Advice On Career Choice: I Want A Medical Career But He Wants Computer Science. by Ade4dayo70(m): 12:21pm On Dec 16, 2015
Am a student of science who loves Medical Sciences. I discovered myself being more comfy, more inquisitive and doing so well in Medical aspect of science. I do perform so well mostly in Biology examinations even without a series of revision before the exam day, I made the best of the subject while in school. I love chemistry too but requires a little revision before its exam. I have no flair for Computer Science as a career though I went for a preliminary training after leaving secondary school which made me so good in Graphic Designing. Since I have a little knowledge about computer, my elder brother who is a graduate of Accounting from Obafemi Awolowo University, suggested he would prefer me investing my career in Computer Science. Am about to register for another Jamb after the unfavoured admission process in OAU this year.

Pls for God's sake, advice me on which career to choose. I will so much appreciate your motivating advice on this matter

I suggest you ask him why he prefers Computer Science.
Meanwhile, since you like Medicine, why not talk it over with him and give hime reasons why you prefer it to computer science.
But looking at what is going on in the country, i think Medicine is still better since their level of unemployment is quite lower compared to computer scientist and coincidentally, it happens that you also have flare for Medicine. So go for it as i wish you well......dont forget o....that admission in medicine is still a problem so put Computer Science under Polytechnic option incase admission in Med Surge fails, atleast you can have something to fall back. even if you have your ND b4 getting your Med Surge admission, its not bad.......my cent anyway

I really appreciate you @Nwogeh... yes I know the coarse of admission into Medicine, so i decide to choose Pharmacy which is likely for me to change directly to Medicine after my 100L. I can't choose computer science because of the subject combination (English, Biology, Chemistry and Physics). I did it that way in the last jamb registration but was unable to write the post utme of Yabatech which I chosed for computer because Maths must be included instead of Biology. I would have loved having a ND in computer science but the issue is complicated now.
