The Nigerian University Regulatory Body, NUC (National Universities Commission) have just announced that prospective medical students will now spend 11 years in the university. The breakdown is 4 years studying Basic sciences + 7 years in Medical school. This is big deviation from the current 7 years (6 years Studies + 1 year work experience) in University. So what are the options: Ghana – 6 years South Africa – 6 years UK – 5 years US – 8 years (4 years First Degree + 4 years Medical School) So Nigerians seem to have the worst deal of all. It would be interesting to see how this would work out. What are your thoughts? Read more here

It's just a ploy to keep the profession lean. Sad. |

Perhaps they want better trained professionals but 11 years is very long. It doesn't even include Housemanship. |

THUNDER4real: Their children will definitely study Medicine abroad. It feels like so many policies are not made with the Masses best interest... |

The regulatory system ain't bad tho, infact it's a welcome development hence our students in the medical field would compete favourably with their foreign counterparts...but the 11years is dam much  , when do they expect the students to finish secondary school?...oga seun and lalasticlala i think this is fp worthy. |
