I was in your shoes 8years ago, so I am talking from personal experience. I left medical school for programming and today is one of the best move I made in life.


GO FOR PROGRAMMING

Just know it won't be easy but being focused will help you.

Make sure you find a mentor who is an experienced programmer that will direct you in your learning process and help you move faster or find a bootcamp to join online.

Please don't learn alone on your own so you won't waste time and get distracted.


You can as well enrol for Bsc. Computer science in NOUN while you are getting the programming skills and experience.

Good luck.
That's why i want to use the money to enroll in IT school to meet with other programmers to share ideas together so that i won't learn alone

WoundedLamb:
OP, do you have any knowledge of programming? Do you already know what it entails? If not, I suggest you study it for a couple of weeks to know if it's a dream you can drop another for. I wouldn't want you to be frustrated half-way and lose it all. Like someone already said, programmers aren't usually money oriented. They do it cause it's thier passion/fun. Problem analysis and solution design, algorithm, etc. can be very complex and developers spend a good deal of thier time dedicated to looking for solutions. This affects thier social life but they're not complaining. They don't even notice it cause they're overly passionate. The question is, are you?
maybe I should study it first and see if I'm ready for it. Thanks so much

Finished university 2012, 5 years later no meaningful employment.
One day i figured out that my B.Eng certificate was no longer useful, dumped it and started programming from scratch, watching Youtube and free courses from coursera
Started coding at 2017 (27 years) and I have never looked back.

You already have the funds, it makes it easy for you
hmm u can imagine if u have being coding earlier instead of wasting your time in school

I believe I am in the position to point you in the right direction being a medical laboratory science student in his finals who has a side gig in IT.

The big question is what do you want to do with Medical Laboratory science??
Where do you see yourself in the next 10 years??

Answers to the above questions will go a long way in allowing you make good decision.


Medical laboratory science is becoming saturated day by day. The well paying Jobs are federal government Jobs. Private practice is an obstacle that takes some level of tenacity to overcome. I will not sugarcoat things for you, the profession is a shadow of itself.

Interns payment is being debated, privatisation of federal hospital laboratory is being considered. The financial proceeds from the profession is getting dim day by day.

If you don't have a solid plan on what to do with the profession, and you depend on government for Job ( you don't have connections) , you are on a long thing. Professional courses which majority view as a sure banker to employment is no longer sure again oo.




IT is the new oil, but reward from this takes some level of skills and time, web is saturated ( from my perspective). Search out for other areas of IT.




As some has said, you can learn programming simultaneously with schooling, which I am in support of. But medical laboratory is hectic to be combined with a thorough programming endeavor.

Final take home, as a lab technician, you should have worked under few scientists. Which of them do you want to become??
none sir, the few ones i see and envy a little bit works for federal government and someone like me that i don't have connections. I might end up earning peanut in a private organization. That's why i want to dedicate 5yrs of my life learning programming, and as for motivation, if i think about the fact that i can't face my parent to tell them, i wasted their money, will always motivate to make it in programming, at least if i make it and I'm getting jobs, and later tell them i used the money to study programming and getting paid for it, they won't feel disappointed.
CareerShould I Sacrifice My Laboratory Technician Career For Programming ? by bercarray(op): 4:33pm On May 17, 2021
Hello nairalanders, I'm working currently as a laboratory technician, but my parents wants me to further more for medical laboratory science course in university.

Seeing the way technology is moving, I've decided to go into IT, which is the reason i want to use the money I'm supposed to use to study MLS to go into programming, instead of using 5yrs studying MLS, that's even if ASUU did not extend it to 6 or 7years, i want to dedicate this 5-6yrs of my life into programming( web development and other parts of programming maybe application software development also).

I've also decided to go to teach myself first online, and later go to IT school for certificate and meeting with other IT gurus sake so as to gain from them.

So is programming worth sacrificing this career for? Please advise.

Programming is not saturated o. It is just saturated with a group of people who all know the same thing. Most of what gives money in programming isnt known or learnt.
like what and what? And also are you a programmer yourself?

Use the medical laboratory science to move yourself abroad then you can learn programming once you are out of the country.
Aiit, but the salary range for mls isn't that encouraging, your savings would have finished settling bills. Or is there anyway i can do that, without big money being involved sir

my heart is with programming, and I'm willing to work hard for it, knowing what is at stake, knowing fully well that my parents won't take it lightly with me if i don't succeed in it, thinking about that only should be my motivation for making working hard in if i study the programing.

RomanceRe: In This Economy, Can You Marry Someone Who Earns 60k Monthly? - Nigerians React by bercarray(m): 1:56pm On May 06, 2021
If not for the way things are been done, we've been made to believe that fathers pay every single bill in the house, getting married with 60k isn't bad, provided my wife will be working too, and also we'll be working towards increasing our income too along the line, because along the line responsibilities will come; kids, school fees and all. But as it is now that it's the men that will take care of everything, even if madam dey work, they will keep their money saying father should provide, don't even try to settle with that amount. But if it's both parties that are contributing I see nothing wrong in that.

You met a married man and u knew he was a married man but u still went ahead to say yes to him just because he told u his wife abroad can't disturb you. I believe money would have made you open your legs for him, because I'm very sure he was not the only one disturbing you as at that time.
When you were about to lay on his bed too, u didn't call on Nigerians oo or foreign bodies but now that it has happened you are calling on Nigerians. Nigerians wey our own problem sef pass your own.

ThisCouldBeUs:
How did she contradict herself? Several men out will prefer to chase ladies upandan with empty pocket. Imagine you can't feed yourself and you are dedicating 80% of your thoughts to "how to woo a girl". Head dey pain you.
sorry o, did you even read the title at all? it says that the woman was penniless after the divorce which means that the guy has money and was spending on the lady, but soon after the divorce the lady became penniless. So what's this you are now saying about guys chasing girls when they don't have money. Is that what the topic is all about or can't u read?, this is even blossom chukwujekwu we are talking about.

Also the lady said in the video that she's happy and she can get whatever she wants herself and later said being alone sucks, if u are actually happy right now, why are u saying being alone sucks again. isn't that contradictory?. I bet u didn't watch the video. All these nairaland airtel basics people sef, if u don't have data to watch video ask for the summary of the video before commenting.

Then leave her and find someone else. But if u think u should continue the relationship with u guys keeping secrets, then plenty of tears awaits u to be shed o
