FlordFlorez:
What if i chose rad and later decided to change it to mls, will i stil have hope at Unn?

I don't Understand
To Change at the School Level or JAMB Level??

FlordFlorez:
Thank God! The other day, sum1 was telling me dat rad needs math instead of che. That means i will choose radiography for the new jamb and MLS for the DE. But i dont knw if u knw anytin abt the 2course. Maybe u shuld enlighten me more abt them and advice which to choose for my Jamb. Thanks in anticipation.

You don't need Maths. If you try putting Maths you Might Lose the Admission.
Everything depends on you.
But for JAMB and DE, MLS is Easier to Enter because their Admission Quota/Slot is Higher than Radiography.
But in all,its Basically The Same Exam so just Read Hard.

FlordFlorez:
Wow! This year's radiography's cutoff is wide. I pray it get lesser next year. Again, do jamb subject combination for MLS (i.e Che, Bio, Phy & Eng) same as rad?

Same for all Medical Related courses.

FlordFlorez:
Thank u very much. But im thinking of choosing radiography for the utme. I hope the cut off is same as MLS since they are both in the same faculty.

Cutoff Mark is based on General Performance for that particular Year. Over the Years,MLS and Radiography share Almost the same Cutoff Mark. While Nursing Always had the Highest, Except this Year that Radiography Cutoff was 290 while MLS was 268 and Nursing was Around 278+
So it depends on General Performance.

FlordFlorez:
I want to choose Unn for both DE and UTME and also for same course (MLS), hope it won't affect me in anyway? If it would, plz advice me.

It won't Affect anything since UTME and DE are Different Pathways to Gain Admission.
Rather, Sitting for JAMB and DE will Increase your Chance.

Scholar212:
I am speaking based on my experience from my Alma mata Uniben. All DE students I know before, during and after my set were all BSC and HND holders.

Like ehh...that was why i said he wasn't Entirely Correct.

Mandeyy:
It's not slim. OND, SLT is widely accepted for DE into medical laboratory science. However, he should take UTME as well to stand a better chance. This is because the number of DE candidates with OND, SLT is always higher. He should also apply to a state university. If he's in the East, he should apply to UNN. With 270 in its post-DE screening, he'll be offered DE admission into medical laboratory science. Post-DE screening is taken in September or October at the main UNN campus. It's also easy to get 270 in the post- DE screening. Post-UTME screening is for JAMBites while post-DE is for DE candidates.

You are not Entirely correct because Most DE in my Class are not SLT.
But your Advice is Sound.

Go back to your Department and Find out.

qleap2all:
That's how they are distrupting the system. When has the governor suddenly becomes admission officer or the University senate.
ABU is far better than BSU

He can Order the School to give Admission.

Tajmahal1000:
Ortom, as useless as ever! From distributing wheel barrow as ‘empowerment item’, owing several months of salaries, and practically abandoning all the roads in Makurdi to go terribly bad, but got re-elected using the Fulani herdsmen imbroglio...

How could a Governor give DIRECTIVES to a University to grant admission to anyone? Why usurp the function of the Academic Office/Director, Admission Officer, and Senate of the University?

This is another thoughtless “publicity stunt” by the irredeemably useless Ortom!

A lot of our politicians are incurably unintelligent!

Do you know the hierarchy in Nigerian Universities??
Go and Find out.
He has the Right to Direct the School to give Admission.

Nobody wants to Talk about UNN..
Sometimes i wonder if that School is a Federal University.

I thought ABU has Offered her Admission to Study Medicine.

Snowale:
Lie, Medical Doctors are more employable Dentists, meanwhile as a medical doctor, you can also take an 8 month course to be a dentist, but a dentist can't specialize outside his field. Counting the department under MBBS, they are more than 15, but dentistry is just dental radiology, dental surgery etc less than 6 departments

I don't Know if it is Deliberate but i wonder how we Come online to Say things that we are not Sure. How Many courses are Dentistry not Offering in Medicine. 18 Months will Allow you to Switch from Dentistry to Medicine while 3 Years Training will Allow you to Switch from Medicine to Dentistry.
Dentist are Also Doctors,They Command the Same Respect as Doctors. So the Comparison is Uncalled for.
The OP should just go for what he wants.

BiggyB242:
So with a score of 300+ in the almighty jamb medicine still non sure. When you go to a hospital as a patient do you find out the school the doctor did graduate from?

The advice I give to young folks what matter most is your grade , it is therefore advisable to go to a school that will give less stress. I have a very brilliant friend who choose medicine but was given vet.medicine in ABU he struggling after graduation because the course isn't sellable in Nigeria. I know if he had choose Uniben even Abraka he would have being given medicine as surgery. I also have a friend who struggles academically who went to Abraka to study medicine as I speak he is a flying doctor in the military.

What matter most is your course of study and grade. During employment what the interviewer wants to know is your course of study and grade not how strict your school or professors where. #BeWise

I understand your point but School Matters sometimes. You can't compare Medicine in First Generation Universities to Others.

The only thing holding me: No woman to marry.

Every woman who is close to what I want is marred by her religious beliefs. Once I tell them I am non religious or a deist, they zoom off.

Do we have free thinking ladies in this part of the world?

Nope

Ekpeitut:


On what grounds if I may ask? Do you know in saner climes the schools tumble over each other to admit high performing students? Ground breaking researches and ideas are hatched in the minds of these little ones. We always complain of brain drain in our educational system yet we celebrate mediocrity and shun talents. Imagine what you're saying! SMHID!

SMHID - Shaking my head in disgust

How is 288 Average a High Score.
In UNN she will be Denied Admission. Those with 310 Average are Still begging for Admission into Medicine.
Her JAMB Score is Good but she didn't do well in ABU Postume.

crazygod:

Exactly. Perhaps the school feels she's too young.

I think 16 is the Minimum age to Gain Admission.

crazygod:
I guess nobody is stating the obvious. She was probably denied because of her age. Some institutions have age limit for admission

She is 16.

celeiyke:


post link

There is no Link bro.
UNN doesn't Disclose Her Cutoff Mark Except you go to the Faculty and get it.
The Last time the School Made her Cutoff Mark Public was 2015.
If you want to Confirm Medicine Cutoff Mark Ask any UNN Student.

Ekpeitut:
Such a brilliant girl. If you think scoring 6 A1s is beans, show us your WAEC and NECO results.

She should just scout for scholarships in the UK, US she will definitely get something.

She is Brilliant doesn't mean she can't be denied Admission.They Offered her Anatomy sef. If na UNN you will not see Soil Science.
The High Average will just waste.

celeiyke:


shut ur crap up when u have nothing to say. which unn cuts 310? oga fear God

You haven't Seen anything yet.
Cutoff Mark for Medicine is around 326..
310 cannot Give anyone Medicine in UNN Except the person is From ELD.

Emmaxy9:


Oga read what I wrote. UNN doesn't disclose their cut off marks publicly. If you see the real one, its either bloggers who are inside or people who really know the stuff.

Last time UNN Made her Cutoff Mark Public was 2015.

Sirjamo:
This thing is prevalent in every region of this country, I have not seen or heard of any Mohammed or Usman or Adewale that graduate from UNN or any other university in SE or SS. North and SW are even better in this regards. I expect barrage of insults on this but the truth is the truth, it has no any other name!!!!

You have not seen doesn't Mean they are not there.
Even in my Class i have Muslims(Yoruba and Hausa).

mujibson:

As in ehn! The people that will be amazed with this are those that have written jamb for a very long time, the time when you sweat before you have 200 in jamb. Candidates are scoring very high in jamb this days. A time is coming when 320+ will be barely enough for some competitive course self ....

Yea

mujibson:


I know you can't think, let me just help you ..

Abu just like UI does not use O-level in calculating composite, what is required is just minimum of credit in all her relevant subjects.. So having A's is not an advantage here.

Who told you Abu pegged her MBBS cut off at 250? Where did you see that? How on earth does it sound okay to your stinking brain that school of Abu calibre will fix 250 as cut off for Medicine? Name any federal university that will admit candidates with 250 average for MBBS?

Her 302 jamb score and 274 putme score gives her an average of 288 ( good but not enough for medicine). Candidates with higher average would have been given on merit.

Do you even know UI MBBS minimum cutoff is 78.87( this is equivalent to 315.48). Do you know Unilag cut off is 328?. Are you aware UNN cutoff for Medicine is 326? Do you know that of OAU is in same range 315+?

Those scores are the least candidates can have in order to be considered for MBBS in those schools. Do you think Abu should be different? Would you have cried foul if the girl had chosen those schools and had that kind of average( 288)?

Look, like my friend will say, MBBS is no more for the brilliant ones it's for the genius. She should even be thankful she's given Human Anatomy. Some schools will not even consider her.

If you think 300+ is something so difficult to get like before, then you are still living in oblivion.

I'll like to let you know that I had 318 jamb score and 290 putme during my time. Applied and was given Civil engineering in this same Abu. I thought it was very high until we resumed. There are lot of dudes with higher average. Just civil engineering o, now how do you expect MBBS class to be? ......

In short, the girl tried but it's not enough for MBBS.

Some people will Not Understand,what you Said is the Pure Truth.
1st Generation Universities Cuttoff Mark for Medicine is Very High.
In UNN 311 Average no even See admission for Merit Muchless some with 288 Average.

Jman06:
Of course anybody can own a pharmacy but such pharmacy must be licensed by a qualified pharmacist who is also expected to be present at all times as superintendent pharmacist to control drug dispensing.

Some people might think that this is Nigeria and so anybody can do anything. But when PCN seals your shop and all the drugs get expired, you'll count your losses and maybe then you'll realize that following the simple legal procedure doesn't hurt.

Well that was what i said.
To Meet a Certified Pharmacist.

Snowale:
No she can't. she, a degree holder in Nursing, can only own a meternity clinic, though the maternity clinic wouldn't be licenced to do some advance treatment, such treatments can only be permitted in the clinic, if a medical doctor is employed.

A Nurse can own a Pharmacy.
Meet any Certified Pharmacist,He/she will Guide you.

darfay:



The question is are they sought-after?

They are,but not close to Medicine etal.
To me,Sought After courses are Courses that have Applicants that are More than the Carrying Capacity of the Courses.

darfay:
Agriculture science is sort after... You need your head examined

Agriculture is a Very Nice course. But not All sha
Faculty of Agriculture in My School,i would recommend Agricultural Economics,Food Science and Technology,Home Science, Nutrition and Dietitics.
These are the 3 courses that are Really Good to Study under Agriculture.

Whitefowl:
I think one can make the most of whatever course they studied.
Studying a 'most sought after' course is good; it doesn't exactly guarantee food on your plate tho.

It guarantees to an Extent

4th Year?
You are Almost Through sef.
Sit for JAMB and Continue your Optometry.If Medicine Works Out Fine,if it doesn't then you can Come back as DE
I had a Friend that sat for JAMB From First yr in MCB until 3rd Year. He Later Got Medicine while in Final Year. Finshed His Degree in MCB and Crossed Over to College of Medicine.

Just Go for what Makes you Happy.
