Hello, I'm a 300l student of medicine and surgery, university of Ibadan. I got admitted thru DE. I'm available for any questions pertaining DE to UI

Hi dearpiriye. A very happy new year to you. Please i just began my service year, with a view to passing out in October. I intend to during the year apply for admission into the MBBS programme at UI. Graduated from Uyo, microbiology second class upper, cgpa 4.05. O Level results B3 in the 5 relevant subjects.. In your opinion, what are the chances of admission like assuming there's transparency in selection

I'll like to frankly address prospectives in the building.
This message is not sent with an intent to dissuade candidates from selecting their choice institutions in the Direct Entry admission process but...
U.I. will not take random students with just any G.P., especially referring to my ND people. Your G.P. would have to be a force to reckon with and then your O'level has to be quite good too. This year, emphasis would be laid on those criteria for ND applicants.
Now, it's good to be hopeful and prayerful but it's even better to be realistic. If you're planning to go ahead with applying for U.I.'s Direct Entry as an Upper Credit ND holder, please apply for HND also. This applies to distinction candidates too, as I know a few of those from my alma mater, FPI, that were not offered admission. Federal Polytechnic Ilaro, as most of us know, is NOT a pushover but still our distinction candidates, of whom I know about 4 of them with G.P. between 3.6 - 3.8, were not picked. So...
The emphasis is on ND wielding candidates;

DO NOT WASTE A YEAR IF YOU'RE NOT ABSOLUTELY CERTAIN ABOUT YOUR ADMISSION. TAKE THE HND FORM AS A BACKUP! PLEASE!

I know some of my ND mates that played the hopeful/prayerful card but ended up being checked out not up! Be realistic, don't put all your eggs in a basket and pray to God to keep it safe when you can put it in 2 different baskets and pray to God to keep both safe!

I wish you all luck with your processing and I hope a good amount of the prospectives in here will be picked. Feel free to ask any question concerning U.I. DE and I'll give you an honest opinion. Bless up!

Okay, thanks... But I have changed my mind and I intend opting for optometry at the University of benin.. Because I'm informed that Uniben only admits ND slt distinction through direct entry to the department of optometry.. Now my question is would lasu accept second choice and is it possible I opt for petrochemical sciences at tasued!!

Capslock01:

Microbiology? Or other SLT inclined courses.

Can we create a whatsapp group for this movement... I will really appreciate it.. If the owner of this thread can start a group, so we can be closer to each other and even after we gain admission to same schools we can be friends in school and help others!! So I will start by dropping my number incase anyone is interested to start the group 09097930095

Forget whatsapp. Its too early. No one wants constant broadcast messages all the time. There's nothing wrong with this thread. When you get admission and want to celebrate, post it here and congratulations will be in order. If you want friends, PM! No offense meant and Yes, You're welcome.

dearpiriye:
how about you apply for both then wait and see how it comes out

That's exactly what I'll do.

@calma 90 plz gv me ur whatsap No...

Wow FUTA also writes .. Mehn.


Okay thanks man do you have any idea on how the exam is being run?

Larry said futa has stopped writing post de exam due to JAMB new policy but FUTMINNA conducted post de exam last year and I think it was quantitative and verbal.

A friend wrote last year and he said the materials he used in preparing was the same thing he saw in the exam hall. He said like they just lift the questions from the material.

MasterRahl:
I believe I am in the right section. I'm 22 and a graduate (B.Sc Physiology). I'll be passing out from NYSC by March 2017. So I visited home for Xmas and my dad came up with two wonderful ideas . He said once I'm done with service, I'll pick a Direct Entry form for Medicine & Surgery and also an M.Sc form for Physiology. He has promised to sponsor whichever comes my way. So my question here is...which do I go for? Which should I take as a priority assuming I'm offered admission in both disciplines.

MSc in Nigeria or where? How strong is your BSc grade? Maybe we can start from there. Who knows if you can get a fully funded master abroad.

Ogori8:

Dearpiriye welcome on board ma'am. Please do you have answer to this question?

Carmal90:


Thanks,i don't write further maths in my O level and I heard unilag admit candidate with distinction only.


Pls did u have clues of what LASU Pay as school fees for fresher's..I mean for 100 level

I don't know sir, but I thought they said Fashola reduced it to 20,000. Sorry, I initially thought unilag accepts upper credit for HND applicants.

LARRYDKING:


Unilag admits candidates who possess only distinction.

Okay bro. I initially thought they accept upper credit for HND applicant, I was wrongly informed.

Olarewajub:

Egbon! You seem to know more but I know someone with weak upper credit that was admitted to faculty of technology UI from polyIbadan and the person no get leg for UI. Any explanation to this? So, nobody knows the criteria UI use in selecting applicants.

But egbon, from your comments here e be like say you sabi person, why not connect people here?

You want to use tasued as first or second choice? Why not settle for uniben? since you met the distinction criteria.
About Lasu, I no know if they will accept but people do pick for second choice.

True, it is too early for that.
Are you an applicant? Which school?

I do. Don't me too, I was just trying to know if you're a guy disguising a female. Hope you no vex?

The following is an assumption;
What if the someone with weak upper credit has leg with someone that has leg inside U.I.? You see?
Said person could also be lucky to have chosen a mildly contested course or been offered one.

The criterion for U.I.'s DE is, to an extent, performance; say about 85-90% of her admission is on merits. There's also the preference for A-levels over ND; with the quota for A-levels being about ⅔. So...
Better safe than sorry.

Yes, I know someone but I can't impose on her. I'm sorry.
However, I'm going to provide help in any other way I can to prospects.

Bless up!

No Uniben is first choice... Second choice is between lasu ND tasued

what dept do you want to apply to?

Hi

please which school can accept ND SLT for direct entry into medical lab science ...am currently in my ND 2 with a cgpa of 3.87 o level's 2A's,1 B3 ,1C5 and a C6...advice plz and plz be sure plz as in the last admission conducted was anyone admitted for the course at the sch u will mention

Thank you mr larry. OAU is a pretty good school. But from Biz admin to Accountancy, could it be possible?

LARRYDKING:



It isn't possible bro. Unilag admits national diploma candidates into only the faculty of engineering and environmental science. My advice is you ensure you get regularised and try to end it with a distinction.

I was with a 300l student of accounting in OAU today and I asked him how many candidates were admitted along with him through DE and he said close to 100. I would enjoin you to go for OAU, they admit ND candidates a lot.

Tnks for ur response, Im talking abt Unilag and Funaab
