what he meant is that they shouldn't limit themselves to Medicine because honestly, speaking, not all over them will become medical doctors. Some might be pushing to study it because it's what their parents want and not what they want.

I know someone who wanted to study medicine but he lost the admission due to strike. Subsequent trials didn't work. He wrote IJMB no way.

He then opted for Electrical, today he is staff at Total with house to his name.

You get it now?

doveda:
No, I don't!

These people have clearly shown that they have the academic and emotional strength to study medicine. It doesn't matter whether they hold a degree or have other options or it is not what they want. What matters is that the school promised them a guaranteed admission to study medicine if they passed their exams. Now that they have passed their exams, the only thing that matters is their admission.

They have sold your space to another candidate who is richer and more influential. Now corruption has increased and one dullard say he is fighting corruption. The dullard administration new admission policy has fuelled corruption in university admission process. INFACT AS IT IS NOW A HIGH MARK IN JAMB DOES NOT GUARANTEE YOU ADMISSION.

I thought I was the only one thinking how crazy the nursing graduate could be. It is d height of craziness and myopism. On the University, they took the advantage of students wanting "medicine or nothing" to fraud the students. What is wrong with us in this country? Other countries are encouraging their students to study, and even encouraging them to study humanitarian courses like mbbs, nursing etc but in nigeria the reverse is d case.

I hate injustice , pls let them get back the money . Or be given admission into their preferred course . Many times we have entered a bus going to a particular destination just for the Driver to announce that he will not take the entire passengers to the agreed place . He will look for another bus , plead with the affected passengers to enter the bus to their destination . He parts with some of the money to the driver of the other bus . Case closed . So Unlag can pay some of the money estorted into the account of another Federal Uni so the prospective students will be transferred there (so) they will have peace of mind . After all this is Nigeria where any thing is possible .

Which half bread na? I know someone that has dome this diploma thing twice...

fikfaknuel:
And didn't get admission? There's a reason for that. Diploma doesn't mean automatic admission. They actually select the do-wells.

“I have a B.Sc in Nursing from the Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, Osun State. I graduated in 2009."............

I think some people are saying B.Sc Nursing, Pharmacy and Lab Sciences are the same as MB;BS (Medicine)!
Why Medicine again after Nursing if not that Medicine is superior and leader of health team?

kolado:
Must you go to unilag? We have other schools for God's sake I don't know why some people are crazy about unilag. The injustice has been done. I wish them well.

HaneefahRN:


Do not fault the person's choice. Nursing in Nigeria is hard to fall in love with, some people never do so they decide to go for what they feel will give them fulfillment.


The system is really bleeped up. Since they have the qualifications to be admitted into the programme, why are they being denied?

Please exclude pharmacy from that list of yours. Nobody who studied pharmacy would want to go back for medicine! What for? To limit himself in hospital when his mates are in the industry, community pharmacy etc and making it big?

Many of us knew that medicine was there when we chose pharmacy! In fact, I beat the cut off for medicine in my de exam but chose pharmacy instead.
As for the affected candidates, I will advise them not to settle for less. If medicine is what they love, they should fight on until they get it.
Some people are too ignorant in Nigeria , that is why they think that medicine is all there is.

Tycoon4:
I would ordinarily not have said anything,

But you made a valid point, why would anyone with a B.Pharm, Pharm.D want to go back to study MBBS?

I know i am doing better than my friends who studied Medicine..lol, i know the myriad of untapped opportunities available for me, still,

Please do not mind the guy, just focus on your studies and be the best.. The sky is your starting point, and

For once I have to agree with you that uniben is a disappointment. The rot and decay in dt school is just too much. Unfortunately, dts how most of our higher institutions are, sad.

Why study nursing and come back again for medicine? d hustle is real. I had a relative that studied nursing and went back again for pharmacy. Can someone tell me why?

Efriday1:

U must always mention pharmacy when medicine is mentioned. Surely there's a course in pharmacy that teaches pharmacy students to compare medicine and pharmacy. For now everybody wants medicine. There's something about that course aside from the money. I know people that spend more to become doctors than they can ever earn as docs. I also know pharmacists that at some points wish their course could be called medicine and surgery.
