I applied for medicine in ABU and when their admission list came out my name was nowhere to be found. now I am doing ijmb in ABU,Kabba, Kogi State. I dont know what happened but it just came to my mind to check my admission status again this afternoon. so I checked and saw that I have been offered admission to study agriculture.
I am so confused right now because my people are all advising me to go for the course. apart from that I will do jamb again this year and am also doing ijmb. so I dont really know which decision to make.
guys I really need your advice.
Don't study what you never wanted to do in this life else you'll remain a miserable man for the rest of your life.

Yes you can.
Take it as a learning opportunity, no knowledge is wasted.

While at it, you can re-apply.

HONESTLY, its a two way thing...If studying medcine is your dream DO NOT LET IT BE DIVERTED,work harder and see that you get it, thats what dreams are for in the first place , to achieve them and not to run away from them. Face it head-on...I'm a graduate of agriculture, though my childhood choice of discipline was architecturing. So either way whether medcine or not just get an outstanding result and know what you want to do with the result. GOODLUCK

Re: I Am Offered Admission To Study Agric Instead Of Medicine.should I Go Or Not by Nobody: 11:23am On Feb 23, 2015
Well op I'd say choice, passion vs opportunity.

If medicine is what you'd like to study go 4 it cos it's ur passion n choice. Opportunity knocks once. I bet there are lots of people looking to be an agriculturist but here it is 4 u on a platter.

I know people who didn't even study agriculture and did white collar job but today they want to invest in agriculture. I personally know of someone who wanted acres of land 4 cattle rearing and farming. He's well educated and looking to help others by creating jobs for them.
It could be A blessing in disguise.
Agriculture is a bonus 4 u.

In the future you don't have to look 4 a job or get worried. You become ur own boss, u answer to no one, u work when u feel like it, it gives u opportunity to get ur hands in many things.
All you need is money, good piece of land , knowledge and business ideas.

I marvel when I see those people growing lettuce, spring onions n co on that lagos ibadan expressway.


If medicine is really ur passion go 4 it. Maybe after studying agriculture or see if u can run 2 programs simultaneously.

Bro , do not go .. If it was something related like MLS of pharmacy would have been another case.. stick with ijmb and ace jamb 2015 .. Do not accept the admission if you know your dropping it within 7 months .. its a big set back .. focus on jamb/post jamb 2015
bad advice, this same advice blocked me frm geting admission till after 7years. I leter grap undesire course when my mates were being mobilised for NYSC. @op agric is the best for you just go now b4 registration close!

People that studied Agriculture are not common in Nigeria and the country is seriously on a plan to diversify the economy. You may not know God's plan for you. Pray about it and let Him lead you. A friend of mind was supposed to study Medicine in Unilorin but was given Geology, his dad advised him to take that course. Eventually, he graduated with a First Class in Geology and now doing wonderfully well. So, God's plan might be different from yours. I would say you should take the Agric. and try to be the best. There are reasons for everything.

You can reject the admission and risk not getting admitted after re applying or you can accept the admission and embrace the course and come to love it. Another factor to be considered is your financial background.

I totally agree! I just believe if he's not lazy n very optimistic he would make it tru agriculture. And once he's well to do he can delve into other areas. Even oil n gas.

Getting admission into any university in Nigeria offering medicine is usually difficult, time consuming and stressful all in all.

You might have to take your jamb exams several times with extremely high-scores before any reasonable university would invite you to partake in their post-jamb examination which is usually hogwash considering the fact that most candidates accepted are those that water and bribe their way into full time admission.


I'd advice you to accept to study Agriculture which has been offered to you on a platter than spend wasteful years and funds trying to study medicine. I understand your reason for wanting to study medicine but truth be told, the glamour and zeal has been stripped away from medicine long time ago.

The current situation of the country has been redefined and you don't need to study a course with a high job prospect to be successful and so I'd advice you to accept their offer to study Agriculture which also has a high future prospectus and is vast.

shakrullah, I'll advise that you enrol for that course in the interim while you apply for medicine next year. It's best to be in a school environment than to sit down at home doing nothing.

pls what assurance do you have that you'll get medicine next year? You may not get medicine, so what do you do then? Stay at home for another one year? That'll be two wasted years, when you would have been nearing graduation in Agric Science.


Seconded.
