LofP:


I was using Ntel last year on wawu.

This year I am using Airtel.

Airtel 4G sim on 6month smartphone bonanza means I get 3.3gb for N1,000. So 12gb will amount to N4000.

I used to get 12gb for N1,000 on Ntel. Now, it is 6gb for N2,000 valid for 1 week on Ntel.

Heard about the Airtel 4g stuff. The limited time frame is just not so cool to me. I'm in Cross River and I don't think Ntel (is the wawu a tariff?) is available here else I would have definitely preferred it.
I use about 24-30gb monthly.
Oh boy! That's 8-10k monthly.

The answers here are not enough. Guys please if you suggest one gets these: UPS, inverter, generator plus laptop power bank; kindly tell us the cost and how these things are used. Also, the issue of internet should also be considered. Data is expensive in Nigeria, how do you guys also overcome this? Routers, special services? I would really appreciate any information. If you don't wish to share it here, you may send a PM. Thanks Cc: mrphysics KelvinUchiha Iammo tetralogyfallout

'twas really painful, and still is. Outside, people see me walking and smiling, but inside; broken. I haven't lost hope though. I believe JAMB would do something 'bout this.

Seriously, brother, I feel sad and pity that you went through all that for your vision yet wasn't allowed to complete it now. This is the bad side of our nation, hence your doubts.

I must confess, I've not heard a story like this until now. And to even think you'll be invited to Abuja(if you don't reside there) gives me course to question the authenticity of the form and all that. I only believed that hence your name appeared on the manual list, which supposedly has your picture therein, you're be made to fill the form and captured for further checks. However, it's sad the system isn't that way.

Nevertheless, the only way to this, in my opinion, is either you wait on, preserving your phone number and E-mail too(cos your Reg No. was collected)

Or, you step out to their zonal offices within your reach to tender another complaint, making sure you see the coordinator or top officers that may have valid answer or opinion to this trouble. The hardest is to visit the headquarters in Abuja, especially if you have a literate older person that can accompany you. However, I believe you were given a means of recognition, like something to present to that effect. Or, that it's indicated in the manual list that you attended but couldn't write owing to technical hitches.

You see, this is what makes here Nigeria. I pray you receive justice.
My vision can't be stopped! If there's one thing I like about myself is the fact that I'm unflinching in my decision(s). I've not seen or heard any like this either, so this incident is befuddling. I also thought that since my biometric failed, I would be manually reviewed since every other thing matched perfectly. I even wore the same shirt I wore during my registration to the exam centre along with my examination slip which clearly showed 'twas me but the officials didn't let me in. I don't live in Abuja. The the transport fare from my area to ABJ is around 3 to 4k. This is even the least of my worries.
Again, I think, asides other things I ain't aware of, that the only way such an issue could pop up is irregularities upon registration. I want to believe that when you thumbprinted, you confirmed on the screen that it was successful. The cybercafe attendant could make mistakes.
Sincerely speaking, the dude that registered me at the centre couldn't capture my left little finger. My fingers and prints were/are in perfect condition, when I asked him if it won't affect me he said yes; that my other nine finger prints were enough. Now I know he lied. I've been lookin' for him but it seems he's not around. My mail and phone number are very ''active''. Concerning the issue of keeping tabs with the JAMB official, I did try to get his mobile number, but he politely turned me down. A slim Muslim man. He was quite understanding. As to going to their zonal offices, It has never crossed my mind, but I'll put MORE effort into reaching them. Thanks. All in all I hope JAMB considers those candidates that couldn't write due to no fault of theirs.

Admission in UDUS is usually base on UTME score only, if thing does not changed.
That means I would've been in school by now. :oIgnorance is really bad. The distance is much though.

Hi. Final year student,Mbbs, Afe. Afe babalola university is awesome for medicine. You do your preclinicals at Abuad and clinicals at a federal hospital. Minimal distractions, lecturers actually teach, and you understand well. No surprise that we have been winning intermedical school competitions back to back. Downside. Expensive.
Congratulations.

If you have N1.2 million, apply to this new Federal University: Alex Ekwueme Federal Univeristy Ndufu Alike, Ikwo, Ebonyi state. They offer MBBS and its less competitive.

Why is it so expensive? Is this the sum freshers would have to pay or is this the yearly amount? Thanks.

Yeah, dear aspirant, I'm a freshman-- UNICAL, BDS. I must say that the admission process is quite fair. If you're from any of the South-South states, you have an edge (Catchment). If you're from any of the ELDS-Education Less Developed States, you stand a good chance.

At present, the cut off mark for Medsurg is 296 Merit, as published by the school. Then, there were distributions to most states of their specific cut off marks, lower than the general cut off mark for Merit, Catchment or ELDS as the case may be. By the way, Dentsurg is pegged at 272 Merit.

Mode of calculation is UTME score + Post UTME score รท by 2.

The Post UTME was 40 questions to be taken within 20 minutes--- English, Maths, Biology, Physics, Chemistry, Current affairs. English was about 20 questions while others shared the remaining 20 slots. Strictly O level questions!

They also do entertain subscriptions to supplementary admissions. They sometimes refer one to another course also, should one not meet up with one's first choice course. That one, perhaps, has no means of checking it's transparency.

SECOND CHOICE CANDIDATES are not considered!
Wow, BDS; CONGRATULATIONS. I've read and heard lots of negative reviews about UNICAL and how you sometimes have to pay your way through or have an inside man or both in order to get admitted. Thank you Sir for your help.

I'm a 200l student of uniport, actually the admission process in Uniport is quite fair to a large extent. Before I was admitted i knew no one in the admission board but even with my "not too good score of Utme (291)" I was still given medicine and surgery. if you can hit 290 and above give uniport a try I bet you won't regret it.
291 is not a bad score to me though.Congrats to you. How much is their fees?

chukwukapromise:
Good day boss.

I like the fact that you bolded two key words in your post.

Credible and Merit

Now on my own hypothesis, I believe that The order of credibility of MED school in Nigeria spans from:

Federal university-> State university->Private university.

Although they might be a slight variation in the above sequence as some state university are better equipped than some federal university, and same goes to private and state.

So if i can suggest for you(of which I cannot, but can only give you my view), I'll say u first pick A federal university as Your most preferred choice, then a state university as your preferred choice.

Now we've sorted out How to kill the Cow, it's now left for how to cook it.

There are many Federal university(Credible, Because if not credible, they wouldn't have been accredited) out there that offer MBBS as a course. So selecting one should boil down to what you want.

And since you haven't mentioned distance or school fees, but have specifically Stressed MERIT as your Preference then I'll say we take the next bus going to history lane.

The best way to know if a school admit students based on merit is to check their fossil record(No mind me, I mean previous records), and how are we going to do that, let's take and Buttress this criterion which is "Cut off mark".

Some schools do publicize their cut-off mark, others don't.. Have you asked yourself why?.. The one that do have a reason for doing such, why the ones that don't also have a reason for doing such..

I might not rarely know why such is such, but I can only infer that those who publicize their cut off mark does so for transparency, while the other don't want to be accountable for Any complaint.

So if you are looking for a school that would offer you admission based on MERIT, then Try going for schools that Publicize their Cut off mark, that way u would know where the fault cometh from.

So for schools that make public their cut off mark are predominantly schools in the west. Example but not limited to are: UI, Unilag, OAU, Lasu, UNN(East), et cetra. So do your maths based on their previous cut off mark and see if you are worthy to apply in such school.

NOTA BENE: The above mentioned schools are not just competitive, but are super competitive as such sector of the country can be substituted for a metropolis.

The above comment was Navigating according to your request on credibility and merit... But deep down me i would have suggest the unique university of Port Harcourt(uniport), for various reasons, as that(based on my judgement) is The only school in Nigeria that confirms To the qualifications of Cheap, Easy to enter, Good facilities, merit Admission, and above all UNIQUE in her own way...Boss @Donpre and @Brukx can confirm what am saying wink

God bless you Sir. This your post meant a lot.
As for distance, I'm from South-south.
