Cardiojosh:
Replace New School chemistry with lamlad chemistry, I give you my word, you'll smash chemistry with it.

For physics go for the science physics, stay at it there.

For biology, go for explicit Biology.

These are tailored Jamb materials.

Download the Myschoool app, feast on the exam mood, at least twice daily, do corrections.
After 5 days you would have done 10 utme, take the average and fight to increase it the next few days.

You don't have time again. Get this materials.

And I honestly thought I replied this
Hello Cardiojosh, have you used “Essential biology” to know in comparison with “Explicit Biology” ?

I never used Explicit Biology but hey, Essential Biology is a great book.

I would suggest that since the writer started off with Essential Biology, he should just continue with it, I strongly recommend it.

And this is why they warn against relying on ai

If you were actually a medical student or if you had actually gone to medical school or you had studied with people in medical school you would not be posting this nonsense

Medical students first mbbs exam is in their 300l. This is a hard barrier they have to pass before they can cross over to actual clinicals in the teaching hospital. Not everyone passes this exam on their first try. Four papers and you must pass all four. Pass three resit. Pass two resit. Anything less you repeat the year. Fail again and you likely have to exit med school.


According to your copy and paste Ai post a person with a 2.1 is deemed to have passed the first mbbs exam and is ready for clinicals.
I patiently read through this. grin

Pointless. Anyone who wants to study medicine should inculcate the habit of studying from an early age. JAMB is literally A level exams imposed on O level students. Anyone not smart enough to realize that is not worth studying medicine.
Right smiley

This must be a fake or made up story. There is no way someone will lose youth with a four to five year course and still hold medicine in mind.

Go and make money in the real world instead of chasing marks on a paper. There is no greater joy.
While I understand you from your end and also understand the point the writer whom you quoted is at right now, I only wish you are able to see how the writer viewed your comment, lol. It’s difficult redirecting his vision at this point.

Now, one last question for you and it’s coming from a genuine place, have you made the kind of money you want him to make yet ? Are you happy right now in wealth ?

Verance:
The bar to study MBBS in Nigeria is inordinately high because the average Nigerian parent want their children to become a medical doctor, therefore the demand to study MBBS is disproportionately higher compared to other science courses.

For example the year I gained admission to study Chemistry Education (by choice), according to JAMB statistics, only 8 people chose that course for that school that year, on the other hand, 13,000 candidates chose MBBS for that school that year, mind you, the school can only admit 100 each year for MBBS and out of this 100, about a third will come in through connection. So you have 13,000 JAMBITES in a rat race for 70 merit slots. This means that if you picked a random 180 JAMBITES that choose MBBS for that school for that year, only one person would be admitted. Guess who that one person would be? an academic freak and in many cases someone already in the University studying a different course while applying each year for medicine. Hence, you need to score 330+ to be fully confident that you will be that 1/180 persons.

A student that scores 280 is good, 300 is great, 320 is excellent but might not be good enough to get MBBS on merit in a public university in Nigeria. Imagine how hard it is for a JAMBITES of this generation, highly distracted by social media to score 330+. Though compared to my days, UTME questions are softer but the students I encounter in the classroom today have little interest in studying their books spontaneously, which explains the statistics of why it more difficult to score 200 today than when UTME was paper based.

Length and breath of what I have said is: The fact that one doesn't get admitted to study MBBS despite giving the ULTIMATE preparation in terms of study doesn't make the person a bad student. Only those who are exceptionally (freakingly) good academically can score high enough to get MBBS on merit in a public university. The bar is a relative lower in private universities but I bet you know the figures involved.

You may consider other equally good courses to study. I studied Education and currently work as teacher and I can boldly say that my salary plus private lessons in a month beats what the average medical doctor earns in a month in my locality here in Lagos, even if I don't have properties or a large bank account (just like many doctors who started practicing from the time I graduated from school), I can feed myself and family well enough, dress fine and afford a modest accomodation.

I've spoken here based on my decade old experience as a science teacher teaching UTME prep classes.
God bless you for your service smiley
I respect Tutors so much, I can vividly remember how one of them changed things around drastically for me, he was an Engineering student who once wanted Medicine. In 2013, after failed attempts and poor performances he passionately put me through the basics and up until this day, his name remained etched in my mind.

I missed this, so sorry.
The fastest way to overcome a situation is to go right through it and not around it.

You just have to read over and over until an information becomes a reflex. Some people are able to achieve that at a single shot, others might need to read multiple times. I would also add that, for first time jambites, it might not be easy, i gradually raised my score from 232 first sitting to 282 at the second before hitting 300+ at my third in 2016.

Your memory plays a big role in performing well, after reading, please endeavor to memorize, it is very important.

Lastly, with the right textbooks, you are good to go, during my time, i never studied past questions, I don’t really know if it was a good or a bad habit, I just saw it as a waste of time, I like sinking information first and properly, I might glance through the past question to have a clue of how the questions are set and the expected approach to their answers but never to depend on it, I would only see a past question at leisure and that habit walked me through Med School and Out.
I used ;

1 : New school Chemistry and Conscise Chemistry ( I used two different chemistry Text. For the second, I honestly don’t know how you can get access to that book now, it covers most of the inorganic part of chemistry so well, esp getting a strong hold of Metals and non Metals and all their properties. )

2 : Essential Biology
3 : Anyakowa Physics ( I think it’s also called the New School Physics, can’t remember )
4 : I didn’t really take English serious, but you should, I already had a good foundation, read only the Novel recommended for each jamb year and made Jotters for the storyline and important events. If I am to recommend based on old knowledge, I would say, the A to Z USE OF English text book

I am glad my name came second in your mention smiley

Honlucas:
As a super lion you will get admission.

In previous years you won't get mbbs with this score.
Then cutoff is like 310.
Due to the massive failure in jamb this year I don't see the cutoff reaching 300 sef.
So you will get admitted.

Remember unn brought their cutoff to sit for postutme to 160 . This happened for the first time, to show how people failed.

I am a mum based in Nsukka, but got Med Lab through supplementary list instead of Pharmacy.
I deferred the admission cause I just gave birth then and financial constraints.
How possible is it to change to Pharmacy after my first year? I don't picture myself going to UNEC. It's not going to be possible moving from Nsukka campus cause of my family and I have no help.
Its is very possible to switch to Pharmacy ma.
So sorry my reply is coming months after, i've had a really busy schedule in College.
