you wouldn't know you re making a mistake until you have made it, so cool down

No worst course to study. Just be smart, you would be fine, the world there is survival of the fittest. Make sure you have skills businesses need.

Petroleum Engineering... My course.









Without connection in Nigeria forget it... Na lecturing you go end or teaching like me.

Cultural and creative arts

How is linguistics as an answer

To me banking n finance, biochemistry

2scorehigh:
In your own opinion, what is the worst university course for someone to study?

Worst in the sense that you will not advise anyone to go for the course.

Worst in the sense that even if you are paid so well to do the course, you will gladly refuse/reject the offer.

Worst in the sense that if you have the power to delete the course from school curriculum forever, you won’t waste any time in doing so...

If you ask me, I'd say it's Microbiology.

I have absolutely no interest at all in the course. In fact, everything about Microbiology gives me the heebie-jeebies!

I asked a friend, and she said it's Music for her.

What about you?

What is/are your reasons for saying so?

Let's hear from you...

i read French and I’m in trouble

phemmyfour:
Guidance and Counseling.... miserable course

State your reasons.

Office technology and management, library and information science, public admin, purchasing and supply, are all useless courses to study in the university...

Zoology

Library science is the worst course
I studied it o

Bros please continue, chemistry is a very fine course. I remember I was studying chemistry back then but decided to change course in 200l for two reason I believe I couldn't make 2:1 n that's my target n secondly because of the sadist lecturer (2 already picking on me) so I left for agriculture n made my target but due to lack of jobs for agricultural students I went into painting and decoration and that's where I know the value of chemistry. From paints, cosmetology, cement, petrochemicals, plastic and polymers, even in my field agrochemical (pesticides, herbicides, fertilizers etc) there's need for a chemistry to know how those chemicals react. If I did graduate from chemistry with my 2:2 I will be living far better than now

I remember when our senior colleagues were complaining that the lab technicians at the hospital didn't allow them come close to the laboratory equipments. They said Biochemistry is not a professional course. Whereas, the test they take with the machines are pure biochemical tests.

So much hate and gate keeping in the health sector.

Microbiology is worse tho. I don't even regard that course.

The problem in Nigeria is that the course is already saturated with too many graduates having a B.Sc in Biochemistry. Almost every university in Nigeria offers biochemistry and year in year out they keep churning out graduates of biochemistry. Besides, they are not even properly trained in terms of practical exposures.

By the way, the purpose of BSc biochemistry is not for you to work in medical laboratory. It is a research-based discipline aimed primarily at producing researchers in the field! But here in Nigeria, the purpose has been lost and that is why graduates of biochemistry now see medical lab scientists as enemies and rivals. Meanwhile, medical laboratory scientists are the ones that have the requisite training to man clinical labs. Check your curriculum and compare it with that of medical laboratory science, you'll discover (if you're honest enough) that there's a whole lot of difference.

I think the way forward is for the NSBMB and other stake holders to go back to the drawing board, rediscover the purpose of the course and focus on it, whilst cutting down on the number of intakes into the program and equipping training labs so as to impart the right practical exposures to the students.

This is coming from a biochemistry graduate(2-1) who is now a pharmacist.

Biochemistry... They can hardly fit in anywhere without discrimination; an extremely difficult course with almost zero job opportunity in Nigeria.

Exactly

Dpaulie:
Zoology

Lie. Biochemistry abeg

Exactly. A very difficult course with ZERO job opportunity, except u want to be a lecturer

Studied intl relations
Still a usd millionaire
Fck this mentality

Marine Engineering. Studied that, parents spent so much and I have only made 150k from it. Thank God for IT

Which I. T are u into please

MrThisandthat:
Don't know about the worst... But the most useless is Estate Management!

I thought de said is de best course. My brothers studied it. And de are doing fantastically well

Shakkurr:

Chemistry is good. Buh bio-chemistry is bad

What we have in Nigeria are no Universities but glorified Secondary schools. All you hear of is Bsc philosophy, psychology , Bsc Political administration. etc .etc.

vickydevoka:

Which I. T are u into please

I am a platform developer.

Shakkurr:

People are telling me I will end up a teacher

What's so bad about teaching ?

Bighead95:
All courses are nonsense in nigeria ...

Exept
Computer science and any medical courses

Exactly. I. T de really help engineering guys. Whether mechanical, agric, civil, marine or electrical. Everybody just enter I.T

Why most courses are useless is because most people study them in other to get employed. If had study to come out and solve a problem relating to what u studied. I bet u, u will understand that it is good to had study what u studied.

Can we talk privately

StreetFight:

Engineering a bad field? You need brain examination. The phone you used to type this nonsense, who manufactured it? Psychologist or Guidance and Counsellor ?

Engineering favors some buh didn't favor some. Most of my mechanical engineering friends went into I. T or real estate

Iz Olite!

Industrial Chemistry is fast becoming so docile in this country. No job for them

Mrice22:
Very useless course.. you can't fit in any medical aspect but can only assist but you are already doing the job.... in my level that time we are 700..100 guys and 600 she's species

Lol. Wic course. My papa tell me say any course I see say Women plenty pass men too much make I leave am. Lol.

I remember when I got admission back then to read Nursing, there is this girl in the class, very brainy like me*winks*
In 200level, she applied for change of department from nursing to biochemistry, according to her, Biochemistry will push her above nurses in the medical field,
Lalalalala
5yrs after graduation,she started regretting the decision after failing to secure a job while we were changing jobs like tissue.
She later went to a school of nursing and rejoined us in the profession .

Medical laboratory scientist are the only recognized people to handle hospital lab , they don't give breathing space to all these Microbiology, Biochemistry people.
Another No-No courses for me are Human Anatomy and Human physiology 4yrs program
They should be scrapped out.

A relative of mine want to read Agricultural Economics and he needs my advice
Anyone knows anything about the course?
