Virulent:
Whatchu mean? it's medicine we talking here not mls, nursing,empire2017 are u from abia state? do u know any staunch personality in absu? If the latter is no,then just go find one. 266 medicine absu, hmmmm no tooo good.
And what outrageous fees are you talking about? aside from the development, accreditation and acceptance fees(100lvl), which again?

You're forgetting a couple details.

1. ABSU is a state university with a low competition (1500 last year)

2. expensive school fees, when compared to fed unis

3. Close to Uniport. Hence the big guns would rather not go there

4. 266 is not so easy to get.

Also if Delsu with 3495 candidates last year took 260 for merit, how would you expect absu to demand higher?.... Don't make the dude scared over nothing. I support he needs a strong WiFi but his chances of getting it without a strong WiFi is still pretty high.

chukwukapromise:
U kiding me dude?

Wait! You mean 266 won't get med at absu? 1st choice candidate? Haba na, it's absu with an outrageous school fees... How many people with 266 do you even think is applying for absu?

empire2017:
. ..MINE IS 266 absu as ist choice...1B ,3C4 nd 1C6..any hope or change course?

Admission is sure, Congrats!

whizzyleejr:
C's in my O'level OAU

If you want medicine then change your choice of school, else just stick to MLS

whizzyleejr:
Scored 280 in JAMB, want to change from MLS to Medicine, am I good to go??

School? O'LEVEL?

SamanN:
But i won't be using awaiting result, so GCE is more like for future. Isn't it?

Exactly, GCE is more of a future plan. The affidavit should be your present plan.

Also, I would advice you rectify your issue(outside the affidavit route) so as to prevent future unpleasant events. Unlike what promise is saying, I've heard of issues of marginalization brought about by incorrect D.O.B and name issue(despite an affidavit being present) in getting jobs. Some countries too would not recognize a Nigerian affidavit, making it impossible to go to, study or work in such countries.

If waec is the only issue, then rewrite and free yourself.

there's nothing like islamization agenda.... stop believing nonsense and live your life to the fullest....
IRK is Islamic Religious Knowledge.... Be informed

Sorry but that's bull crap. It's so glaring what they're trying to do and I am fully against it. Remove all religious subjects or put them all in. that shouldn't be too hard

SamanN:
Thanks for this, i was contemplating writing another WAEC.

Just saw this, and I think you should go ahead with it. It's better safe than sorry and it puts your mind at rest

GCE registration is still on BTW

You should of course get the affidavit too as GCE won't be out till year end

Kkposky:
You guys should check properly before you begin to share wrong knowledge to the public....
CRK and IRK has been integrated to civic... It will still be thought in schools but not as a subject... OP Be guided....

I don't even know if religious studies has any impact.. I think our religious bodies should be fully in charge and not schools

So it's International Relativity Knowledge(IRK) they are writing on Thursday abi?

You will not shut up and agree that there is an Islamization agenda going on in a secular country.

I'm just wondering why he took ethanol along

Was he gonna get her drunk then kill her?

Anyway, the kid who is obviously intelligent should have worked harder. I think he has been spoilt tho. The I'll always get what I want mentality he has been instill with.... Well his and the police's business

It's pleasant nothing happened to the girl. Now that would have been a tragedy

komemarz:
somebody should advise me pls...I chose delsu as my second choice and got 295 in the last jamb aspiring for med and surgery...using the point system used by the sch, my total was 60 which is higher than the minimum point of 55.. my question is this will I be on a safer side if I change delsu to my first choice owing to the competitive nature of admission in Uniben which is my first choice ..I'm from delta also. thanks

Uniben about a 60% chance

Delsu 100% chance

Choose wisely

SamanN:
I've not bro, i just want to give it a little time, was that wrong of me?

I don't think so... But you should visit the admissions office of your school and do some enquiries. So as to be sure an affidavit would be accepted

SamanN:
Donpre bro. Have you been good?

Sure have pal... Saw your post on needing an affidavit, hope you've settled it.

SamanN:
The testimonial and certificate; I have none is it applied to all schools?

Not all schools require those. Important ones are jamb result, O'level cert, birth cert/age declaration, LGA letter or cert of identification(clearance).... You could check which your school required last year and start stockpiling them.

vimma:
Or he could get admitted, but defer the admission for one year until he's 16.

now that's an idea... nice one

davbravo:
I'll advice you to get an Affidavit from the court swearing that the date of birth on your birth certificate is wrong and you're already 16( I don't know how they go about this, but u can ask those that have done it before) , .....don't just say you'll try ur luck, cos you may gain the admission but end up being dropped during the screening exercise.....you don't want to waste this good score and you don't know what may happen if you decide to write another utme next year.......And someone advising you to change to a state university won't work either , all universities in Nigeria require a minimum of 16 years for admission( it's on jamb brochure)....

Seriously what's with Nigerians and shortcuts?

You may have forgotten that his D.O.B in waec can't be changed and could conflict with his certificate in the future, especially if he decides to go abroad.

The kid seems smart. Waiting a year won't kill him

mehvo:
Depending on when you got the scholarship. if you got it in 100l, your get paid your 6 years no bargaining.

Thanks

Donpre:
What is the duration of the scholarship for medical students?.. I can't seem to find it even on their website

Edakun! Epp me with answer.

GdexFolami:
you 'believe'

Yes pal, believe.

Saw it in 2015's jamb brochure as a prerequisite for admission, but I can't confirm if universities take it serious. Hence I think the dude show try his luck, who knows, it may not matter in his choice of school

ChucE:
My name is Declan. I wrote my first jamb this year, scored 270. I have A1 in maths, chemistry and biology with B2 in English and physics and I applied for Medicine in UNN. I am also going to be 15 this year. Can I be admitted?

I believe a minimum of 16 years of age is required for tertiary education. Nice result all the same

legitimatefrank1:
but do i have prospecs of being admitted

Psychology isn't competitive so I believe if you have a 200+ score, then you'd be admitted.

legitimatefrank1:
ok thanks....and please what subject is i shouldn't have taken

Your combo is correct... Delsu need maths tho

What of mine:Jamb - 285,waec:3B3,2C4,2C5and2C6. Pharmacy, uniport. What are my chances

rotimi9:
Can one do change of course twice pls Anybody

I believe it's clearly written that the procedure can only be done once.

I'm surprised you've got 5000+ to spend. Anyway, what went wrong with the first?

Briona:
which institution do you think uses more of your o'level results?

UI, OAU, Unilag and I think LASU also.... Lasu would be a good pick: moderate fees and lesser competition.

I would warn that pharm and dent would still be impossible with that score. At most, you'd get one of the basic med sciences, microbiology or MLS.

chukwukapromise:
Just get lasu as a second choice, just In case...

Do you have any info on how many lasu took from their second choice most especially for medicine?

Briona:
please I need urgent answers, scored 216 in jamb, physics and maths got A,
biology and chemistry got B,
English got C,
uniport is my choice of institution, I'm also into the basic program in uniport.
between dentistry and pharmacy, which one do I have a higher chance of getting admitted?
thanks.

Dear, 216 won't get you anything in the Basic medical sciences let alone goldmines such as pharm or Dent. Maybe microbiology but that's not even assured.

your choices are; Stay at uniport, focus and ace you 2nd semester basic exams(if they've not written it already).

Or Switch of a school that uses O'level grades. Your O'level looks great and that means it'd boost your chances but not at uniport.

NOTE: Uniport gives almost all their there basic students admission. It may not be your desired course but you'd get something

Peterside9:
So UNICAL is more likely to offer me admissions

More like you're sitting on the first list

50% of 600+ mcqs, 10+ essay questions, steeple chase, vivas etc... On anatomy, biochemistry, physiology, pathology, pharmacology, and other advanced medical courses. Voluminous books with super voluminous contents. 8hours+ of classes everyday except weekends. Not up to 2 months break a year.

Please don't deceive peeps with statements like those. I'm an aspirant but as least I know what I'm getting into, but over 80% of aspirants out there think it's a bed of roses and this your post really isn't helping that. That's why a lotta peeps flunk, quit or just barely make it out, because they thought it was gonna be easy and didn't prepare themselves enough.

Peterside9:
Applying for medicine jamb score 283 1A and 4Bs what are my chances in UNICAL or UNIPORT?

Unical... Very good . Uniport? 50/50

With that score and O'level, try calculating your points using UI, OAU or unilag's point system. I think you'd pass last year's cut off of any of those three.

Wizydom144:
Vomiting and Diarrhea leads to salt and Water loss: Discuss the hormonal Mechanisms involved in the restoration of these Parameters

The release of ADH from the pituitary and Aldosterone from the adrenal would facilitate reabsorption of water and sodium from the kidney, which would help balance lost water and salt.

On a Hot day, The Body Produces small concentrated Urine, While on a cold day, it produces Large Dilute Urine. Discuss the Mechanism involved to achieve this....

Some of the UNN 2mbbs questions for Dental and medical students,,,,,,,,,, Unn

On a Hot day:
The skin releases sweat as a mechanism to reduce the external body temperature. This would result in a decrease in the body's osmotic pressure. To counteract this, ADH is releases from the pituitary gland to facilitate water reabsorption in the kidney, hence resulting in a small concentrated Urine.

On a cold day:
The blood has a high osmotic pressure. The kidney hence removes as much water as it can until the osmotic pressure is balanced. ADH isn't released, so no reabsorption takes place, thereby leading to a large diluted urine

#O'Level knowledge but I think I came close

Ajet001:
Op is right
Maths 200.
You must be joking
You're comparing maths 200 with IMO
Remember it's for ss1 and ss2
Some of the questions i can still recall
*2^2015*2^2017 find the last number
*Mathematical -induction
*Sqaure root of 1200054121 will it be 1.prime number 2.odd number 3.even number
Remeber no calculator.

Back then in secondary school SS1 and SS2 to be precise i attempted NIMO i won medals at the 1st stage the 2nd stage that will qualify you for IMO was hell back then the highest i scored was 1/10 .

I don't have the opportunity to participate in IMO i'm sure it will be more harder than 2nd stage.

Maths is beautiful but those questions are dangerous... I believe Calcs are not allowed
