DontBullshitMe:
UBA has offered to see you through school and UniUyo or whatever is your dream institution.

That's extremely laughable.

Can someone knock sense into her and direct her to the path of Unilag or UI?
And you believe that you have sense?

I still miss my redmi 8 badly. I thought redmi 9 will be better than redmi 8 in battery duration, but i don't know why even after buying redmi 9 I'm still missing my redmi 8. Redmi 9 battery doesn't serve me as my 8 used to. Even despite the fact that it's a new phone, my old redmi 8 battery last longer than it undecided

Forget that first drop, most important thing is that your battery lasts. Some phone's batteries can take up to 30 minutes to drop from 100-99%, but will surely drop to 70% faster than yours. Moreover, that battery that has remained at 100% for over an hour has already depleted to less than 95% in real time; he'll get his real battery level when he reboots.
Thanks boss for the enlightenment

Well crafted words sir. What you said about Plab and USMLE is very valid but I think all interested medical students should always apply for plab or USMLE if they are capable even the government school graduates cos what these guys don't pay in cash, they pay 10 folds in stress.

By the way, I didn't know that the famous protein0 is a medic oo. Boss abeg can you help secure an iPhone 6s plus 32gb deal. I have been looking for it all over NL. Got someone that want to buy it.

Phones › What Do If Your Data Gets Exhausted In The Middle Of A Google Play Store Downloa by OwoukoUrua(op): 5:19pm On Nov 19, 2020
Exhausting your data in the middle of a Google Play Store download can be very frustrating as Google does not include a pause/resume button in its Play Store. Imagine downloading an application of 4GB and your data exhausts at 3.9GB. You will be definitely pained when you realise that you will have to start the download afresh. The following tips can help forestall such an occurrence.
If your data gets exhausted in the middle of a Play Store download, switch off your data and "minimize" the Play Store. You read that right — minimize not close. Secondly, do not clear cache and disable all settings that clears cache automatically (alternatively, you can exempt Google Play Store from such optimization settings). Thirdly, exempt Google Play Store from all settings that close background apps after a while.
Having done the above, you can now switch on your data when you have data available and your download will resume automatically.

Note: If you wish to use the internet without resuming the download, restrict Play Store from using data.

Not gonna dispute that but what I am pointing out is the headline makes it seems Don accepted only the Note 8 but before this, fans contributed to get him an iPhone 12 Pro Max.

In other words, he got both phones and no one knows which he's using as his daily driver yet.
Damn! I find this shii funny . . . Like he can't afford an iPhone 12 pro max?

Education › O'level And JAMB Subject Combination For Pharmacology by OwoukoUrua(op): 3:24pm On Nov 15, 2020
What is Pharmacology?

Pharmacology is a branch of medicine and pharmaceutical sciences concerned with the study of the interactions that occur between a living organism and drugs — chemicals that affect normal or abnormal biochemical function.
Pharmacology is divided into two major areas — “pharmacodynamics” which studies the effects of drugs on biological systems, and “pharmacokinetics” which studies the effects of biological systems on drugs.
Note: *Pharmacology is often confused with Pharmacy but
the two terms are not synonymous.
Pharmacology is a biomedical science concerned with the
research, discovery and characterization of drugs WHILE
Pharmacy is a health services profession concerned with the
application of pharmacological principles in clinical settings
(dispensing of drugs and drug information).
Simply put, Pharmacology is a science-oriented
research field WHILE Pharmacy is a direct patient care
practice.
*To be in charge of a pharmacy store in Nigeria, you
must be licensed by the Pharmacists Council of Nigeria
(PCN). Unfortunately, the license is only given to graduates of
Pharmacy. This implies that a pharmacologist cannot run a
pharmacy store legally in Nigeria except he/she is also a
qualified and licensed pharmacist.
However, this does not change the fact that anyone
with the financial capability can own a pharmacy store but
impliessthat such person will require the services of a licensed
pharmacist to run the store.


Career Prospects in Pharmacology

Pharmacology as a career offers exciting prospects as it is directly involved in the research, discovery and characterization of drugs which are indispensable tools in medicine.

Career Paths
The various career paths available under Pharmacology include;
1. Clinical Pharmacology: Clinical Pharmacologists study the effects of drugs on diseases, their effects on humans, their interactions with other chemical substances, and how diseases can change the effects of drugs.
2. Toxicology: Toxicologists study poisonous substances, where they are found and how they affect humans. They also study the adverse effects of drugs on humans.
3. Chemotherapy: Chemotherapies are concerned with the development and study of drugs that kill kill cancer cells and microbes without destroying healthy cells.
4. Neuropharmacology: As the name implies, Neuropharmacology ists study the effects of drugs on the nervous system.
5. Industrial Pharmacology: Industrial Pharmacologists are actively involved in the research and manufacture of drugs in pharmaceutical companies.
6. Pharmacology Education: Pharmacologists who go into academics are saddled with the responsibility of training the next generation of Pharmacologists and conducting academic research.
7. Veterinary Pharmacology: Veterinary Pharmacologists study drugs used in treating animals and how these drugs affect the animals.

Where Pharmacologists Work
Most of the work done by Pharmacologists are carried out in the laboratory. Their major work places are;
1. Hospitals: In hospitals, Pharmacologists are involved in clinical trials and research.
2. Pharmaceutical and Biotech Companies: Here, Pharmacologists do basically two things — research (drug discovery and development) and manufacturing drugs.
3. Universities and other Tertiary Institutions: This is where academic Pharmacologists work. Their primary concern is training the next generation of Pharmacologists and conducting academic research.
4. Civil Service: Pharmacologists can work in federal and state ministries of health, federal and state health/drugs agencies e.g. NAFDAC, NDLEA, NCDC, etc.
Here they help in formulating drug policies, regulations and laws. They also conduct research in government laboratories.

Remuneration
The salary structure of Pharmacologists in Nigeria is not clear as there is not much Pharmacologists in the country. Nevertheless, their salary is expected to be the similar to that of other basic medical scientists (Biochemists, Anatomists and Physiologists).


O'level Subject Combination for Pharmacology

To be considered for admission into Radiography in any Nigerian university offering the course, JAMB mandates that the candidate possess a minimum of credits in the following SSCE(O'level) subjects:
1. English Language
2. General Mathematics
3. Biology
4. Chemistry
5. Physics

This can be in a single sitting WASSCE, GCE or NECO, OR double sittings as combined results are accepted for admission into the course.


List of Universities that offer Pharmacology in Nigeria

The following Nigerian universities offer accredited B.Sc degree programs in Pharmacology;
1. Afe Babalola University, Ado Ekiti
2. Bauchi State University, Gadau
3. Eko University of Medical and Health Sciences, Lagos
4. University of Lagos, Lagos
5. Lagos State University, Lagos
6. Novena University, Ogume
7. Olabisi Onabanjo University, Ago Iwoye
8. Peter and Mary Odili University, Port Harcourt
9. Delta State University, Abrams (offers the course as “Pharmacology and Therapeutics”)

Looking at the above list, you see that most of the schools are in the South West. This is due to most of the Pharmaceutical companies in Nigeria being located in that region.


JAMB UTME Subject Combination for Pharmacology

To gain admission into any Nigerian university, it is very important that the candidate has the correct UTME subject combination for the course he applied for as wrong subject combination can lead to the candidate not being considered for admission.
As stated by JAMB, the correct UTME subject combination for Pharmacology is — Use of English, Biology, Chemistry and Physics.

Note: Olabisi Onabanjo University accepts Mathematics in place of Physics.
