Stick with the one you love most cos they are almost the same sha,
Sticking with the one you love most will give you the innermost satisfaction while practising the profession, and that's when you can be at peace with yourself.

Do a research about this two courses the more and also put into consideration the university offering you this courses

Both of them are in one (MDCN) choose ur favourite

choose dentistry and specialize in oral and maxillofacial surgery

I believe there is more opportunities in medicine, so if I were you. Nah medicine, it the school oou

People are not the ones to make choice for you. If you don't know much about any of the courses, make research through the internet and individuals studying the courses to get more enlightened.

I would advise you to forget about the starting level, whether 100level or 200level, and focus more on other more important factors. The year is almost unimportant here since anything such as strike, loss of accreditation, or even failure/repetition of a year(though I don't wish you any of this) can make things worst. The most important factor to be considered is what your dream for choosing a medical course is(which of them will offer you the opportunity to achieve such dream?), which of them will give you the satisfaction you need? Other factors such as the school and its history with accreditation and strike, number admitted compared to MDCN quota for the school, pass rate in the school's MBBS/BDS exams could be considered.

In addition, you can ask this question in this thread on Nairaland: "The medical students and aspirants thread" to get more enlightened and properly guided by students in both fields.

Please what was ur jamb utme score that u were offered medicine pls and also does any1 from adamawa have a chance there?
