Just as my boss Pes13 has said, sometimes, things don't go the way you planned it to be.

Sometimes you don't get some things on a platter of gold. You have to go through disappointment, hard work, failure, tears and determination to lay your hands on actualizing your dreams.

What you're about to read is probably the longest message I have ever typed so far in life. Its very very lengthy due to the number of years involved and my wish to share some very personal details. But I assure you its worth reading.

If things went the way I planned, I would probably be a final year Medicine and surgery student at OAU. However, the plan never worked out like that.

From the disappointment of 2011 admission at oau (medicine) and lautech (medicine), I pressed on in 2012, with a jamb score of 242, applying to lautech (anatomy) and futa (biochemistry). I had 59% and 68% respectively, and was subsequently admitted to futa on supplementary list.

This never quenched my ambition to become a practitioner in the medical field. Together with some of my friends then in futa, I picked up 2013 jamb form, scoring 250 with Uniben (Medicine) as my school of choice. I had 66% in the postume and was subsequently admitted for Biochemistry instead. I declined the admission, while a friend of mine was admitted to oau to study medical rehabilitation (physiotherapy).

I moved on to 200L in Futa, still hurting from 2 failed admission attempts at my desired ambition. I went ahead to pick the 2014 jamb form, it was my first time doing jamb on computer. I had a disappointing 230. Based on the advice of a friend, I decided to choose Dentistry, also at Uniben. I had 59% in the postume and was subsequently admitted to study plant science and biotechnology. I smiled at myself the day I checked that admission status. I closed my eyes and shed my tears inside. That same year, a classmate of mine in futa gained admission to study medicine at UI. He's going to 400L now.

I moved to 300L in Futa, and in the year 2015, I decided not to take the jamb form, due to some factors, most of which were personal. Maybe I was discouraged by past failures and inability to break even.

2016 was the darkest and most traumatic of my admission experience. I was already in 400Level. I bought the jamb form with my own money (For the first time) during late registration. It cost me 10 thousand naira.
When I got the date for my exam, it was 1st march, 2016. I was scheduled to also have two first semester exams (BCH 415 and BCH 411) on that same day. To worsen the matter, I couldn't get the center in futa. I was to write in Oau cloud computing auditorium.
I used my influence to persuade my exam officer, and she was able to move only one out of the two papers to the previous day (29th Feb). So, I wrote BCH 415 and 405 on that Monday. I finished around 6:15pm and immediately found my way to north gate to get a bus to Ife. I stayed with my former classmate in faj hall overnight where I had to revise my subject combination, simultaneously reading BCH 411, hoping that I would be able to get to akure before 12pm, the time for the exam.
On the exam date, due to delays and accreditation, the exam that was supposed to start 9:30 started 10:15. We were given 2hrs 45mins. I didn't use up to 1hr 30 mins. I answered all my questions and submitted. Immediately I ran to get a bus to akure but I couldn't get one on time, by the time I got to school, the exam had been written.

That's an automatic carryover, according to school rules.

Well, I braced myself, and had to lie to my parents when the result came out that I missed the exam because the time was changed without me knowing.

About 5 days later, jamb released the results and I found myself staring at 207.
I had 38 in chemistry. The same chemistry that I had never scored below 66.
I felt sad but at the same time happy because I chose UI for dentistry. And for UI, minimum of 200 in jamb qualifies you to wrote postume. I was determined to hit as high as possible in the postume before the minister of education announced cancellation of postume. My hopes were dashed big time.
I applied for the screening last year. I have a very decent o'level and it was able to raise my aggregate to 64.208 but My woes were further compounded when UI released cutoff marks and dentistry was 64.29

I have never cried so much in my life like I did that day.

I decided to put an end to the serial disappointments about my admission. I sealed my mind to any other attempt to become a dentist. Perhaps it wasn't meant for me.

2017 came. I Started my final year in futa. But my friends (the oau guy and another friend in unn 400L medicine) kept persuading me to apply for jamb. For where? The persuasion fell on deaf ears. These guys raised money and sent it to me to pick the form. At that point, I couldn't say no. I picked UI again for dentistry. Jamb came after first semester exams. I wrote it in futa center and I had 295, scoring 76 in the chemistry I had 38 in 2016.

The rest is history.

Today, Monday, 6th November,2017 , between 3:30 and 5:30pm, to the glory of God, I wrote my last examination as a student of biochemistry, Futa, and I hope to resume to the university of Ibadan next year by God's grace.

If I were to pick 3 things that brought me this far, I'd choose
1. God's grace
2. Determination and persistence.
3. Supportive and encouraging friends.

If by any way, you've been disappointed by anything in life, I can vouch for these three things. Once you have them, they'll get you to your dreams.

another piece of advice for aspirants that didn't reach cutoff/ get their course by any means, anything you get right now, please enrol and start. You can always reapply for your desired course later on.


Thank you for reading.
God bless you.

Now what is really my fate. I choose English education meanwhile i scored (71 in P.jamb and 247 in jamb) and i scored 66.365 as aggregate.The cut off mark for English edu is exceedingly high this year compared to the previous years which is a strong indicator that many people choose that course and by normal reasoning they have filled up their quota should i do COC or should i hope for supplementary or second batch admission list?

just as my boss Bobola has opined,go do coc to a more lesser course.....if ui decides to consider u for ur initial course ur COC won't be a problem at all.

"in" for a well know town,city or place..

At" for a place or city that is not generally known by all.


Lagos is known worldwide. So "in" should be used.

He lives in Lagos. He stays at Ikorodu in Lagos.
Not everybody knows Ikorodu so "At" was used.







Na the way I understand am ooo

Queenlovely:
When I read the biography of great men like Albert Einstein, Isaac Newton, Magnus Calsen, Marie Curie etc Tears start dropping from my eyes. These people were not after certificate in schools, they wanted true knowledge. They were curious. Compare them to the idiots we call students today. The students are just after superficial things. I don't want to list the vices these secondary kids involved in. Education has been abused. That is what happens when you make something affordable to masses

Ur last sentence is so so uncalled for..
We Masses shun it....



let me come and be going

lol...wait for the said institution first.... jamb's caps of a thing is not yet stable... many people have been experiencing this even when their skuls are yet to release cutoffs and the rest

There is a every indication that ui will release second list this year as against one list they released last year....

Using last year as a case study,Both cutoff and COC were released together.Those who didn't meet their courses' cutoff were enjoined to change their courses to some courses that their quotas were yet to fill up.
When the list was released those with even 0.1 were not given their initial courses(No post utme last year)


This year only cutoff was released.
Coc is yet to be out..This is a strong pointer that second list would feature this year..


Using 2015 when post utme was last conducted before fg interruption and interference into admission processes as an example,many people I know who were 1,2 and 3 marks short of their cutoffs were still given their initial courses on supplementary list even when they have done COC......


If u are 1 or 3 short of ur course, the probability of u getting ur dream course is high..

U can still do COC but this is just to put u on a more safer side...COC can never be a barrier if ui decided to consider those people with some few marks below their cutoffs











Though, I as a person seriously shun COC or whatsoever.... I always go for what I want....Circumstances cannot pilot my life affairs for me but u are a different person from me.. U know what fits you.

I don't subscribe to COC ish

Atlantia the greedy girl and kingovo I strongly greet u guys
Dr Nltaliban, I commend ur effort here


To those who took their time to wish me congrats, God bless u all immensely


Expect my long epistles later,friends

very possible...I have my clean reasons with me here...will soon modify my post


Unilag post utme only weighed 30%

jamb 50%

olevel 20%.


She scored zero,yes.

what about 70 marks obtainable from jamb and olevel?

presuming she is going for one of all these courses with 50 as cutoff?

my logic Is that she can still make up from jamb and olevel marks even when her post utme score was zero...


The only barrier here is that some schools do disqualify people who didn't meet 50% benchmark in their various post utme exams....

Unilag didn't state that she would disqualify any candidate who didn't get up to 15 from 30 available marks in her post utme (which is 50%)....


my logic is that her jamb and olevel must have be her saving factors here and not connection....



CC:mastermind21
