not working, it kept coming on and off and the batrey showed 0% despite that i charged it all night it was showing plugged in but not charging. i contacted konga and they managed to reply after two days that i should return it. i did return it and till date i have not gotten any positive reply from konga i keep calling and mailling.
All konga does is to mail me and call me asking me to go rate the
product i bought on their website, please how do i rate something i
did not use?

bought the tablet is defeated.
konga please kindly refund my money

My bro, passing part 1 is compared to passing a camel through needle"s eye.
Its truly demoralising and disheartening. May God help us

ChelseaDr:
Life starts after part 1 as a resident doctor but to cross that rubicon.... Hmmm.... To think that the criteria for passing are becoming more stringent is alarming... God help us!!

Is there a way to go about it? Hv asked the mods since last year to take it to frontpage but to no avail.
I'm sure maybe the right authorities will see this and maybe act. Change begins from us.

Drsmiles:
Front page abeg

To think its just internship and its this dificult, if it"s now residency training nko? Resident Drs go through much worse conditions. To sum it up, Medical traning is a huge joke in this country.

Brother, the others are not dumb at all. from observation and interactions with others, before the exams are even written the colleges already have quota they want to pass. There is no clear cut criteria to ascertain who passes or not hence different standards... I believe medical doctors can do many things outside practicing clinical medicine; lecturing is also lucrative for the doctor amidst other things... I trust God to help us in my beloved country, open the eyes of our understanding and make us see that we gain nothing from failing people who should have passed. Besides medicine is practice and not just theory. Many of the examiners are not even as sound as they claim they want the candidate to be... Medicine is a continuous learning ground, you never say never and you never know it all.

My own problem is even that these exams are too expensive. Spending almost 200k to write an exam when you're being paid a lot less is killing.
Medical elders are the ones destroying the ladder they climbed up.

For this country ehn, doctors too dey suffer

Then imagine someone paying dat 200k almost 5 times and being failed for flimsy excuses. Is that not unfair?

Rightly said... "designed to fail candidates ".. One of the reasons our health sector is backward. Many rewrite these exams and at a point frustration sets in and this in turn affects their jobs. The silly thing is that candidates are failed for the wrong reasons... An examiner just doesn't like your face or feels you are too young to be a senior registrar or a consultant and then you are failed...

The entire system should be overhauled.

U are right my brother, what then becomes the fate of the Drs who become frustrated out of the system. He becomes stuck, can't pratice as a specialist neither can he do general practice.
A situation were out of 14 candidates only 3 pass? Are the rest so dumb? Its baffling

Resident doctors manning the teaching hospitals in Nigeria are being traumatized by the examiners of the Medical Colleges NPMCN (National Postgraduate Medical College) and WAPMC (West Africa postgraduate Medical College).
These examinations are designed to fail candidates. Many examiners would say the fewer the merrier.
In Nigeria, the exam is held in Lagos and Ibadan. Twice a year candidates converge from all over Nigeria for exams, each exam consists of about 5 stages. It is usually a grueling process because if any fails any stage, he or she will have to come back again and pay for a fresh exam and start all the stages anew, it then becomes a vicious cycle because one has to keep writing until someday you pass.
Examiners deliberately fail candidates and selectively pass their "anointed candidates". Some candidates repeat these exams as much as 9 times. Some candidates end up being asked to leave their centers when the stipulated time is complete irespective of if you could not pass your exams.
A lot of candidates have been emotionally wounded and destabilized by being failed repeatedly, imagine the emotional and financial constrains faced by these doctors along with the high risk of the Nigerian highways.
The two colleges need to be regulated and checked by Nigerian authorities, Resident Doctors need to be rescued from the claws of lion and lioness (NPMCN and WAPMC).
Please well-meaning Nigerians, politicians, Governors, Minister of Education,Minister of Health, The Presidency and National House of Assembly should please look into the plight of resident doctors and set up a committee to scrutinize these colleges as it has been ridden with corruption. The NUC should regulate the activities of these colleges; the centers for examinations should be decentralized or zoned to avoid unnecessary travels to exam centers.
