One basic truth in which i have noticed is that when you do a survey among various categories of students, WHETHER those in Primary School, Secondary School, SS3 students who are aspiring to go to higher institutions (Particularly the University), I discovered that most students "future ambition/choice of Study" is mostly MEDICINE, ENGINEERING OR A LAW COURSE..... Is it that these are the only set of courses which can be studied in higher institutions The truth remains that many of the ASPIRANTS have this "PRE-CONDITIONED MENTALITY" that these are the "Main deal" and money making courses. But Research has shown that Majority of the graduates from these courses usually end up falling back to their "talents OR the skills they have acquired".
The most Pathetic issue in this situation is that the higher institutions in Nigeria usually do not have enough space to accolade the "too-large" number of students applying for these courses,which makes the issue of "I was given another course which I never had interests in" a major complaints by the majority of students who are later offered admission.
WHAT THEN CAN BE SAID TO BE THE CAUSE OF THIS UNFORTUNATE SITUATION??
WHAT IS THE WAY FORWARD ON THIS ISSUE?

Why do students tend to lay emphasis on MEDICINE, ENGINEERING AND LAW COURSES
What can be said to be the major causes of this OCCURRENCE in our society today?

My dear Nairalanders, Who can give the reasons(aside unemployment) why most students don't end up working along the path of the course they studied in the higher institutions

Please who can answer this question??
