GodlySammy:
Hi medical students, aspirants and doctors.
I'm stucked in making choice between OPTOMETRY and NURSING
Which one pays better? which has a better job prospects both in Nigeria and Abroad?

If you intend to practice in Nigeria, Nursing is wiser to opt for. However Optometry is far more remunerative, but has a shallow Job prospect in Nigeria currently.
Overseas, Optometry is better paying, more sought for in the labour market and way more rewarding.

Most importantly, follow your heart. Pursue excellence and success will follow you, pants ...

afobam:
UI was my 2nd choice institution and I was admitted for medicine and surgery. UI is based on merit!

What Was Ur Jamb and post utme score please? iam an aspirant. i just want to know what i should b aiming at.

comfort48:
if ur jamb score is above 250 and u study hard for ur postume u will stand a very good chance esp for the merit list.The medical school is okay,fully accredited .Goodluck.

Does NDU accept 2nd choice for medicine?

Hello medicos

I need suggestions for my reading habit

Please help. I Scored 281 in the just concluded Jamb. And I opted for Optometry, Imo State Uni, thereafter I'll change my course to Medicine & surgery, still at the same Uni, cos I feel I will be considered since I am an indigene of the state.
But thereafter the release of the result, on the verge of changing my course to medcine & surg, I read an article saying that the school won't admit students for med.surg this year cos they didn't pass the NUC's accreditation test stuff.
I want to change my Institution to UNIZIK-med.surd.., now I'm very very confused if I should go for it, what are my chances, I heard getting admission there is kinda tough and my score is kinda low for such a competitive course, I'm not an Indigene as well..

So now, I'm very very confused on what to do, I don't know if I should change or not, please you guys should guide me through, I've been thinking about this day and night.
Don't know If I'll be considered if I could scale through to at least 75% in their p.utme.
Thanks in advance, help a brother please

Oga Unizik is a federal uni and don't do indigenes shit. If you are from the East, you stand a chance in catchement.
I have folks with 276 and 76. Last year got admitted
Also 320 & 88, 252 & 100%, 321 & 71.
You stand a chance with about 76% Putme meanwhile aim 100% its possible.
I also applied Medicine too.
.
Take care.
Mind you I am a zikite-health related.
.
P.S don't quote me else I may not see it, don't knw why Nairaland restricted me.
Just mention me in ur reply, I wud see it.

Your UTME score isn't low and it isn't that high either. The score should make you work harder cos SOME of the other guys with 320+ would be on the 'relent' mode.
You'll surely be considered if you score very high in the post UTME. That aside, you're in the catchment but please do not put that in mind... So, pray, prepare well and be sure of gaining admission. Good luck!

Any Uniabuja med student here? I need to talk to one

I didn't know the person I quoted could ignore this.

Sharon8:


Please, do I need to submit my statement of result to the University? And also are there other documents needed? Thanks.

I guess you mean the institution you are applying for. If that's the case, you don't need to except you've been offered admission.
I hope it helps.
Gut your mail but couldn't reply.
Let me have your email address so I can communicate you.

Ok.. jamb cut off is 200 I think, ssce is 5 credits in eng, mat, che, phy, bio; school fees unn about 113000 naira in all(including acceptance , accommodation and all), unijos is 60k or 75k or 125k depending on ur hostel preference. 45k if u don't want hostel etc. I'm only sure of unijos pls and I just gave minimum requirements.
