA was about 4.94/5.00. To cut long story short, my guy completed his 4yrs premed in a prestigious US university with a CGPA of 3.97/4.00; prepared real hard for his first MCAT and passed all but Critical Analysis and Reasoning Skills (MCAT CARS), where he was just 2 points off to have met the needed requirement. Anyways, he went back to the drawing board, studied harder and knocked out almighty MCAT on his 2nd attempt and he's about kickstarting another rigorous 4yrs in medical school. This guy studies without break... Jeez.. (I dont think i can ever do that) Conclusively, medicine and surgery is still one of the toughest courses in the world and would continue that way for eternity, simply because of the volume of books to study, tough exams to write, as well as the long duration it may take to become fully certified. #notacourseforalazyman 3 Likes |
