uumm:
By this time next 2 weeks, most of you- if not all- would have received your first P.D lecture.
Firstly, congrats to you on your admission. I believe my fellow expredites have flooded, and will flood this thread with pieces of advice and necessary bits of information to get you going.
People will tell you to be calm, that all will be well in Moro if you do your best..That's partly true,..
Predegree is basically a refresher of what you've been taught in your secondary schools (at least for first contact)... but ironically,I think this fact is the reason why some people don't perform up to their expectations. One thing you should know now is- P.D takes students from different academic "levels", and brings them all to level zero. If you were the best or the least student in your school in terms of grade, that doesn't count in Moro.
Drop your entrance exam score, drop your SSCE results, and come to Moro like you know nothing.. Everyone is given a fresh start.. it's up to you..
You must be willing to learn.LEARN, LEARN, LEARN...
Moro is not for those that know it very well, but for those that want to know it very well.
As most of you know already, you have 2 tests and 2 exams, but I think most people regard the word "test" as less intense than "exam". Very wrong. Like someone once told me, don't see it as tests and exams. See it as 4 exams in P.D. Every exam matters.. let me explain that last line.. I was a BCP student so I'll speak from that angle..
After the first test, 60% of those who are going medicine would've already taken their positions. After First exam, it rises to 90%.. the best time to run is first contact.
I'm not saying that those who don't perform too well can't get back into the race, they can.. but it's very very rare. It's easier for someone who performed well in first contact to perform badly in the end than for someone who performed not too well in first contact to eventually get up there..
I'll especially urge those Med. aspirants who're fresh secondary school graduates to put in extra effort.. you'll meet people who've stayed home for over 3 years, you might even meet some who have university experience already.. those people will not sit down and watch you displace them from the chosen 15-20 students taken for medicine.. During my set, I heard there were over 1k BCP students... let's assume 800 are going for medicine...that's roughly 2.5% of the Medicine aspirants getting in through P.D...
so if you want to spend your time "enjoying life" , just know that somewhere else in Moro, someone is reading a particular page in his/her biology note that could earn her an extra 1 mark (and trust me, 1 mark is way too much in PD.).

I cannot over emphasize the place of good friends during your stay there... the kind of friends you keep contributes hugely to you success there.

Also, ensure to attend a good fellowship while in school. Have it at the back of your mind that you came to Moro to get your desired place in OAU... but also remember there's a much more desired place after life..

It's only human to be a bit scared after reading this.. but let that fear propel you into action..
Better to be a bit shaky now and get your course of choice in the end... than to be calm now, and shaky at the end of P.D.


On a personal note : ensure to help others out with stuff (like studies) if they need help.. it takes away NOTHING from you..
Goodluck.

This is by far, the most inspirational thing I ever read!

Hey guys....we thank God paid today n was given beiva suite @ cdl campus....wats d hostel like@ expredites

new hostel I think

And that's it all from umm...honestly PD is very easy..like very easy...asin easy is an (my moniker)...if only and only u can give it the only thing it needs----CONCENTRATION!

PD is very jealous,doesn't want u to share the concentration she deemed with the opposite sex,parties..etc.....give her this and she is all yours!..

And please take note of the FIRST CONTACT issue..bcus ur first contact is your PD!I repeat ur first contact is ur PD!...predites tend to find first contact difficult not because it's hard,but because mostimes new predites tend to bask too much in the euphoria of being "FREE"...from parents,guardians..etc...thus making them want to explore and in the process loose what PD demands most-CONCENTRATION!


Also, it is near to impossible for you to have 75 in first contact and 59 in second contact even 69!....in other words,predites tend to stay within the range of their first contact score in their final results or as it is mostimes higher!...e g from 75-80...


Motivate yourself,don't let anybody intimidate you,KNOW WHAT WORKS FOR YOU...oh no!don't show yourself off on campus,let the BOARD(where results are pasted) do that for you!......and most importantly ask God for mercy..it's the only thing u need there...when mercy speaks for you,u need not worry bout who reads more than you...let me finish with the words I started with ..PD is very easy!I repeat very easy!...moro is a cool place,good people everywhere...have fun and don't loose CONCENTRATION!...wish u all goodluck.....lobatan!

Its actually trekkable if u pass shortcuts, but wen u first start trekking it may seem far but wen u're used to it, it wud look very close, its not really lively compared to Moro, but u predites can make it bubble, but it is a perfect place for learning cos there is less distraction
