Medicine is still six years. In developed countries one studies basic sciences for four years before entering any of the core health professions. This is good but it's nothing new, and it's only a matter of time before other health professions start the same thing. NUC working with NMA. I hope they won't be biased when it comes to other health professions. Why not simply make it four years of basic sciences for every health profession? Why is NIGERIA SO BACKWARD? I know what is happening here, but that's so blind of the actors. 1 Like |

dicefrost: I agree totally with you.8 years with adequate facilities is what medical schools need in Nigeria. NUC is now introducing into medical studies what they did to the law profession; that is adding more years to study the course and also increase the cost of studying the course in question. The above move has tended to give an elitist bent to the study of law as only the rich or those who can borrow can afford study law. I pray this policy does not lead to students shunning the study of Medcine and Surgery and in the long term lead to dearth of Medical Doctors in the country. 1 Like |

SycophanticGoat:what do you mean those nurses, lab scientists will be asking for the same salary scale? Even with what Doctors earn, they are never satisfied and they still want to do the work of a Medical Lab Scientist. |

Bimpss: [size=28pt]Which develop country are you talking about. The USA should remove that requirement because children in the USA dont need to do that, they already have the brain like most countries of the world to go straight to Medical school. It is a waste of time for children in the USA. The rest of the world go directly to medical school to spend 7 years. if you were a child, will you want to waste your time and go an study, a useless course first, borrowing money then go into medical school. After owning, No.. the USA system is not good, they need to change it. i will assume that is the reason, that carson, been a doctor was running. The rest of the world go directly to medical school from high school. they dont waste their children times. just because someone want you to borrow money. why will anyone go and study an irrelevant course first. people send their children to europe leaving the USA because of this. Youngman, NUC chairman will be remove, if such happen. [/size] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6byMnG__p9g 3 Likes 1 Share |

hmm, thank God i left med school over 10 years ago...bu then 10 years is too long, what of those that have resits or repeats in various classes, going at this rate most doctors won't go for NYSC ,most would have been well over 30 years by the time they graduate. |

dagr8: Very flawed reason. In most of Western Europe, you are interviewed by a medical panel before gaining admission. The interview usually has little to do with academic ability. You will have already shown that via top grades/relevant screening exams from your record to be called for interview. The interview seeks to know your motivation, your proof of commitment to medicine through volunteer work in hospitals, nursing homes AND to see that you're a well-rounded & psychologically sound person. A kind of humanitarianism too. Because by the age of 22 or so, you will be facing life & death situations as a house officer. Around 3am in the morning sometimes. Well-rounded as in having people skills, possibly well-travelled, balanced view of life, respect for people of various creeds and races, and your hobbies. The difference between one admitted And one not admitted could be that the admitted one learnt a foreign language to a good level. A thing a doctor might need having to deal with many people. Or one who spent summer holiday in a foreign hospital and the other didn't. One who has read many volumes of say French/German novels (and you're British for example). Indicates interest in people & other cultures. Then leadership skills help too. Maybe as captain of your school Karate, football, netball or whatever team. Or in fact just having extracurricular activities that enable you to mix with people. Being just a book worm isn't enough. The system can be set up to select those genuinely interested in Medicine & prevent money changing hands. 2 Likes 1 Share |
