A PIECE OF ADVICE FOR THE PEOPLE OF UNDERSTANDING.
Pls read carefully and and think about this.
Its obvious that everyone is chanting "when is admission list coming out" with the hope and fear of getting admission or not getting it.
But its also clear that nobody is thinking of what is the other solution if I don't get admission. All what people are thinking of is what are the excuses they are going to give for not getting admission.
Before I proceed, let me start by introducing you to that which many are ignorant of;
-do you know that more than 75,000 student apply for ABU this year?
-do you know that about 49,000 candidates beat the school cut off mark?
-do you know that only medicine has about 12,081 applicants?
-do you know that nursing has more that 7000 applicants?
-do you also no that this year no post utme to choose the best?
-do you know that almost all the people that pass jamb pass it with a very good score?
-do you know that ABU can not admit more than 12,000 student this year?
Well this are some of the facts which are unknown to many.
Am not writing this to discourage your from putting hope in getting admission but am only writing this to prepare your mind for any situation you may find your self.
IF I DON'T GET ADMISSION THIS YEAR WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO ME? HOW CAN I BEAR THE SHAME?.
my bro/sis let me ask you this; if you did not get admission this year will you lose your life? Am sure the answer is "NO" from any sound mind.
If you don't get admission this year it is test from the Almighty God to see how you react. He gave you life he gave you everything do you thank him everyday for this? Do u go around telling people about his blessings upon you? NO so why now because he has not given you admission this year you want to put your self in trouble?
If you don't get admission that is not the end of life.
If there is life surely there is hope.
Do you know that it might be a blessing for you from the all hearing lord? You never can tell what the Almighty have for you in the future.
Everything that happen to use good or bad its surely a blessing in disguise. Its now left for you to discover the blessing in it.
WHAT CAN I DO / WHAT ARE THE POSSIBLE OPTIONS IF I DONT GET ADMISSION THIS YEAR?
Their are many other ways to continue your education.
You can go for poly or college of education after that you will go to your school of choice via D.E.
Do you know that their is advantage in going to poly before entering the university?
You can be working with your poly cert to support your degree education. You will also gather experience to help you cope better with degree program.
The other options are college of education, especially for girls, trade institute, and you can also enroll for IJMB or REMIDIAL.
This are the possible options I know but they are many others am sure which I don't know. you can find them your self or ask someone that knows them. The Nigerian universities can not take us all use your thinking faculty to get what you need. The word is too big and opportunities are endless. Pls be wise and don't let yourself deceive you. Yes your self because no one can deceive you expect you and nobody can make you except you. It doesn't matter if you fall but what matter is you ability to stand again.
Be wise by bro/sis.
Thanks for your time.
This is where I rest my case.
I WISH EVERYONE OF YOU SUCCESS IN LIFE AND THE HEREAFTER.
WITH BEST REGARD TO SEE YOU ALL SUCCEED AT THE HIGHEST LEVEL.
Yours friendly.
