Amb Fitsaint: Hello medics and medics to be.
I am a staunch and a die hard medical aspirant of any reputable medical
school.
Medicine had cost me 2 gud years.
I did jamb last year with 251 and 257 in jamb and oau postjamb
respectively.(cutoff was 295)
I had 60%(cutoff shud be 70%) in lautech also.
This year, i had d gusto and determination to score @ least 280 in jamb
but unfortunately I had 245, I later changed my institution to eksu to
secure more chances of getting medicine.
@ d end.. I had 69.1%. I didnt make it in d 1st list due to indigene
tosh(though peeps wirh 64% made it in catchment).
I av given up on eksu since d mbbs has not been accredited.
I did fuoye's pjamb with 66%. she admitted me to study soil science which i loathe.
Now, I know no one denies me of my admission but my mediocrity.
I did oaupd entrance with 79% dis year with d sole aim of getting
medicine next year.
Pls, I want pep up talk and encouraging words 4rm docs in dis rum so as
for me not to give up on my dream. pls, what were ur challenges nd setbacks b4
getting admission to study MBBS?
I av always dreamt of setting d pace in d medical world.
I am set now to step out of my mediocrity which has made my dream
unrealistic.
Pls, how true re stories of dose using 3-6 years b4 getting medicine?
Thanks in anticipation.
Pls, i need prodding.
i am desperate to be a medic
