For one it is resistant to cancer. They also live up to 28 years, which is unheard of in mammals of its size. It seemingly does not age much in those 28 years either. It remains “young, healthy and fully fertile for almost all its days, which for an elderly animal is equivalent to an 80-year-old woman having the biological make-up of someone 50 years younger.”

The naked mole rat is used in both cancer research and the study of aging. The naked mole rat could unlock the secrets to immortality…

That naked mole rat,I remember one nairalander creating a thread saying he found it under his room

Stegomiah:
To say medicine and surgery is the most difficult course is an understatement.

For starters, in 18months you will have to do biochemistry, anatomy and physiology with an additional course. The whole of it, when you think it's the same courses each one of it some takes 4-5 years to study

In 4 months you will have to finish the whole pharmacology text
What it takes pharmacy and pharmacology students 5 years

Another 4 months to finish the whole pathology text
Pathology is divided into morbid anatomy, chemical pathology, hematology and microbiology
Microbiology is divided into bacteriology, fungalogy, parasitology and virology
All these are specialties, people take years to students
The clinicals is mad, medicine, surgery, o&g, peadiatrics.....

It's only in medicine 24hrs ain't enuf
Medicine makes extraordinary students ordinary
Turns humans into beast
I had to revise 175detailed slides in 20mins and know everything in there
It frustrates you
The stress, calls, wardrounds, practicals, annoying lecturers, exam tension, thrills

You have to have high tolerance, discipline and endurance level to survive

The exams are not here, time always insufficient

Negative marking, am not sure other departments does that

Lectures 8am to 5pm, evening you dey clinic
You don't have your saturdays to you everytime

I don't know about your medical school, but mine is really crazy in here
So don't even try comparing medicine with any other course

Mind you the best of the best are in medicine, many headboys in ma set, state champions, national champions, yet some still get withdrawn, majority keep on struggling.
Medicine is depressing, sometimes not mentally owkay, schizophrenic...

I don't expect you to understand, only one that passes thru the process will

If you so mad try to get admission to study medicine first, and not transfer aggression of not being able to secure an admission thus ridiculing how difficult medical school is

A pharmacy student does not spend five years studying pharmacology alone.Pharmacy is as tough as Medicine.

Your O'level point will be calculated like a single sitting.
All they require of you is to have credit passes in the required subjects.

ok......thank you very much

Mhizfateemah:
can we chat on WhatsApp? am an aspirant, I want to ask a predegree student something pls.

No problem,u can drop your whatsApp number or send it to me through mail

Orezy5:


I'm a Medical student in OAU and I can authoritatively tell you that OAU accepts two sittings for any course.

wow.....thanks,Is it going to be calculated just like a single sitting or there will be some deductions all in the name of two sittings.Thanks once again

Zico5:

Just want to come in, OAU accept two sittings for any course. Just go online and confirm just that I don't know if there is modulation for using two sittings. Don't allow anybody to confuse u, some graduates of OAU here will be able to guide u right.

I've checked online and it said two sittings is accepted,just want to confirm because some bloggers can be so misleading.
Thank u very much

OwoukoUrua:
why not put in for a Federal University that does not lay emphasis on your O.level grades?

I'm doing pre degree in OAU,so I can't pick any other uni except OAU

MrEgghead:
Make sure you find out to be on the safer side..I witnessed a guy's admission forfeiture in UNIBEN because he was using two sittings..I felt sorry for that guy after everything he had passed through to gain admission.

Ok.....thank u very much......I will make more inquiries

dunsin125:
Most schools don't accept two sittings for medicine, even my friend with two sittings had to registered for Gce second series last year.

Ok......thanks.i actually have a complete result in one sitting but it is filled with 1B and 4C's.
I have another one much more better than the first one above but maths spoil it.
The school I chose(OAU)gives 10% to o'level(there is a way to calculate it based on ur grade in the five core subjects).If I use two sittings,I will have a higher percentage than using the first one with 1B and 4C's.That's what is giving me headache.
Once again,thanks bro

dunsin125:
No, you can't.

pls are u? sure because someone told me u can use two sittings irrespective of the course

Please can someone use two sittings (o level result) to apply for medicine in OAU?
urgent reply needed please?
