Thanks but I didn't see anything like "check admission status on caps". It's only the usual check admission status that's there.

You're being discouraged by people's mere speculations and fabrications.

Don't tell me it's Medicine and Surgery.

If they are not that bright, u can go there and make 7 or more distinctions as best graduating mbbs student. Then we will believe you.

It's funny how pple be little their own diamond as charcoal. Guy by the time u write jamb like 3times no mbbs admissions, u will know if it's uniport or unical or ur gossips that is not bright at all.

Go to school and read your book. Its your life, not the school's life. besides, once a school is accredited by the council, it has all it needs to train a medical doctor in Nigeria. its your own effort that makes you a "good" doctor.
Admission is not an easy thing again these days... choose wisely.

What dept were you admitted in biological sciences.
If BCH or MCB you may change to medsurg if you have good connection + high G.P not less than 4.5.
PSB and ZEB have a very slim chance of changing to other depts, sometimes they select only the best performed student or through voting.
Though, students with long legs ( connection) do have their ways.

I advise you pick a jamb form as you work towards accumulating high G.P if truly you have passion for Medsurg.
Back then in 2015 I had same intention of crossing to medicine, I had much trust in my self that my G.p would t not be anything less than 4.5, I was told to buy jamb form but I did not welcome the idea. I would have Been in 200lvl MBBS by now had I listened.

MBBS is a calling, you answer to it anytime you think you can.
Despite the fact that I'm in 300lvl Bch UNN, I'm still waiting for.
mbbs isn't a calling. It's just like any other course. I don't see any diff.

Hi my snr Drs and medics,
Just saw this site which is useful for all mb exams 1,2,3, USLME and so on.. More convenient is d fact dat u can adjust the study to only one field or as many u prepared for....

Passmedicine.com

And for Yung medics using android phones, u can download "essential timetable" on play store and join ur school mates/dept mates. It helps you plan ur lectures and study times with alert system.

of course. we all see based on the way we are.
it is not a formal statement that it is a calling, it is a reckoning made to it because of the selflessness and commitment it demands which is also according to the positioning of the study/practice. do you understand?. That position and the level and quality of demand associated with it is not found with any other course of study, although they all be courses of study that opens up into their various practices, thus it is reckoned as a calling. you don't deal with it anyhow because it doesn't require anyhow inputs. it is deliberate about its demands.
you know that its breeds are different from other breeds of students and professionals. when you go about it like every other course, you will be receive recompense of it like every other course and you are sure to not ride along with it. I have said too much. I hope you now understand why it is held so as a calling.

Dear fresh Dental Student,

Just few minutes ago I got a call from a dental student from the university of Nigeria Nnsuka that I met on Nairaland.com who told me he was finding it hard to concentrate his mind on reading because of the many false stereotypes and sheer ignorance on Dentistry. This further goes a long way to affirm how underdeveloped the Nigerian health sector is and how grossly ignoranced Nigerians are. I think many dental students in Nigeria would agree with me that in their early years in the university the comment that they mostly hear from ignorance-drenching individuals on dentistry were things like; "you guys are spending a whole 6 years to study just the teeth" , "why are you guys are just a wannabe medical student" (not knowing the term medical student covers both departments except when a dental student wants to distinguish himself and uses the word 'dental student'), "why are you guys even receiving lectures with medical student?, they study the whole body and you guys do just the teeth". These are only a few mind boggling negative assertions towards dentistry and any dental student would agree with me that educating any other student on dentistry is one of the hardest task you could think of.

Many people have this false stereotype on dentistry that when you try to bring them out of their abyss of ignorance they find it so hard to believe even when you show them facts on google. A senior colleague of mine that just finished his pathology and pharmacology exams and is in the Medicine and surgery class (5th year I'm UNIBEN) told me days ago that his classmates in Medicine who has been in medical school for four years doesn't even know that dental students take Medicine and surgery as a course. Some would even say you're a dentist not a doctor without knowing that this statement is as fallacious as saying you're an opthalmologist not a doctor. Others say it is a boring course treating just the teeth the whole of your life and medicine is the whole body without knowing that even as a medical doctor you'd specialize in an aspect say opthalmology and that means you'd be treating the eyes for the rest of your life. Some say dentistry is not part of NMA, such ignorance; others say dentist collect less pay without knowing the two professions both work on CONMESS which is the standard salary structure of both professions; some others would say dentist don't save lives without knowing most of the accidents involving injury to the head in Nigeria are mostly done by dentist. I would like to stop here for now.

I told him I see myself as a doctor and nothing else that when I finish and I like orthopaedic I might take the MDCN exam to change my BDS to MBBS and specialize in orthopedic an if it is orthodontics that I want to further in I will just still use my BDS because I see myself as a doctor with no limited opportunities. Why can't we be like the Indians that have no disparity between dentistry, medicine, physiotherapy, radiology, nursing and MLS but instead work hard hand-in-hand to provide a better healthcare sector.

I write this because of the new intakes who are finding it hard to settle their mind on dentistry because of negative comments from ignorant minds. I want to tell you that you're unique, you're wonderful, you're a dentist, a surgeon and most importantly a lifesaver, don't give anybody the opportunity to treat you any less, thanks.

(A) 6.7 * 10^5 times

Its very disheartening that Some BDS students are oblivious of what their course of study entails.
The only difference between medical and Dental Doctors is that the later specialises earlier that the former.

The answer is B
To get the unit energy exerted by the boy
E=mgh ie 60*10*2=1200j
Now to get how many times to expend the entire potential energy ie 8000000j we divide by 1200j ie 8000000/1200=6.7*10^3times
