God bless u Gbsks for saying the truth.
Don't mind the guy wey dey talk as if he dey oau health sciences.
The way the guy dey talk I am not sure he is a medical student.
Once again thank you so much.
I was formerly a med rehab student of the school now.
I am in UI medicine.
See everybody I am not here to castigate or criticize anybody but I am here to help people to get to their dream course and not to prevent their dream from been shattered. So that tomorrow nobody will tell u that God said medicine is not for you.
It is their type that lobbied for medicine and hence prevent the more worthy students from getting to medicine.
GOD bless u once again gbsks
Lol


I rest my case.
God will see you through. Adieu

I repeat I am not here to criticize or ridicule anybody, group, or university neither am I here to promote any University.
I have seen the lackadaisical attitude shown by our medical personnel in this our country Nigeria.
Doctors and nurses who don't have passion for the course.
Doctors who can't give the correct diagnosis. Doctors who don't know the difference between malaria ailment and other typhoid.
Then I found out that one of the root problems is our admission processes.
Take it or leave it.
We play politics with medicine something that deals with life.
We discard merit for other things.
We prefer mediocrity to merit.
OUR WATCHWORD IS AVERAGE

yeah sure bro, i just can't wait to finish and apply for d.e somewhere else gan sef. I've had enough of them.
Re: The medical students and aspirants thread by Vcojuro: 5:45pm On Oct 21, 2015
That is why one of the easiest way of securing medicine in Nigeria is the ui college of Medicine.
There is no catchment, no tribalism, nepotism.
This year cuttoff was 74 and 110 candidates were picked.
20 more candidates will be called up in their second list.
Those candidates that hat heard 72 and 73.
They are the most transparent when it comes to their admission when it comes to admission.
I don't think if there are other Universities that does that.
Don't waste your time and be chasing what u can easily pick up.
In ui medicine u will see people of different nationality tribes and different states.
The catchment of ui is the 36 federating unit.
I know of a guy that wasted 4 years chasing oau medicine each time the authority will tell he is not up to the ability. That he should go for industrial chemistry or microbiology. And in each year more than 10 people he know gain admission into Oau medicine. And those people don't normally have up to his score.
He was so discouraged that he wanted to stop education entirely until someone advised him to go for ui medicine and he was finally admitted.
You can see assuming he listen to their advice he would not have gotten to his dream course.
I also know of a guy that went through 3 different Universities post utme until someone advice to for ui.
I am not here to discourage anybody but to tell you to save yourself unnecessary stress and years.
People have spent 3 to 6 unnecessary years seeking for medicine not because they are not brilliant but but they are not smart.
I pray nobody will come tomorrow and tell u medicine is not your destiny when u believe it is.
And I pray that God who sees us all Will reward our patience, hardwork and perseverance.
May he not our labour go in vain.
May he replace mediocrity and average with merit.
Thank u all.

You ask yourself didn't u read the right material for post UTME.
There was this guy in your set I mean microbiology in oau
His name is olaniyi abiodun Jeremiah . Check him out I know u will know him. Current part 2 microbiologyHe had the highest cgpa in in microbiology if not the highest in the whole of biological sciences.
He had a cgpa of either 4.93 or 4.92.
He went for change of course to medicine he was not given.
He was frustrated he opted in for jamb.
Last year cuttoff for mbbs was 275.5 and he had 273,
Still he saw a lot of people that had 250 266 and even 3 people that had 235 and they were admitted to mbbs. He had to lobby for med rehab which is physiotherapy before he was given.
He is currently in part one med rehab.

U don't Need to be one kind genius.
U don't need to know to know one politician
U don't need to know one professor.
Just be hard working and diligent then u are sure of been rewarded.

even the dullest students in our set got medicine in O.O.U,no wonder their school fee is around 300K,and their teaching hospital does not have good repute(look up google b4 you say i'm beefing).

Congrats tho,since you're studying your dream course,i wish you all the best,

BTW,what's your jamb score
Dude that's just wrong, it's not the school the the individual mindset, plus he's lucky there are lots of people lookin for one to enter, my guy, calm down.

guy why do you speak like this and u are saying u are a medical student.
It seems u are not a medical student of which u claim to be.
it is known that in medical school it is not about how brilliant or intelligent u are but all about smartness.
Or do u think that Ben Carson was the best in his set.
Infact today medical consultants were not the best in their set.
Can u explain to me why three guys that exceeded the cuttoff in oau mbbs. The three guys had resit.
U stay there and continue to say he paid 300K in oou
U will see who has the last say.
There are doctors that finished from state universities and they are doing their residency in oau and ui.
Forget all the shit about mbbs.
Mbbs is mbbs once u are accredited by mdcn.
Forget all those fine buildings and structures believe me
Mdcn does not care.
I represent ui mbbs

The most transparent varsity when it comes to admission to mbbs is ui.
they admit 120 student on merit for their mbbs.
No catchment, no so called indigeneship, no locality, no tribalism, the name of everybody is pasted on the school websites, for the whole world to see if u see anyboy that had below the cuttoff, go Lodge a complain.
I am not from any state in the Southwest, neither am I from the north.
University of Ibadan didn't pay me a dime but I will continue to say the truth.
There are lots of igbos and southeast guys in my set.
In fact one third of the guys in my set are guys from southeast and southsouth.

I attest to it that UI is the most transparent in terms of admission.
First about 100 students are admitted via merit truly.
But come to think of it,talking about Postutme questions or exam,as per MBBS,Na shit.
The questions are too simple,open for person that is not as good to edge you to your utmost be wilderness,chai.
The questions set by UI are damn cheap for my liking!
If UI is to allow the sale of her past questions,people,will shake head to believe her personality does set such mediocre questions!
The real post utme or exam ought to be tough enough to decipher the competent from the average.
I would rather one not prepare hard 4 ui postutme,cos if you did do,u will be disappointed.Worst of all is her Typo error in questions and some cases options.
I dare say her questions are kind of mediocre one.
Re: The medical students and aspirants thread by JSMMUYIWA(m): 9:17am On Oct 22, 2015
If am to opine;
OAU has the worst admission entrance criteria;
Merit cutoff is pissingly high,had it been it were inclusive of enough,candidates it would have been better,but it is appalling low!
But she has the best set of questions you will expect from a University post utme.
Well arranged,apparently a few error,if there is,highly technical, tricky,and interesting(simple) questions.
It clearcutly decipher the best candidates from good and the latter from average.
If you write her exam u can always dare say she is kinda world class 4 the best in exam setup.
B4 24 hours your results is out.
All U need is prayer,hardwork and smartness(I call this luck),not just good but extremely good.
U don't read 4 her exam but u study!

Re: The medical students and aspirants thread by Penboy: 9:18am On Oct 22, 2015
For sometime now, i have been following the argument on this thread by some distinguished gentlemen. Each one was making valuable points for his notion, though not without an iota of falsehood in their quoted statistics.
Let me clarify some things here.

1) Having a high jamb score means having a high post jamb score too.
While the above sounds reasonable, it is completely false. Many factors may make an individual fall out in one of the exams; for which psychological and level of preparedness are included.
Need i remind you that there is a huge time interval between both exams and they are not even conducted by an individual body. So the methods and materials used in preparing for jamb may fail you for postume.

2) UI is better than OAU in admission processess or vice versa
The "vice" is mostly used by people who feel cheated by jamb and think they need an equal ground to compete for admission.
The "versa" is favoured by those with an outstanding high score in jamb and feel they already have an edge over their low-scored counterpart.
While i won't fault these schools of thought, what i'll condem is you proving effortlessly than one is better than the other.
I have friends who tried hard at UI MBBS and didnt get in but got into OAU Mb.ChB. at first shot; others forsook OAU for UI.
It's a two way thing. Be smart. Choose institutions that favour your jamb scores.
[Even someone that couldnt get into either of the schools would tell you that uniBOKOHARAM is the best because their cutoff for medicine is 20%]

3) UI admission process is not corrupt- Oau's is.
This to me is the 10th wonder lie of the ancient world.
For crying out loud, this is Nigeria. Moreso, this is medicine. Quote me anyway, "no school is a saint in this aspect".
What i know in Oau is; if you meet the merit mark, which is pasted for the world to see, your name would be on the admission list.
Ask yourself, why is it that despite having a poor general performance, the cut off for medicine is still kept high, let say 80%?
This is a technique i call "room creation". Schools take the merited name for admission which are not many and 'runs' others- if you know what i mean.

I hope you all would see my points.
