[quote author=Cardiojosh post=122888004][/quote] Hmmmmmmm. This connection/slot of a thing is becoming a plague and gradually engulfing nigerian institutions. I have came across a guy that had applied for mbbs for three years in UNIJOS with jamb scores 280+, 290+, and 270+ but couldn't get it and another lady who's currently studying the same mbbs at the same UNIJOS with jamb score 197, whose father is a prof. at the university. I fear who no fear UJ oo. Meanwhile, you school at UNIMAID ??

Honestly that score is really low(considering the competition). If he can afford a Private Medical School, that's where his admission is guaranteed. But for Public universities?? :-x

No harm in trying. Probably a university that would require post ume score. That will give him a fighting chance. He could go to the North as well.

that's y I'm asking between unical and uniport. He wants to switch to uniport because of his peers but I saw that the departmental cut off mark for unical last year was 227.
So b/w uniport and unical which would offer him admission if he can get up to 300 in post utme

Well I don't really know what you mean by this but candidates with 300, 320, 330 even a few 340's get retired in UI every year, it'd be suicidally impossible for a 269 to secure an mbbs admission at UI.

Putting this here for nothing else than the purpose of clarification.

Almost impossible should be the word

92 and jamb score 269
Will pose a threat. But if you think 92 is an impossible score it’s fine. For someone with 340 to get relegated he must have gotten an abysmally low score like 66 or below.

I no get strength for argument.

Funny enough someone running a tutorial in Ibadan had a student with 203 for UI medicine. And the person refused to change course or school. She told her tutor not to be a discourager lol. Now it’s this type you’ll call suicidal.

Honestly, let me be candid.

That score is low for Medicine, with the level of high scorers we see in JAMB these days.

227 can not be the ADMISSION DEPARTMENTAL CUTOFF. It might be the cutoff for one to be qualified for the PUTME.

Yes, he might be right about UNIPORT.

UNIPORT prioritizes PUTME more. How ever scoring so high in the PUTME is not so easy. In UNIPORT you find scores like;

JAMB 338
PUTME 250

JAMB 370
PUTME 275

etc.
I have actually seen
312
204
Talking from experience though.

If he can score high up to 300 or more in PUTME, I'd think UNIPORT would suffice. Meanwhile, scoring high isn't so easy, take note. He could try Dentistry ij UNIPORT aswell.

Even some private Universities might push him to another Medical course.

Instead of gambling, why dont he switch course to a less competitive one, unless maybe he is young and can take the risk.

If you have got the money;
PAMO
BAYELSA MED. UNI
DAVID UMAHI UNI
EKO MED. SCHOOL etc

Some other new Universities could give him a good chance also

FED UNI. LOKOJA and the rest of them.


I wish him success in whatever decision he takes.

Guy! Argument is not my thing but the fact should be said, every single post is as important in the decision making of aspirants here, writing this to avoid had I known situations. A friend of mine was telling me some days ago of how his 322 got wasted at UI in the just concluded admission exercise, worse was that he didn't register for this year's UTME.

You really think somebody who would be able to secure 92 shocked shocked in UI's post UTME would score 270 in Jamb? Let's be sincere with ourselves haba!

When I wrote UTME in 2020, my 305 got wasted by UI, had to rush and change to FUTA, it was there I met people with 330's who were as well ridiculed by UI. Of course 300+ do gain admission there but trust me, they sacrificed a lot for it, it's a very brutal race when it comes to MB;BS in UI.

I really have a long epistle here, but my point to aspirants is: be real with yourself, stop living in an utopian dream of "I will be an exception to that", choose your course wisely. Change if you need to: either your course or your university. Time is money! cry

I won't advice Uniuyo.

UNIPORT is a better option. Prepare for the POST UTME.

Someone got Pharmacy in UDUSok with 223 Jamb score on merit list.
Another got MBBS with 249 merit list UDUsok. For this 2022/2023 admission session.

He went ahead to tell me that he knows many people who got Medicine with the ranges of 243, 261, 270, etc.
All these ranges are for catchment area and those who did the school's Predegree.
Mind you, the cut off for MBBS this year was 280 (merit), 270 (ELDS) and 250 (catchment).
The 243 am seeing up there is for Matric student if I may hazard a guess.
.
PS: am a 100 level medical student in the said institution

Lol. 92 is not impossible.

The problem is whether or not things will go according to plan.
