Pls I need Ūя̲̅ advice. I am 28yrs old, a graduate of Economics but I want to go back to school to study medicine. Am I too ambitious? Is it too late? As per my age. I'm happily married ‎​Ãήϑ my husband is ready to sponsor me. I have all required science subjects at credit level.

To me, U are nt.
Its Better late than Never.

Your mode of entry will be through UTME as ur first degree cannot be used for D.E. But I'll advice u choose a school very close to home, considering ur marital status.

But one question is: Will your husband be ready for what awaits him? Medicine is full of stress and will likely keep you occupied, will ur husband be able to cope with ur continued absence from home for a Minimum of Six years?
If Yes, then u have no Problem.

Thanks @harbioolah for d insightful c0ntribution. You know life itself is a risk, d next six years might be stressfull as u rightly pointed, but nothing good comes easy. Naija is sooo unpredictable ‎​Ãήϑ I guess one can never be stranded as a medical doctor, as per my hubby coping, a little compromise ‎​Ãήϑ prayers can handle that or what do u think?

Good to know u have an Understanding husband. Add a little prayer n everytin will b a success.
This is a list of the Top 10 Medical school in Nigeria(arranged anyhow).
1.UNILORIN 2.UNILAG 3.LASU 4.UNIBEN 5.UNN 6.OOU 7. AAU 8.UNIZIK 9.UI 10.OAU.

Among this Ten, Lasu looks the Best option. Widely recognised, World class laboratory/Teaching Practices, State of d art College of Medicine, Easy to gain admission(260 and 60 in UTME and Post-utme will do the magic if its first choice). The only problem it has is the Fee(N348k).

Never make d mistake of choosing a not so recognised medical school. About 12 Nigerian medical skuls were derecognised and their graduates nt allowed to Operate in d UK
Re: Apply For Medcine Or Masters? by bibigirl07: 3:34pm On Aug 18, 2012
I'm so grateful. I wasn't aware of Lasuth's giant strides in the ratings of colleges of medicine. Thanks for the head up. God bless you.

Wats wrong wit AAU and UNIBEN med skul, UBTH is a standard teaching houspital and also SPECIALIST TEACHING HOSPITAL IRRUA which is used by AAU as med teaching skul, i've been to this two places b4 and to me o these hospitals meet up to standard i dont knw of the others. Many case are refered to this hospital by other hospital across 9ja. So can U explain wat u tink is not right wit UNIBEN and AAU med skul?

the ban on UNN, UNIBEN,UNIZIk and AAUA has been lifted. They were earlier derecognised because of their problems with their medical schools accreditation by NUC which has since been resolved. Mind you, OOU wasnt part of the list.

And as for LASU been among the Top 5, I'd stake my life on it. They may not be good in other departments bt they are the master when it comes to Medicine

@habi.. U've answered my question. World over, no academic institution is perfect. Oxford versus cambridge, harvard versus princeton versus john hopkins. Lasu versus unilag...the list is endless. Focus ‎​Ãήϑ determination is key as long as its ASUU compliant. Have a great holiday!

No prob with UNIBEN.
I think visitin d teachin hospital of ABUzaira, UNIPORT, UI, UNILORIN, DELSU, UNILAG, UNIBEN, UNIJOS will show u dat LASU is nt among d top 30.
Re: Apply For Medcine Or Masters? by Emmy3(m): 4:46pm On Aug 19, 2012

what med skul is dat, and how did u go abt getting the admission?. Some1 told me unilag requires NYSC cert b4 dey can giv the admission into medcine. I would appriciate it if u give me info on d skul u applied to and d requirements.
Re: Apply For Medcine Or Masters? by Nobody: 11:09pm On Sep 09, 2012
Most State schools don't require nysc certificate but federal schools would ask.confirm before you take the step. any school you graduated from will not need it too. You might not be able to do what I did, I took jamb again for the 6 year course in lasu, their medicine is very good with excellent equipments in their medical schools. I did that because my school (oou) don't get done with your bsc results early enough, and would make ♍ƺ wait for about a year at home before nysc posting.
