Atesunate15: spent almst 4k n missd scholshp optz

how do u mean?

shakur07: d last tym i checked u r a naijirian nao *

u.s = united states

Ajengb: . Its always been like that,they will set 4 u commcerce questions but even if you beat d cut off with wide margin they don't accept it.its good u're already a graduate though but if u're doubting me u can confirm from d skool directly they will tell u point blank

i agree to some extent. But i dont agree TOTALLY.

funtanherb: In the brochure the subject combination for PHILOSOPHY is Any 3 subjects in the special consideration section OAU requires 5 o level credit pass to include English Language,one Arts subject and a pass in Mathematics...Please where in the brochure can I find that OAU does not accept commerce and why did they set question on commerce ..Just Curious

u're safe. All u need to do is beat d cutoff.
But i think they dont accept commerce for some courses like econs. Highest dey'll do is push u to anoda dept. It wont get terminated

Horppy: read between the lines.
He meant ''Why should Senators and Ministers earn more than Lecturers''

so shud profs collect more, same or less?

Horppy: are they richer than Nigeria?

Our problem is leadership, coupled with mismanagement

depends on who u refer to as they. Dont put u.s in d@ position sha

prince CEE: Of a real truth, dia is huge amount of money in Nigeria's pulse, how do u fink dat it is fair to be paying the so called ministers and senators premiumly than the lecturers. Its not fair at all.
As for me, what I fink is dat once dia is salary increament for the lecturers, d prejudice Dat's existing between the lecturers and students will just be a foregone story in d history of Nigeria's educational system.
Please federal government should act immediately to stop this incessant strike that has evaded our educational system with a cataclysmic effect.

is dis a joke? Minister/senator? Same salary as a prof?
Gracious!!

Horppy: So you think it's wrong, isn't it?

Go check: parliamentarians earn same salary with Professors in US

now comparing d u.s wit a 3rd world?

[quote author=morgan**g]Hmmmm...probably 3month to call off d strike abi
Wellsha if u guyz remenber when jamb result came out **NUC** said all admission processing should done latest as at 31st Oct...
obviously now if nothing is done about this strike that meanz we got no option!! Wat baffled me most i made mistake in choosing ui both 1st nd 2nd choice##
And to me i don't think that poly do exist!!! Apparently now''' i got no hope!!!
##crying.....[/quote]its not a mistake. U did d right thing. If u choose someoda skuls, dey might likely give u admission first b4 u.i. Meaning u'll end up looking 4 a way to terminate d first admission (& its not always easy).
Stress

folagbade23: who is talking about ability to pay or not pls dont reply my posts again if u cant
undastand what i mean... Can u tell me
why they havent paid them since 2009

u a staff kid?

Horppy: These are the kinds of things I hate to see.
Federal Government can not what?
How much is the Ministers' salary, talkless of other OFFICIALS?

how much is it? Shud a minister & a prof. now be on d same page interms of salary?

folagbade23: whatever ASUU is fighting for is their right, they are human beings too, if the federal govt had known that they wont be able to pay them then why did they sign an agreement with them

I think the federal govt should be the one to be questioned here

they signed it cos dey needed to make sure we went back to d classroom

Leystra: Ok, for novice like me... Please mention some of the competitions that was won by the students of OAU..

u see w@ i was talking? When one is analysing, anoda is looking 4 comparison

AmiableJay: Hausa, you dhan hear?

did i say d@ oau is better dan u.i?
Wasnt it u guys d@ are ever quick to defend ur skul without reading in between d lines?

davidiee: All the argument again. Let me clearify some issues here especially in medical schools.
1. If the school is not yet accredited the people studying there are really gambling big time
2. Teaching hospital is a part and parcel of the medical school. But that's not what primarily determines the admission quota. It is mainly determined by the strength and capacity of the faculty ofbasic medical sciences cos iit's the bedrock of medicine or likewise the foundation of it. Example. .. are the anatomy, histology, physiology, biochemistry or pharmacology labs etc well equipped. Are the human cadavers sufficient enough for practicals. Are there enough microscopes and so on. There are schools with big and well equipped teaching hospitals but have low admission quota or worse still not accredited because of insufficient basic medical sciences facilities.
3. Going to babcock, ui, unilag, oau, unn, uniport, uniben, unilorin or any other medical schools doesn't make one a better doctor. It's your zeal, passion, hard work, determination and commitment that is the key. Cos these schools can waff you if they deem you mentally unfit to be in their medical schools.

good analysis. I expected somtin like dis.
At least it dosnt taste bitter

AmiableJay: lol, one quality of a good argument is one that lacks emotions. And the other quality is to hammer your points convincingly instead of jumping from one 'web' to another without making any sense just to hide your head. Brother, learn how to argue am begging you(I hope you are not a law student?:-()
btw, if a schnol has a name to protect, why not publish the results! That's the standard used in Havard, Yale and othe world universities!
When you talked of the change in admission system, U.I is a very dynamic school so you dont expect them to be doing the same thing over and over. And not every admission system favours everybody bro. What's good for the goose can be bad for the gander...
I wont argue again if I realize that you haven't changed.

========
jossybaba, wetin happen nah?

they changed d@ mode because nigerian citizens were complaining. In case u dont knw, It dint even favor some staff kids.

Johntosyne: coz dats y dey are unique nd nt lyk oau dat can b predicted easily, changing frm oral to written wasnt due to any error, buh a perfection nd on dat publishing tin, we arent lyk oau who make jest of odas coz of dia low score, wen its published, u can jst view ur own nd even try nd calculate d odaz wifout being in suspense, lyk wat oau's candid are in nw.......... DATZ Y DEY CALLED DEM D FIRST ND D BEST!

ok, but am sure a lot of pple here are in suspense cos not everibody is even sure on weda their names will be in print.
>
u shud nw undastand when dis stage comes everi year, no skul is left out of d suspense

Fynestboi: am tellng u dis is eva d first time ui wuld give date witout fulfilng it as state nd i guess its due to d ASUU strike of a tn.....

maybe

Qassy4all: @ Mr.HAUSA,u r just sentimental in ur arguement...I can still remember u very well.I know dat UI frustrated u in her 2011/2012 admission process and u r denied admission then...well,my points r 1-U r comparin Babcock skul of med with dat of Unibadan...smh...don't forget dat ben carson skul of med is nt fully accredited by MDCN dat was d reason while PROF.MT SHOKUNBI of neurosurgery dept COMUI rejected his appointment of bin d provost of dat college. 2-Most of structures in UI is far older dan ur acclaimed OAU and r still well maintained-eg our prestigious TRENCHARD HALL,TEDDER,MELLANBY,SULTAN BELLO,QUEEN ELIZABETH,INDY AND KUTI HALLS OF RESIDENCE,College of medicine and lots more (3)can u pls name any university library in nigeria apart 4rm Kenneth Dike Library dat runs 24/7 library system(4)ur acclaimed OAU dat can't represent Nigeria in international competition-eg 2008 edition of d Zain African Challenge,OAU didn't pass d first stage of d preliminaries and d Lyk of FUTA qualified to represent Nigeria which UI later won(5)about her admission policy,it is called UI MODEL...It has bin in existence since 2005 and its beneficial for dem....dey give equal chances to qualified Ist n 2nd choice candidates unlike ur acclaimed OAU.....so u r in d opinion of hiding students' results...UI will definitely not do dat.if u r good,UI will tell u dat u r good buh if otherwise,dey will definitely inform u...UI appreciates excellence...list of students with first class have bin published in d bulletin and university website...list of students dat have bin asked to withdraw from dere departments or University was also published in d bulletin and UI website...I REST MY CASE...UI is indeed THE FIRST AND THE BEST...

Sentimental? Whats d meaning of that word?
Frustrate? How? When?
Check my comments again & u'll find out d@ am not comparing anytin in oau to d@ of u.i.
>
what am i doing? U're being forced to show comparisons btw u.i & oda skuls & u're doing d@ with flying colors (this time arguing instead of analysing).
>
read well again...i only said ''hav u eva heard of ben carson's college of medicine, babcock...
Did i say it was better dan d@ of u.i?
>
u.i's method of postume is surely an interesting model.
Only God knws y dey're changing tactics. In my opinion, it seems a bit too early.
>
most of u guys comments are filled with revenge, bitterness & anger. Its understandable.
Pushing pple to d wall can really make dem say things indeed.
I CAN CLEAR MYSELF IN EVERY COMMENT I MAKE & WHERE DERS A MISTAKE, IT WILL BE REGRETTED.
U might hav problems clearing urs if u dont read critically.

shakur07: dats d more reason dey r usually interested in few candidates writing dia pume exam cos ** d invitation n shortlistn process is for selecting d best outta d best ** also pple nowadays r scared of chosing UI ** cos u will see pesin wit low ability in practicals while in sec skool also clamouring for medicine ** i Fink its proper for a skool to scrutinize its candidates wella **moreova Y on earth will i be scared of ma results being shown to everybody sinz av finished ma homework b4 attemptin d exam ** bros its better u face d reality and stop beefing UI

beef u.i? For w@?
I dint get admitted into a polytechnic, so y shud i beef a fed uni d@ has d same standard as d one am in?

Teaser4: hey bro....hope u r enjoying ur hols

normal normal

emmyeuler1: me no sure say u get work ooo....u go leave ur thread kom dey argue with guyz here

if u had work to do, will u be here posting? Plus its no argument, just analysis.
So w@s d point using foul language when making analysis...if d comments irritates u, must u counter it with foul language to show d class d@ u can snap so badly?

[quote author=Dr.'Hesjay]Hahaha....lwkmd
u don read dis one sha!!!
And i'm stl on it,neva argue foolishly!!....when u dnt knw things,u keep shut!!![/quote]dont make me sound immature but if u quote my message with foul language again, am afraid i'll ignore it dont make me.
>
i dont care if ur analysis (not counter argument) is right in d end, dont try to show d world or ur skul d@ d influence of foreign movies is taking its toll on u.
I DONT CARE BUT I WILL NOT ACCEPT THAT.
I just hope we undastand each other

AmiableJay: Do I need to define transparency for you?
Well I didnt argue U.I's transparency on the premisses of cheap registration and by my definition of transparency, I mean U.I's admission is publicised for public scrutiny. U.I is a school that has a name to protect. That's why there is little or no controversy about U.I's admission unlike O.A.U and others where the school invites triple the amount of students they are able to admit,for their post jamb(Except for this year that O.A.U invited fewer candidates.
There is no discrimination in the admission system,once you get the right score, whether you are HAUSA, IBO or YORUBA, you are in. In U.I,you know the reason(s) why you are not admitted. There is no manipulations or whatsover which are rife in UNILAG and even O.A.U.. These religiously contribute to U.I's transparency that other schools lack! Unless,you are not that good in English you wont grasp my concept of transparency and point of correction, not all Unis publish the post utme score. Unibadan the first and the best does that on the school website. Now tell me, does O.A.U do that?
...

Btw,your number 3.. That she(UNILORIN) doesn't admit the supremacy of U.I doesn't repeal the fact that U.I is the best. Ofcourse,no one will openly admit that someone is better than him!
I am insulted if you think U.I's college of medicine is second to any in Nigeria! Is it the size or the equipments? Ooops:-/.. U.I's college of medicine spearheaded medical researches right from 1940s till 1970 when the funding from FG decline. Even at that time,U.I's medicine still towered highest till now when funding have sufficiently increased.
Finally, I've been to O.AU before so I know what I'm saying! I will urge you to come here to see things for yourself. U.I road network is better than O.A.U's.
If I were to be subjective in my analysis, why would I agree that O.A.U is better than U.I infrastructure wise?
Bro,abeg come to U.I before making shallow comments here.

not all Unis publish the post utme score... If u had a low score in ur postume, wud u be happy if someone else saw it? Results shud be made available first, to the eye of the person that wrote it.
U talked bout manipulations being rife in oau & unilag?
Just to remind those reading that we're only analyzing not arguing...
Hmmmm, but question is why is u.i changing its method of admitting students in recent times? (no more interactive session...cos they've probably found out d damage it was doing).
Or did u forget d former process? Am also not oblivious of it. Whereby even if u get 300 in jamb, u cant be guaranteed d@ u'll be invited 4 screening cos dey hav an o'level screening to do?
Do u realise hw many nigerian students it frustrated? (not to mention how many nigerians lambasted that process in d media.)
Why is u.i from d onset so interested first in how outstanding candidates o'level result is? Have they forgotten that d main purpose why d postume was created was b'cos pple questioned Jamb's credibility? Or do u want to also shy away from d fact d@ waec or any ssce exam is no longer credible?
>
lastly, is d college of medicine of a skul same as their teaching hospital? Just asking

[quote author=Dr.'Hesjay]OMG!!!!....i've neva commented on any of ur foolish arguements buh i'l do dat now!everything u just wrote is poo....pure poo.....do u fink b4 u write at all?
No 1:-U.I admission is transparent as far as i knw ....when we do our postutme,they wl paste d result...Babcock doesnt paste result,they only paste admission list and no one knws how they came about it...If u choose pharmacy in u.i,and u knw dat d quota is 80,Immediately they release result,just go and count,if u r among d top 80,u wl surely b admitted..Tell me which skl does dat!

As 4 d affiliate stuff,4rm ur comment,u v nufn to say again cos everything u wrote is nonsense!

As 4 d college of medicine,...!!!LMAO....cnt believe u just compared COMUI WIF BABCOCK!!...do u knw babcock is nt yet accredited by MDCN??
In Nigeria,only 1 private skl is accredited,..Igbinedion
anyways,i just hope u knw d meaning off MDCN cos u r daft!!!
U.I has bn verified by different international organisations as d best medical college in tropical africa..d WACS,WACP(dats if u knw their meanings) hv all selected U.I as d best...nt only 4 d equipments,buh because of d academic process,the method of learning etc.......
Y do u fink skls like KCL,UCL n co beg U.I medicine lecturers to come to them.....Ask any doctor in ur house(dats if u hv one) which hospital is d best in Nigeria,they wl tell u its UCH...followed by LUTH...Babcock isnt even among d top 50.....they just hv nice buildings!!
UCH is d only teaching hospital dat was built 4 d purpose by d british,on a british style wif full equipments cos it was an affiliate of University of Lonndon as at dat tym!!
More than 45% of d CMDs in naija graduuated from U.I...
Come to dentistry,do u knw y it was given d title-'Pan African Faculty of Dentistry?'...sure u dnt...
Its d centre of excellence 4 dentistry in Africa....D best Dental Faculty in Africa and ammong d first 10 in d world!!.....d Dental Faculty with d highest number of Profs in Naija.....
In their Physiotherapy,d same thing......D very best in Naija....

Ben carson college.....my ass!!!
A skl dat only has medicine n nursing,...u dnt even knw anything abt Medical College .....

Better b doin ur homework b4 u post here,...Dnt let me pass U.I agggression on u!


You can check here http://mdcnigeria.org/MedSchools.htm to knw d accredited medical skls in Nigeria,Bacbock is no where to b found!
One thing i want u to knw is its nt d building dat qualifies a medical college,its d intellectuals,d method of learning,d method of clinical rotations and d equipments(in equipments,u.i is second to none in naija).....
LASU,LAUTECH,OOU teaching hospitals are better than ur so called babcock![/quote]I stopped reading when d use of foul language came up more than once.
Not for me

shakur07: i swear UI na FK skool sha ** xee as dem dey toy wif awa emotions** Smh for dem oh

someone talked bout her being inconsistent. It now seems to be manifesting.
She says one thing & does d other

[quote author=morgan**g]story!story!!***talking about inviting u are talking neatness'''watz our business with that for now[/quote]are ur eyes really wide open or u're sleep typing as usual?

Taylor184: Babcock university wey no fyn reach uniabuja permanent site....abeg stop mentionin babcock...Go to sango ota(convenant uni) or abuad,and c dat babcock is a learEner.....I repeat it again,UNIABUJA perm syt is beta dan babcock uni..

am thinking ders a slight problem somewhere. Or do u hav problems with reading between d lines? I said babcock's college of medicine not d entire skul.

Leystra: Yes...

d@s gud. I pray u get

AmiableJay: lol,did I mention the entire campus? My line of argument is that Unibadan's halls are way far better (neater, more beautiful and more conducive) than O.A.U's.
Well,O.A.U may be more beautiful than U.I infrastructure-wise but if we jutaxpose the Institutions in every ramifications, UNIBADAN is the best oh.. You need facts? Okay!
Facts :
1. Most transparent admission process [The admission processing fee is 2k and you can check your result for free!]Your results are published too! Tell me, is there any school that does this in Nigeria.
2. U.I has the highest number of professors in Nigeria. Most of those V.Cs in other schools are 'omo' U.I. Unijos,unilorin were once affiliates of U.I!
3. U.I zoological garden is second to none.
4.Our college of medicine is the first and indisputably the best! It's stocked with modern equipments which other Teaching hospitals (OAUth) lack.
5. The road network is way better than O.A.U's. Ask any IFE students! All the roads in U.I are tarred compared to what obtains in other schools.
6. In terms of maintenance of the so-called infrastructure U.I is better than O.A.U. That's why Mellanby Hall which was built before Independence still looks neater than your earliest hall!
7. Awolowo hall is the biggest hall in West Africa!
8. Kenneth Dike library is inarguably the biggest in West Africa after UNN's library.
9. Our academic achievements both past and present supercede O.A.U. Is it the U.I law student who led the Law school or the U.I engineering student who was nominated google ambassador. Our alumnis: Wole Soyinka, Chinua Achebe, Isidore Ikpekwhor, Chika(The best mathematician) and others just to mention a fragment few!
These are just few of the reasons why U.I is better than O.A.U.

Let me just quickly comment on a few.

No. 1., it will be one of d biggest jokes i've eva seen if u say d@ u.i's admission process is transparent. How is it transparent? Oh commo!!! U.i is just trying to adopt a style diff from d@ of other unis & its frustrating students big time (its sad u havnt realised d@). And pls if d admission process of a uni is transparent., it has nothing to do with amount of registration, cheapness, excetra. Lest ur well constructed counter-argument will become invalid.
About skuls publishing names, almost all unis do d@. Just recently, babcock published theirs in d punch, so w@ re u saying?
>
No. 3., so many unis re also affiliates to others & mind u its not only u.i.
If unilorin was an affiliate to u.i as just advertised, y does she try everytime to bite d fingers d@ fed her by always leapfrogging u.i as no.1 in d country?
>
4. College of medicine? Oh common, d@s very shallow of u. I aint gonna comment on d@ cos i dont knw hw d@ of odas look like.
Ever heard of bencarson's college of medicine - babcock? Oh, anyway we were talking bout federal isnt it?
8. U shud be more objective sometyms when making analysis.
Ur road network? Better dan d@ of ife? All d roads re tarred compared to d@ of oda skuls?
What on earth are u basing dis on? Obviously u've neva been to ife...smh. Even in unn, all roads re tarred, not to mention polytechnics, and talk more of ife.
Let me stop here. Dont wanna make u guys get sick of overscrolling

Teaser4: My candid advice to those that didn't scored upto 200....keep trying....when I wrote my 1st post_utme in OAU,I scored 148...that was 2009....I wrote another one in 2011 ...I had 208...that's it. I never lose hope.... After 5 years spell at home,no admission...I don't want to go to Polythecnis....I had to wait...here I am... Best of Luck....

u're really on point. At least thats a moral booster

Leystra: 236... Psychology

are u kidding me? So u applied for psychology?
Nice one
