I have read ur post again and again and I don't believe d first half because I am educated and know what should be. Any doctor who needed the lab to make diagnosis or to treat should be sanctioned or have defective education. These services complement the doctor. In fact MLS, radiology and pharmacy where made to aid the doctors work, the central person in d hospital is a doctor. Patients don't go to hospital and say, "I want to see my lab scientist or radiographer or pharmacist", they always go to the hospital because they want to see a doctor. A well trained doctor should be able to arrive at a diagnosis, and use laboratory/radiologic tests to confirm that diagnosis. When a doctor sees for example pneumonia or genital discharge, he shouldn't wait for MCS to begin antibiotics, he ask for MCS to confirm that d antibiotics d patient is on is sensitive, in fact if the patient is recovering on the prescriptions the doctor doesn't change the medications even if the sensitivity says otherwise. Any doctor who cannot treat common medical ailments effectively when there is no laboratory should be shown the way out.

Not totally true....You just made me remember a case whereby a doctor requested a test to be carried out on a patient and the clinical summary as presented on the Request form/ the parasitic organism suspected by him was "Shistosoma Hematobium" and the sample that was sent to the lab was a Stool sample(which was even wrong in the first place, if he knew what he was doing it's a Urine sample that ought to have been sent). But after carrying out the test the parasite that was found to be present in the patient's stool sample was "Entamoeba Histolytica"....If the test had not been carried out, the patient would have been misdiagnosed and given the wrong treatment and this could have led to the death of that patient.....

BlueRayDick:
That is not true. The fees was increased to 250k during fashola's Era, after about 2 years of protest and agitation by the student union it was reverted back to the original 25k in the last month of fashola in office. Ask around.

I'm not denying the fact that it was increased during Fashola's tenure as governor, but you asked "How much is it now?" and I said its N25000

BlueRayDick:
How much is it now?

N25000 I think

Smeago007:
I got 194 at jamb.. Wanna study pharmacy at unizik
The cut off mark is 200

I've a strong olevel with 5A's and credits..
Are my chances slim of getting admitted?
Or no chance

No chance at all.... It's better you get a COC/Institution form

Linkfield:
Pls can i upload my waec result printout in the space of waec certificates?? I dont have my waec certificate yet

Pls reply now

Yes, but don't you have the statement of result from your school( that'll be preferable)....But make sure you get it before the screening that'll be done after the Admission list has been released, cos it'll be required by then.

Abeg they should call off the strike... i'm already tired of it

walexsy:
Ok thanks boss

UWC

walexsy:
Ok..where's that located pls?

It's located in Unilag Campus... just ask anyone for directions when you get there

walexsy:
I did change of institutions 2weeks ago could that be a reason?
N what's CITS pls?

That could be the reason, and it could be jamb's fault and not UNILAG's.... but still if it persists you have to complain ......Centre for Information, Technology and Systems

walexsy:
Guys,Whenever I try logging into my pume acct..it keeps saying invalid login details
What could be the cause pls?

Maybe your details haven't been uploaded into their server. If it persists after next week, then maybe you have to go to CITS to complain

benoinstrull:

6+X years

Donnetimmy:
This is has been an issue that has resulted in an heated argument between my friend and I.

Which of these two universities has more NOTABLE alumnus?

UNILAG has more notable alumni

Koats14:
Thanks for the prompt response. So, no need of obtaining another form (Unilag's) other than Jamb's Direct Entry? i.e. we shouldn't be expecting Unilag to sell any sort of application form to direct entry applicants?

yeah, if this year isn't going to be different from the previous years

azora:
Thanks

azora:
Since UI is going to make the candidates to seat for post UTME. please I will like to know if possible to gain admission to study medicine with jamb score of 262.

If UI is gonna conduct post utme just as it as been done in the previous years, then your jamb score doesn't matter. It just qualifies you for the post utme(200 and above) . It's just the post utme result that'll be used to consider the candidate for admission

Koats14:
What about Direct Entry applicants? When will their screening form be out?

And also, does Unilag require transcript before admission or after admission? Thanks.

Unilag does not conduct screening examination for DE candidates...... The only screening you'll do is that after the admission list has been released and you'll be asked to present some documents

I would be graduating from med school at 26. I just recently started worrying if it is a late age to gain enough experience and further specialisation. Note that I intend to live as a single all my life. Medics in the house, what is your advise.

Its not too late...This is a professional course, age won't really matter.... Besides the earliest age at which someone can be done with MeD school is about 21-22years ....4-5years later than this doesn't stop you from getting the experience and specialization you need

Anatejoe555:
I am currently an ND holder in science laboratory technology, and preparing for my hnd program. My preference under the hnd options is enviromental biology. My question is, will i be able to use the hnd result(slt env biology) to gain direct entry admission to study medical courses (med lab science) in uni because that is my main focus. i'll b grateful for ur advice. thanks.

The best option is for you to take a Jamb form..I don't think SLT is accepted for DE into MLS....you can check the DE requirements for the schools you're interested in just to be sure

kholayrio:
is there anything like unilag's direct entry form?

No. You just get the jamb DE form and you submit a copy of the form along with your credentials at jamb office and also at the admissions office and that's all... you then wait for the admission list

walexsy:
Guys I'm in a bit of a dilemma here
I chose unilag while registering for jamb,after taking it n getting 239 which plus my olevel was 59.9(using the olevel n jamb aggregate method)which wasn't enough for my desired course
I decided to change institution to uniben cos I heard they only use jamb cut off of which my score is more than enough for my chosen course
Now schools are allowed to conduct pume again..I wanna change back to unilag
The issue is..
1Can one re-change institution ?
2If rechangeable,I want to wait for the screening form to be out first so as to be sure unilag is really adopting post ume..hope it won't be too late then cos I believe jamb sends list of aspirants that chose each sch to them before announce sell of forms or is that not so?[color=#990000][/color]

Dont even know if it's possible to re-change..... All this is the ministry of Education's fault causing confusion

So it's official



The Federal Government has lifted the ban on the controversial examinations usually organised by universities in Nigeria for admission seekers after the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examinations (UTME).
The Federal Government had last year ordered the scrapping of post-UTME for candidates.Speaking in an exclusive interview with The Guardian in Abuja yesterday, the Minister of Education, Malam Adamu Adamu, said universities could now organise post-UTME as a pre-condition to gaining admission into universities in the country.
The minister, who however urged university authorities to make the fees for the screening affordable and not to impose huge financial burden on the parents, said: “We are going to allow universities to organise post-UTME if they want.
“We have asked them not to impose huge financial burden on the parents. The burden should not be more than what they can bear.”Adamu said that the Federal Government had stopped the scrapping of the examination to fully understand what was going on in universities, adding: “We are now wiser.”
The minister, who expressed confidence in the examination conducted by the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB), said the management of JAMB had remitted N5 billion to the Federal Government coffers, which happens to be the highest so far in the last 40 years of the board’s existence.
He said: “Since JAMB was established more than 40 years ago, the total amount it has given government was N200 million, but in one year, Prof. Ishaq Oloyede has remitted N5 billion to government.
“The new JAMB registrar has been correcting many anomalies in the board. Within a year, he has been able to stop all the untold things that were happening there.
