TWoods: It would be near impossible to get into any good medical school in the US as an international student. Best option, go for a 4 year premed then find an American to marry, legitimately. After that, the world is your oyster. . Hmmm,quite an interesting advice you got there. It'll be put into consideration. Thank you. |

[quote author=happyday post=55623160]Hi! Seasons greetings.
Anywhere in the world, Medicine and cheap don't go in the same sentence. Anywhere you go to in the world to study Medicine, they see you (an Int'l student) as a cash cow. You need all the money you can get. Even native Americans take crazy loans for their kids to study Medicine, with the hope that the money they make later will pay back those loans. A pre-med program is a standard four-year degree, during which you satisfy the requirements to get into a Medical school. In the US, you can study Biochem, Math, even Philosophy; as long as you're able to satisfy the app requirements during those four years, you're good.
So, your options: -
- Apply for the Federal Govt scholarship to study Medicine abroad (if it's still active). OR - Find someone with a deep cash pocket to pay. In the US, it's 4 years of pre-med, and then 4 years of Med school. Thereafter, you might offset the costs, if you'll be getting a PhD in clinical research, which would then be free. But expect no free money for the first 8 years. In Ukraine or Russia, it's six years of Med school, right after O'level. OR - Sit down and work really hard on your O'level courses. Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Math, English. Read until you get it. Turn off Facebook. Resist cramming. Take UTME, post-UTME, and get into a top Med school in Nigeria. E.g. UI, UNIBEN, OAU, UNILORIN. They don't have great Int'l standings, but for now, they're the best we've got. Of course, work hard, and complete your med school in any of those.
Then, if you think of practicing abroad, UK is easier than US.
Even if you stay in Nigeria, work on option 3, make enough money to send your kids to those Harvard, Yale, Stanford Med schools.
Cheers!. [quote]Thanks for your reply but I'm sure u'll agree with me that getting into those Nigerian universities you mentioned isn't an all easy thing to do. Being knowledgeable on those subjects has almost never been a priority to those in charge of admitting students. Take this from someone who was denied admission into his own state university despite passing the cut off mark. I wasn't even in any other released departmental list. It was quite painful but I considered other options. I had to,but they didn't work out too. I'm sure there are others who have gone through worse but sincerely speaking I don't feel motivated to study in Nigeria anymore. I don't know how it will happen considering finances and other necessities but it definitely will. |

Good afternoon people and a Happy Easter Celebration to you. My humble request is pretty simple. I want to travel out to study Medicine preferably in the USA and I'd love anyone who's currently doing so to explain the process. How long do I need to do a pre-med program,one month,one year or do I need to do full four years before starting as a Medical student? Pls I'd love to save some costs too and if u know of cheap universities either in the USA or any other country(that is safe to study in),don't hesitate to list them down. Thanks in advance for your replies. |

I might not currently be as happy as Efe's fans are but I indeed am happy for him. What we should all pray for is for him to make good use of the money(u know as money dey shark sometimes) and invest it well in genuinely profitable businesses. Right now lots of people might want to invest in him unknowingly to him that they wanna just make use of his limelight. He should work on his rap craft so at least if things go wrong,his talent will speak for him. TeamTBoss,we tried yes and all thanks to GOD for enriching our pockets to vote for justice and love. Our girl is a star already(if I'm right she and Efe are the only ones to get CASH from this show). Thanks to TBoss' haters,u helped us love her more,u taught us there's no limitation to love. Thank u very much but get ready to see and hear a lot of achievements from the BOSS LADY. U either keep hating/disliking(whatever you call it) or u can start making an effort to love her. I advice you take the latter. She's so easy to love. It's an honour to be a TeamTBoss member(cos I still am). GOD'S BLESSINGS TO ALL WHO VIEWED THIS THREAD. |

Giel: Did you notice that there is no one here that can call a spade a spade and congratulate tboss on her win,
rather they looking for ways to bring her down and downplay her success
lwkmd LMAO.
Association of hypocrites . When there's accumulated hatred in one's mind,there's very little room for love. Even when the truth is glaring,there will always be at least an atom of doubt. Such mindsets rarely achieve much cos they are locked up pretty tight in negativity. I'm so happy for TBoss cos now she'll be proud she won an arena game. She wanted to be HOH and an arena game winner and after weeks of waiting,she won both in just two days. The third is the 25mil and she'll definitely win that too. |

Giel: Dont mind the hypocrites see as they wanted to finish me with mentions yesterday
some were even telling me to call a spade a spade its only when tboss is wrong or she has done some thing wrong that you will see them come out and talk
now that tboss recognised her mistake and went to make things right, I didn't see anyone on this thread calling a spade a spade and acknowledging that she did the right thing,
I didn't get any mention every one became quiet and pretended that it didn't happen
bleeping hypocrites everywhere . The major problem with most Nigerians has always been the way we reason. We have the judgemental,hypocritical,sadists,hateful and the wicked just to name a few. No surprise this country is in the situation it's in. |

if she did, I hope it will make FP the same way it did when she blamed debie . It most likely will not. This just shows you that the people who actually rushed to post about it yesterday,did so not with patriotic hearts but with selfish ones with intents of either tarnishing TBoss or gathering temporary popularity with nairaland likes. |

TV/Movies › Re: BBNaija: Profiles Of Efe, Tboss, Bisola, Marvis, Debie-Rise (25M & SUV) by COOL10(m): 9:31am On Apr 03, 2017 |
emefav: Yaayyy, with Bally's exit from the show, we've got just 5 housemates remaining and also competing for N25M and an SUV.
As we're close to the grand finale next Sunday, here's all you need to know about the top 5 housemates.
1. TBoss
She already has Nigerian entertainment superstars campaigning for her, and fans across Africa who call themselves #BossNation. TBoss who is also into piercings and tattoos, who went to a primary school boarding, struggled with loneliness and making friends, and often attracted the wrong crowd.
The Edo born housemate, has a very strict dad, who was and tough on her and her siblings but her mom was always soft spoken & sweet. She studied at the University of Lagos for nine months before going to Romania to complete her studies. She’s an occasional drinker.
2. Bisola
The single mother of one, who was caught up in romance with Thin Tall Tony and Bally before their eviction, has been at the center of controversies. Bisola, who was a contestant in the Project Fame edition Iyanya won, won the last and final head of house challenge in the Big Brother Naija Reality TV show.
Abisola, who is part of the radio station WFM 91.7 (Nigeria’s 1st Radio station for WOMEN and their families), has revealed before now that she was a spoilt child till age 8, when her then well-off family hit some major hurdles.
She had to move to rural Nigeria where she lived with cousins selling make up and she got another shot at the high life when she came fifth in a reality singing competition.
Abisola, who is very talented, still plies her trade in the entertainment industry, revealing her comic side and using her voice to charm her listeners on her radio show on Nigeria’s first Women’s radio station – WFM 91.7.
Bisola has also delved into the Nollywood industry, featuring in movies like “The Life Of A Nigerian Couple” and “Forever With Us”.
3. Efe
Yaaayyy, he's most Nigerians favourite and has been tipped to win the prize money and the SUV. Efe, who is a graduate of Economics, won the hearts of Nigerians with his street flows and based on logistics slang. He is also the only male among the top 5 housemates, and also the only housemate to win the head of house challenge twice.
The Delta State born rapper, who grew up in Jos, has a known habit of picking his nose, has won the Payporte Arena Game the highest number of times.
Michael Efe Ejeba, who moved to Lagos for greener pastures after his youth service, loves cooking and also has a crush on Marvis.
4. Marvis
The Tomboy of the house, has a signature hairstyle and also eats garri more than any housemate on the show. Marvis, who is from Rivers State, is a graduate of Mass Communication and got the degree from Madonna University, Okija. She has the royal blood flowing in her, and is the 11th child out of 21 children.
Marvis who has been single for quite some time, revealed that she ended her last relationship because she couldn't keep up with the long distance romance. The Onne born entertainer, also claims she has never gotten into physical fights, as her mouth fights all her battles.
5. Debbie Rise
The 27-year-old cunny-cunny crooner is a Computer Science graduate, with a major in Graphics and Web Application Development from the Federal University of Technology, Yola.
Debbie (Melanin Goddess) emerged the first runner- up of the third season of Nigerian Idols in 2013, and has been working her way to the top since then.
The Ogun State born entertainer, has performed at major events within and outside the country including Felabration, Afropolitan Vibes at Freedom Park, the National Museum, Fotoplus Award night, Purple Account event powered by Wema Bank at Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife.
Debbie who has gotten into so many fights with other housemates, seem to be a top contender for the prize, as she has been saved even when it seems all hope is gone.
http://www.lailasblog.com/2017/04/bbnaija-heres-all-you-need-to-know.html . WTF would you say Efe is the only housemate to win HOH twice and the highest Payporte arena games winner? Those accomplishments belong to ThinTallTony. Do you even watch the show? |
