You don't have to feel oppressed because of those scores you're seeing..UI will still take take up to 130 candidates into MBBS..I would have easily made UI's admission in 2017 if I had gotten the right information..With 300 you can easily make MBBS list in UI if you know the secrets..

UI's secret is LAMLARD biology, chemistry and physics.You can read A1 English.
@pes13 who entered in 2017 said about 60-70 questions that came out were lifted directly from LAMLARD past questions..The exam literally was almost like solving past questions for him.

Solve all the past questions in LAMLARD and you're 80% in.

I applied the same trick the following year and I was admitted into MBBS in UNIBEN without stress.

So you have been deceiving me all these while telling me you are studying MBBS at UI and it is your younger brother that is studying MBBS at Uniben.

You fall my hands bro.

Not that it's too low. It's 'highly-average' in view of UI Mbbs competitiveness. If she is sure of getting 80+ in p.utme, she will surely meet the cut-off mark especially considering the fact that she's from ELDS.
Otherwise, she should restrain and plot her graph in another way.

Oh okay. Thanks

She's tried. However, when talking about UI MBBS, the score's kinda low.
If she can't score at least 83 in the post utme, advise her to change to a less competitive sch. The fact that she is from Kogi gives her an 'upper hand' too. If she is ready to give it all it takes, she will definitely make it. Tell her not to become complacent.
Shalom.

You mean 311 is too low for UI MBBS?
Education / Re: The medical students and aspirants thread by Eben331: 12:02pm On Mar 30, 2020
ShahRukhKhan:
With 311 and this O'level there's quite a big chance she will make it into Udusok. Kogi is part of her well recognised ELD states.
Also if she can do better than 311 in ABU post utme, there is fair chance for her too - I learnt many Kogites are in ABU.
Have you guys consider UniMaid or ATBU? UniMaid is quite strong, I don't know much about ATBU tho.
In the west, I'd primarily suggest LASU. I have forgotten how the screening is calculated but there's no post utme - you can make enquiries about it as only O'level and Utme score is needed. ( since she's not a lagosian, I'll advise her to opt out if her screening aggregate is not in the north of 80%).
OOU is also a good school, one of the top state owned institutions with a good medical school, fees are kinda expensive but admission isn't too competitive.
UniMed, Ondo is also another choice, state owned and expensive too but admission isn't too strict here. I have no idea about this school current accreditation status.
EBSU, ESUT, UNIZIK are my top recommendations if you want to head Southern part of Nigeria.
I won't recommend UNN, UniBen, Delsu, OAU, Unilag, Unijos but if she wants to try any of them, she's good to go but I won't advice my sister to choose any.


Why do you say you won't advise someone to choose Unijos?

I am curious. I pick the school.

That's true, but I don't care about the figure. Most of them will relent las las. You can check Tbose jamb and post utme statistics last year.

The guy that was the highest last year in UI's post utme (92) wasn't their student. He scored 302 in jamb and another 91 scored 304 while those with 320+ were following and even some didn't make it.

War is not about who is right, it's about who is left. To me, MBBS is war!!! Manpower and strategy are necessary.

You just boost my morale. I have been thinking of all these 320+ guys.

Hello everyone, I scored 297 in utme, I chose University of Ibadan, I am from Delta state, I have seen bogus scores from UI aspirants such as 340+,330+ etc.
Moreover, 51 students from Tbose tutorials are sitting on 300+ already, one even have upto 346. I don't even know of Team tutors, I know I can score 84+ in post utme, but I don't want a situation where I am like 0.125 below cut off mark, then I will have to settle for anthropology or any other "mumu" course like that...

That is serious

Transparency - 85%. Tribalism - 97%. Don't ask me how I know.
Udus MBBS is not about scores alone, there are many things attached that isn't fed to the public.
If you're from catchment - you're safe. If you're from ELD - you stand a chance. If you're from merit - then you'd fight a war to get in.
All in all what matters in Udus is your score, your state, God and maybe connections if you want MBBS.
On a simpler scale, last year merit was 280 until you apply. That 280 is just on paper, they will only admit you if you're the highest or among the highest from your state. ( assuming 10 people from Lagos or any merit state choose Udus for MBBS with scores like 340, 333, 320, 301, 298, 295, 289...) They will only admit the top 3 or 4 scorers for MBBS, the next 2 top scorers will be offered BDS ( a new programme) while others will be thrown to applied chm, MCB, etc. Don't forget the fact that all the ten aspirants had above 280 which was written on paper. That's why I said they are transparent but tribalisms is ....
But assuming you are from catchment states like Sokoto, Kebbi, Zamfara, Niger etc. With 270 they can literally beg you to accept the admission for MBBS. I saw people with 230, 240, 235, 250 etc offered MBBS from the core northern states (cut off mark for catchment was pegged at 230)...

There is no post utme as at now (just a good utme score and complete Olevel). Also their MBBS is kinda okay and fast too. Their class of 2015 were supposed to start their 2nd MB (Exam written at the end of 400lvl) in March before the ASUU stuffs.
Do your homework well, if you have 300+ in utme and you don't want to prepare for post utme again... You stand a good chance in Udus. Just don't be surprised if you're the only student from your state while some state have as high as 25 students.

Please, can I get your WhatsApp contact?
I need to ask some questions about Udusok from you.

Hello DarkPheonix,

Well done and congratulations on your result. You did great. Always thank God in everything smiley.

I am not so surprised about your Parents kicking against UNIMAID, it's normal given the prevailing circumstances in the country.

No one University is perfect. There are some schools where connections and money run the affairs viz: LAUTECH, UNIJOS, ABU, UNILAG, LASU and UI (covertly).

Now I would pick each of these schools(I know a bit about each one) and talk about them briefly to buttress.

LAUTECH: I was at Ogbomoso some seven years ago for Predegree. When admission time came I began seeing different funny things at the students affairs, because that's where the office of the admissions officer is located. You see several vehicles littered across the car lot that caters for the students affairs building. Pot-bellied lecturers going in and out. Students milling around in their numbers.

I saw deserving students even of Oyo and Osun origin shuffled to funny departments that had no correlation whatsoever with what they applied for from the onset.

I myself was offered crop and environmental protection in lieu of Medicine, when I complained the admissions officer told me blankly "Go and study Medicine in your father's state (Ondo)". I knew someone who applied for Medicine and was offered Fine and Applied art.

People getting whisked from Computer Engineering to Accounting Technology, Marketing and Transport Management. While some students who, if their scores were subtracted from mine, there would still be more than 100 difference got in for Medicine, Nursing and MLS.

LAUTECH was so porous (I don't know about now). I even helped a friend who failed his test that time. I knew one of the student leaders at that time, I explained, he told me to bring 20/25k, (I can't remember which) for upgrade. When the results and admission was released, my guy did well and was even offered Human Anatomy.

UNIJOS: I considered applying here for Dental Surgery but had to take two steps back when I started observing irregularities in their admissions process; I followed UNIJOS aspirants page on Facebook. I saw several people who merited the courses they applied for being offered something totally different. It's bewildering, really.

I have this colleague in Medicine who came from Jos to ABU. He was offered LARIS (Library and Archival Studies) in place of Medicine. Funny enough, a friend of his who he scored more than got Medicine. That school's modalities still baffles me, a lot.

ABU: ABU also has her own fair share of illogicalities, several if you asked me. How else, would one explain why someone with 250 average got Medicine and someone with 286 average was offered Physiology(with connection; I learnt about this much later). Moving a dude I know from Nursing all the way to Home Economics.

ABU also has SBRS (School of Basic and Remedial studies) students (from the 19 Northern states) to satisfy. It's complicated, honestly.

"You have to score the highest from your non-catchment state to be eligible for competitive courses", that statement only but goes so far.

I would say ABU is a matter of God's grace. A friend told me to, quoting him, "Make sure you know somebody. You know those abokis are always against Southerners blah, blah, blah". Well, I got in on the first list. I knew only God.

UNILAG:At Akoka, people pay millions to get into Medicine/Dental Surgery. Their admissions cut off mark list is more or less them fulfilling "Social righteousness" so to say.

Sure, some people would get in on merit, but how many? Is it with their style of Post UTME that seems the devil himself descended to design the model?.

Infact, I quizzed a friend who studies Medicine there now on how he prepared for their PUTME. He told me he had to buy a JAMB Government past question and several types of Current affairs pamphlets just to ace their exam.

Laudable effort, I agree. However, can you just imagine?

How about their Foundation/Diploma students? You know how much they pay? And there one is, spending at most N10,000(including registration in cafes for UTME and PUTME). One can't possibly expect them to admit one over them.

I have a neighbor whose father had to part with N700,000 for him to get a space in Law. On transit to 200L, I think they reviewed his results and found him missing Yoruba, he losed his admission. Baba took the UTME again and is currently in part 3 studying English Language. UNILAG is money and connection for the most part, if one has any of those, one is by all means good to go.

LASU: A friend's friend(who comes from Ogun State) applied there for Medicine some two years ago and heard nothing from that school up till date. He had 300+ at that time. Today, that fellow is now at Usman Danfodio University, Sokoto studying Medicine.

UI: University of Ibadan is by far the most transparent federal University in Nigeria. If you merit your admission, there's no witch or villager that would usurp what the almighty has perfected.

However, the competition. It is at UI you see Olympiad winners, Best Students at NECO and WAEC, people who have experience with A-Levels. This is where majority of them come. However, this is not to scare you, if it's Dental Surgery/Medicine at UI you want, you can by all means get it.

Now, only a few persons know UI past questions get leaked. How else can one explain a person scoring 92 in UI Post UTME. You can't just up and achieve that feat, it's the University of Ibadan.

I have a hunch those tutorial guys(Team tutors, Abadina; Apex Tutorials, Agbowo, et al.) have these questions. How do they get them? When their students go in for the PUTME, they tell them to memorize some of these questions, see, simple.

When it's time for their PUTME tutorials, I'd advice you be on campus for them, it would go a long way.

Also, the covertly aspect is this. Some students are given a sort of edge; a back door. If they fall couple of marks below the cut off mark, they are given a sort of waiver, provided the student is an offspring of and has thesame surname as a senior staff such as a Professor. I got to know about this at the UI UG-Admissions office last year when I went on enquiry for a friend.



Conclusively, all of these I have written are not an hallmark or a sort of yardstick and should not be regarded as one.

I do not know the innings of things that occur in various admissions offices across universities in Nigeria, all of the above are guesstimates.

Yet, we've got a God who can do the seemingly impossible. Do your part and do it very well.

My heart goes out to you all. It's hard, I know. You've come far and I applaud you.

Just pray, hope, follow your heart/intuition and do not be anxious for anything.

I wish you guys the very best.

Yours.


PS: Usman Danfodio recently began their Dental Surgery program. Not a lot of people know about this. You might want to do some findings.

You said it all sir. I think with this I should be able to decide what I want for myself. Thanks sir.

It depends on your expectations and your background, in the end life is what you make out of it.

Knew of a basic student who stayed in a 1 room shared toilet and bathroom in Aluu for 6000 a month and he paired with another guy. In the end he had basic admission to pharmacy and jamb admission to medicine. Moral of the above is cost of living can and should always be managed accordingly.

sorry for the late response sir.
I like the fact that you know your weak points and you've identified and acknowledged it, hence, the willingness to improve abides.
Sincerely speaking, my SSCE is worse than yours ( all C) and I'm in 400L now Unijos.
1. Catchment areas as regards admission into Nigerian universities has been abolished but implementation may be an issue.
2. Your determination to succeed at the forth coming UTME is achievable and I would advise you make I so.
3. I've always advised people come to the North for medical school and my reasons are
a. Less competition form the western and Eastern states (I'm from the SE)
b. Cost of living is cheap (arguable)
c. No unnecessary demands from lecturer to buy any stuff eg books and so on.
d. Fees are considerably cheap too.
e. Admission process is quite transparent ( can't speak of BUK and ABU, both schools are good but in terms of admission, I can't say)
f. Meeting with great minds form all over Nigeria.

4. Also look out for other schools with less competition with regards to people from your state..
5. If u know people, use your contacts ooo, cuz it's important now.

First year in unique Uniport /ofrima/college_hall/. You will love the school even though say biro na 50naira. You will learn with faculty of science (physics, chemistry, biology) where you are required 50% average to cross over to year2. General study courses are included. The workload isn't too much, you'll pull through with good level of seriousness.Exams are in theory, obj and practical forms.

Is it really true that things In Port Harcourt are expensive??
