No course is easy to study as each course has its challenges. Basically, a medical student studies a medical course in the University. Some of the common medical courses in Nigeria Universities include Medicine and Surgery, Dentistry, Medical Laboratory Science, Physiotherapy, Nursing, Anatomy, Physiology and so on.I am a medical student currently studying Medical Laboratory Science in University of Ilorin and below are some of the challenges I (and most medical students) face;

1. High Cost Of Medical Textbooks.

Medical textbooks are quite expensive, especially the advanced ones. Majority of these textbooks are imported (as they are not written by Nigerians) and I think this contributes to the high cost (exchange rates). Not only are these textbooks expensive, but they are also voluminous and takes time to read.

2. High Cost Of Studying.

Medical courses are more expensive to study when compared to some other courses in the Nigerian Universities. Cost of laboratory practical manuals, laboratory practical fees, researches and so on contributes to the high cost of studying Medical courses. Laboratory practicals are important parts of medical courses because they enable students to understand complicated concepts better.

3. Long Duration of Study.

Most people will agree with me that medical courses have one of the longest duration of Study in Nigerian Universities. This is necessary to make students master the courses well inorder to avoid costly mistakes (that can claim human lives). To study medical courses, one must be ready to dedicate his/her time. Also, at the end of normal duration of Study, medical students undergo one year of internship before going for National Youth Service Corps (NYSC)
CONCLUSION;
As I earlier noted, no course is easy to study in the University as every course has its challenges. Medical courses on the other hand have more challenges due to how complicated and hard it is (human lives are involved). This is not to scare anyone but rather to make you have a glimpse of the challenges medical students face.
