The years I wasted in school.
If I used those years to learn skill or go for boi boi.
My life would have changed forever.
Your parents sent you to school, and a day hardly goes by without you blaming them for your "misfortune".

Now, imagine what you would've done if they didn't/couldn't send you to school...

Chiboy, part of your problem [infact major] is ingratitude, but you're yet to accept it.

Everyone and everything are to blame, except you.

Wake up!

Medicine, almost expiring? Are you saying we'll no longer need doctors in the nearest future?

Nurses, what are they without doctors and pharmacists?
Do they diagnose?
Most of what they know, they learned by following doctors' instructions.
Medicine is not highly sought after like nursing because in a hospital facility, you might have 10 Doctors and 100 nurses.


Nurses are needed more than Doctors in every hospital or healthcare facility.


And for a person that studied medicine to japa from Nigeria now is very difficult more than in the past. I speak based on real life experiences not hearsay.


It is easier for a Nurse to migrate abroad from Nigeria than for a Medical Doctor in Nigeria.


And like I said again, the world need more number of Nurses than Doctors.


And you are wrong that Nurses learnt what they know about healthcare from Doctors, that is a wrong assumption and mostly applicable to Nigerian quack hospital settings where hospitals hire quack Nurses who get tutored on the job by watching and working with Doctors.

The worst part is that this cockerel never passed through the 4 walls of a classroom and only learnt English through Tinsel series.

It is late for him to do boi boi for any Igbo business man now because he has passed the age for that.


The igba boi apprenticeship system is like company trainee program, both of them come with an age range/restriction. Once you are above 19yrs, it will be difficult and in fact impossible for you to find any Igbo businessman ready/willing to take you as his nwa boi. The next option for him is "igba oso ahia/ofia" which have no age restriction but requires total humility, smartness, being friendly and jovial too.



And to the original topic, going to higher institution now requires wisdom. You don't just enrol because other of your mates are doing so or because you want to answer graduate. You must be very cautious in selecting course to study. Many courses being studied in Nigerian higher institutions today have become obsolete and needs to be removed from the curriculum and replaced with courses relevant to today's global needs.


For science students, they should consider the below courses:

1.) Nursing science
2.) Radiography
3.) Physiotherapy
4.) Laboratory science is not too bad
5.) Pharmacy is not too bad
6.) Civil Engineering
7.) Welding Technology as a course
8.) Carpentry as a course
9.) Mechatronics & Robotics Engineering
10.) Information Technology with specialization in Cyber Security



Arts students can go for:

1.) English language
2.) Accounting is not too bad
3.) Supply Chain Management & Logistics
4.) Digital Marketing and Artificial Intelligence
I like how you carefully didn't include "Medicine and Surgery" for science students.
If not that I was able to japa ehn, frustration would have killed me in Nigeria.

School is never the problem. It's not a waste. It's about how we handle it.

During school, learn a skill and start to use it. Don't focus only on academics, except you want to further in the academics or you have a good support system.

If you're done from school, it's not too late as well. The pressure might just be higher.

Just say you regret not leaning in school

School has given you all it takes to be creative

And who told you medicine is few students or graduates!

Well my main point of responding to you is about the mass comm.

If you stand out well and have a good foundation(perspectives), you will definitely get a career in mass communication.
motymop:
What do you study at school?

Obviously if you study mass communication, psychology, libary science and those courses that everyone are doing,after graduation, it will be filled with regrets

If you study medicine, nursing, dentistry and science courses like petrochemical engineering or even geology, you will always get jobs maybe not at first application but you will eventually get one

Always go for courses that are rear but has high demands in the market

Never ever study courses where everyone want to study

For instance mass communication..lot of students but demand in the market is low

Medicine, few students and lot of demand in the market

You've created 952 (nine hundred and fifty-two) meaningless threads in your less than 5 years on Niarland with this moniker, and almost 5 times the number with your other monikers.

My thoughts and prayers are with you.

For those who want to further in the academics, those ones who would like to become lecturers or researchers, it's important they graduate the first degree with an excellent grade (distinction, second class upper type of things). It makes things easier for their next steps. Learning a skill might be a distraction for such people.

Oh, okay.
