sammiekyle:
pls can some1 enlighten me abt DE.. lyk for example.. we dont use CGPA in physiotherapy in oau.. i am planning to do DE to ui medicine once i am through.. aw will i know if i am eligible... also wat kind of exams do they do in jamb and post utme.. is it the same chem bio and phy or some other subjects... pls enlighten me as i need to make preparations
(we dont use CGPA in physiotherapy in oau.) i dont know what you mean by this statement. But if you want to come in to ui through DE make sure atleast you av second class upper, Ui DE candidates writes no exam, your fate will be decided using your Alevel/ Degree/ND/ NCE Grade and your O/level grade. So having more A's in your o/level will be an added advantage

Ajet001,thanks for the info,though i still have my reservation concerning those ones who i believe will definitely have spaces yet are not on coc,i just pray my siblings are not unjustly treated.if ui didnt convince me enough i will surely tip the media to poke around a little atleast to ruffle some feather,someone must feel my pain.though i have always believe in ui transparency unlike the jamb twitter handler who has been elusive.i hope we have more parent and guardian on this forum we need to ask some question when the time come,a senior colleague in troyka holding in lagos started the unilag protest.
we will see the number of candidates admitted into each Dept wen the list comes out then we compare to the quota. I find it hard to believe that German, yoruba, archeology, anthropology, edu management, philosophy, psychology and early childhood education department has been filled up hence there refusal to advertise for coc

Based on these sir... U said one can always reapply for a course.... Does it mean one can matriculate twice...


Example
Bola applied for mbbs was given physiology can she reapply for mbbs d next year??
yes reapply for mbbs and if you meet up with the cutoff then you terminate physiology admission before clearance

Just as my boss Pes13 has said, sometimes, things don't go the way you planned it to be.

Sometimes you don't get some things on a platter of gold. You have to go through disappointment, hard work, failure, tears and determination to lay your hands on actualizing your dreams.

What you're about to read is probably the longest message I have ever typed so far in life. Its very very lengthy due to the number of years involved and my wish to share some very personal details. But I assure you its worth reading.

If things went the way I planned, I would probably be a final year Medicine and surgery student at OAU. However, the plan never worked out like that.

From the disappointment of 2011 admission at oau (medicine) and lautech (medicine), I pressed on in 2012, with a jamb score of 242, applying to lautech (anatomy) and futa (biochemistry). I had 59% and 68% respectively, and was subsequently admitted to futa on supplementary list.

This never quenched my ambition to become a practitioner in the medical field. Together with some of my friends then in futa, I picked up 2013 jamb form, scoring 250 with Uniben (Medicine) as my school of choice. I had 66% in the postume and was subsequently admitted for Biochemistry instead. I declined the admission, while a friend of mine was admitted to oau to study medical rehabilitation (physiotherapy).

I moved on to 200L in Futa, still hurting from 2 failed admission attempts at my desired ambition. I went ahead to pick the 2014 jamb form, it was my first time doing jamb on computer. I had a disappointing 230. Based on the advice of a friend, I decided to choose Dentistry, also at Uniben. I had 59% in the postume and was subsequently admitted to study plant science and biotechnology. I smiled at myself the day I checked that admission status. I closed my eyes and shed my tears inside. That same year, a classmate of mine in futa gained admission to study medicine at UI. He's going to 400L now.

I moved to 300L in Futa, and in the year 2015, I decided not to take the jamb form, due to some factors, most of which were personal. Maybe I was discouraged by past failures and inability to break even.

2016 was the darkest and most traumatic of my admission experience. I was already in 400Level. I bought the jamb form with my own money (For the first time) during late registration. It cost me 10 thousand naira.
When I got the date for my exam, it was 1st march, 2016. I was scheduled to also have two first semester exams (BCH 415 and BCH 411) on that same day. To worsen the matter, I couldn't get the center in futa. I was to write in Oau cloud computing auditorium.
I used my influence to persuade my exam officer, and she was able to move only one out of the two papers to the previous day (29th Feb). So, I wrote BCH 415 and 405 on that Monday. I finished around 6:15pm and immediately found my way to north gate to get a bus to Ife. I stayed with my former classmate in faj hall overnight where I had to revise my subject combination, simultaneously reading BCH 411, hoping that I would be able to get to akure before 12pm, the time for the exam.
On the exam date, due to delays and accreditation, the exam that was supposed to start 9:30 started 10:15. We were given 2hrs 45mins. I didn't use up to 1hr 30 mins. I answered all my questions and submitted. Immediately I ran to get a bus to akure but I couldn't get one on time, by the time I got to school, the exam had been written.

That's an automatic carryover, according to school rules.

Well, I braced myself, and had to lie to my parents when the result came out that I missed the exam because the time was changed without me knowing.

About 5 days later, jamb released the results and I found myself staring at 207.
I had 38 in chemistry. The same chemistry that I had never scored below 66.
I felt sad but at the same time happy because I chose UI for dentistry. And for UI, minimum of 200 in jamb qualifies you to wrote postume. I was determined to hit as high as possible in the postume before the minister of education announced cancellation of postume. My hopes were dashed big time.
I applied for the screening last year. I have a very decent o'level and it was able to raise my aggregate to 64.208 but My woes were further compounded when UI released cutoff marks and dentistry was 64.29

I have never cried so much in my life like I did that day.

I decided to put an end to the serial disappointments about my admission. I sealed my mind to any other attempt to become a dentist. Perhaps it wasn't meant for me.

2017 came. I Started my final year in futa. But my friends (the oau guy and another friend in unn 400L medicine) kept persuading me to apply for jamb. For where? The persuasion fell on deaf ears. These guys raised money and sent it to me to pick the form. At that point, I couldn't say no. I picked UI again for dentistry. Jamb came after first semester exams. I wrote it in futa center and I had 295, scoring 76 in the chemistry I had 38 in 2016.

The rest is history.

Today, Monday, 6th November,2017 , between 3:30 and 5:30pm, to the glory of God, I wrote my last examination as a student of biochemistry, Futa, and I hope to resume to the university of Ibadan next year by God's grace.

If I were to pick 3 things that brought me this far, I'd choose
1. God's grace
2. Determination and persistence.
3. Supportive and encouraging friends.

If by any way, you've been disappointed by anything in life, I can vouch for these three things. Once you have them, they'll get you to your dreams.

another piece of advice for aspirants that didn't reach cutoff/ get their course by any means, anything you get right now, please enrol and start. You can always reapply for your desired course later on.


Thank you for reading.
God bless you.
what a wonderful testimony so so inspiring truly it is the hammer of persistence that drives the nail of success. boss I doff my hat and take a bow cc:Samsonyte see something
