Masters Or A Second Degree In Medicine by infinitypro(op): 10:44am On Jul 26, 2015
Will you advice someone that is 27 who already have a degree in the sciences to put in for medicine rather than going for a masters?

Considering the intended medical study will still be in naija and can take some four to five years.

...I find this insane...

For job security let the person go for medicine as second degree

I will advice the person to take the bold step of going for medicine, irrespective of the long years ahead. This is Nigeria, almost everyone has masters degree now and the competition gets tougher everyday. The end justifies the means. Imagine the years u will spend in the masters plus the doctorate degree in a Nigerian university, and compare it with d yrs for medicine then u can count ur teeth with ur tongue cool
