You can't matriculate twice in UI.

Although we were told during orientation that if you wish to apply to a another department in UI because you don't like your course.

You need to first terminate your admission, and then reapply through jamb.

If you apply and you already have an admission, they won't give you the admission even if you meet the cutoff.

Hello Friends and My bosses here...

This is seriously what I never espected...I have never even given a thought to failure all this while...All my struggles,sleepless nights(studying),prayers,mindset and even the very air I breathe everyday of my preparations were all channelled towards SUCCESS . Imagine,I was so convinced that I will get admission to study MEDICINE this year that I have bought my school bag and some other things.

When my JAMB results were released this year(2018),I was very happy and elated when I saw 303 as my score.I continued to study and prepare for the UI PostUTME with zest.When the results were released, I saw 73 as my PostUTME score and 74.375% as my aggregate score.I was sad and worried because my target score is not less than 90. When I remembered that UI cutoff mark for medicine last year(2017) was 71.88% , I kept my fire of hope burning...but not without serious prayers and fasting.

Now,the cutoff mark for medicine this year has been pegged at 76.5%, and as you can see, I am just like 3 marks away from the cutoff mark.Since yesterday when I saw the cutoff marks,I have not been able to sleep.It is very very painful.

But friends,I am not here to ask you to pity me...no no no....This is my 4th failure since I started to pursue MEDICINE and I have learnt to brace up and struggle harder after each failure,....No matter what people will say..... I am writing this to seek counsel and sincere directions on my next line of action because I believe that a problem shared is half solved.Now,my questions are :

1) Since my score is high enough to get another course, I am thinking of doing a COC to courses that will allow me cross to medicine in year two like biochemistry,human Nutrition and physiology....but I heard that those courses are not advertised on the COC.....Is it true ?

2) What other courses can I go for apart from the aforementioned ones ?

3) If after accepting any other course, can I stay in the university(UI) and write JAMB and PostUTME again in the same UI in 2019? .... Can I abandon my present course then and accept admission to study medicine in the same University of Ibadan?

4) If I should decide not to accept any admission UI will offer me whatsoever(because my passion is seriously tied to medicine), do you think (from experience) that I will be able to study well if I get a job and come back for jamb next year?...The job will take like 8hours of my time everyday.I cannot just stay at home studying for a whole year idle...an besides nobody is willing again to give me any money for anything until I enter school,not even for jamb....because my people have given up on me.

5) Also on the Job issue,I am planning to buy a laptop and an android phone from my savings,but I am thinking of how I can convert it into a good source of income. Please friends,I am alone in the world now... I need to survive. What genuine and profitable online business can I do in my part time to make ends meet ? ......I have heard that students can work online and earn a decent pay,but I don't know much about it.If you are into any one of them,I would like to have your contact...

Please save a soul today.!

Even though I am not given medicine. I will come back next year. I am just 5 points away from cut off. Even though I expected to score 90 in putme but my hope is dashed in big time. What a life! DrBESTJC, my situation is similar to yours. I just have to get a hold of myself and move on. While there is life, there is hope.

There were so many tricky question this year
I realized I have failed some so you see science guys need to be really careful when reading a question and selecting an answer
Diligent Aspirant for next year should take note of this
Example is this common one
Gas/flame for welding answer is oxyethyne or oxyacetylene flame
Not oxyethylene or oxygen or ethyne or ethylene
Note that ethylene is ethene while acetylene is ethyne

Correction of astigmatism the answer is cylindrical lens curved on one side

Longest bone in the human body is femur not vertebrae column .Unfortunately I failed this question it is tricky considering the fact that the whole bones in the vertebrae column is longer than a single femur bone.
But the question states longest *bone* (just a single bone) so automatically vertebrae column is out of the possible answers


There are so many questions like this but this is what I can remember
Guys that nabbed 80 or 80+ aggregate provide tips for students to learn from and realize their mistakes there is no need in keeping all ur tactics u have already gained admission

Some 25 things/secrets about successful MBBS aspirants and students

1. So many people told them to give up but they never listened to them.
Most have had series of failures.

2.They know that to gain admission 99% very very very very hard and smart work is required and 1% luck which is the grace of God.
They know that this 1% luck (grace of God) is what can separate them from myriads of brilliant and intelligent aspirants otherwise their their very very very very hard and smart work *may* be futile.

3. They never take any exam for granted be it waec jamb or post ume by ensuring they attain excellence with a very very high score as much as possible .
4. They also prepare for exams even during a festive day like Christmas, Easter, and Salah etc.

5. They have unexplainable passion for the course and this is their driving force.
6. They know their academic strength and weaknesses and don't go beyond their limits on that very moment they are writing their exam. Example, if they attempt a question and do not get it they move to the next question rather than trying to forcefully solve a question they don't know or can't solve.

7. They know how importance is seeking experience and seeking knowledge on how a particular exam will be before writing the exam themselves.

8. They know their academic limits. If a school is more competitive than another and they know they can't compete they go for a less competive accredited school where its safer and surer to gain admission. After all you receive the same mbbs degree as others.

9. They don't underestimate anyone no matter how young or how old. They know that everyone has equal chance of gaining admission provided if the person has seek experience or has experience in the game. More so, they know some people will be naturally lucky.

10. They don't ignore any information even trivial ones in the syllabus or textbook cos they know that the trivial information can decide their getting admission that year or not.
They know how precious is 1 jamb or post jamb mark or even 0.001 aggregate mark.

11. They start preparations early and gave their all to studying whether in tears, sweat, blood and money.

12. They have shed tears when they failed to beat cutoff, and during the course of their preparations they have wept secretly when they were alone.

13. They seek group chat, threads or tutorials for positive competitive atmosphere and to step up their game.

14. They know that for most people their eventual success was a series of failures that led to the road of success.

15. They can feel the pains of those who didn't make the MBBS cutoff because they have been there before. They have empathy.

16. They were always hopeful, never envied those who made it believing that one day their time will come.

17. Some have had to hustle hard to pay for their exam fees, materials, and other things necessary for their success in the exam.

18. They have solved lots of past questions and learned from their mistakes .
19. They have the appropriate past questions and textbooks.

20. They know that there is unpredictability in cutoffs it can go from 70 to 80something.
With this they prepare as much as possible to reach cutoff from 80% to be safe.
Cos they know MBBS aspirants are highly intelligent and u (reading this piece) is one of them . remember everyone has equal chance it boils down to ur experience, academic strength, luck (grace of God).

21.They have open mind and prepare their mind for the unexpected not to be taken aback in exams.

22. They know that there is something called luck but they *DON'T* depend on it. Because it risk their chances of gaining MBBS admission.
By this I mean that during preparations, they don't hope that in the exam hall they would guess any question this makes them work harder, study smarter, ask God for guidance during reading, master their text books and solve & learn from all questions they failed in the past questions.
During the exam, they can guess the answer but they try as much as possible during their preparations to prevent guessing answers or minimize the answers they would guess as much as possible in the exam. They don't take anything by chance.

Luck in this case is a gift from God the fact that u worked hard doesn't mean He will give it to u. He can give it to anyone. U see those guys who scored 88, 89, and 90 had this luck. They must have guessed at least 5 answers correctly or even guess 4 correct answers out of 5 to reach that score (88%89%, and 90%) when others will have guessed those 5 questions and fail all or manage to score 1. U see this is when God's grace comes into play.

Pray for luck but never do the mistake of hoping in luck when seeking MBBS admission. Everything is in ur control not in fate. Do your part and let God do His.

23. They also have this secret that post jamb score has a higher value than jamb score. They will never tell u this.
So even if they score very high in jamb they make sure that they score even higher in post jamb. Because someone who scored less in jamb may score higher in post jamb and beat them in aggregate.
Consider this scores 310 jamb + 70 pume aggregate 73.75
Consider this also 300 jamb + 80 pume aggregate 77.5
So u can see they never joke with post utme exam in as much as they don't joke with jamb. Remember a very high jamb score is the foundation for success but if u don't score high in jamb never give up, give ur best shot in pume.

24. They know their success was from God alone and not by their smartness or hardwork.

25. They know it was not yet time to quit they gave in their all holding these three words quote "never give up".
Don't give up on your dreams God has the best plan for u and u will naturally know when it's time to quit but the characters u have developed through the years will forever be with u.

This vision is for a future time. It describes the end, and it will be fulfilled. If it seems slow in coming, wait patiently, for it will surely take place. It will not be delayed. Hab.2:3

For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Jer 29:11


But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint. Isa 40:31

Finally, every one has their own unique path to success let God be ur guide, He will lead u safe and through.
