As long as he believes in himself no time is late.

It is very very very late if only he thinks and believes it is late, otherwise it is not.

That's one sweet thing about a doctor.....

Its not about the age but about your intelligence and how u applied yourself during your house job and NYSC, then some hospitals would mention post-NYSC experience shaa.....

Dr na me oh, Dunsin pls message me on whatsapp here. 08037737245

Don't even bother going to school at all.. Go and learn a trade or something..... Na only God sabi wetin u dey do since all dis year abi u no get parents wey dey expect something.... Your head no gree school..

will advice u from own experience. he believes he's overly matured for it now cus he felt he would be feeling too old by the time he clocked 33. take this from me now, when he clocked 33 and didn't follow his passion(medicine) he would definitely regret not doing so. there's no time too late to pursuing one's passion in life so long it gives the fulfillment you desire in life

There is an advantage of maturity to studying medicine at that age. It was one of the reasons NUC advocated for medical students to spend 11 years in school i.e 4years basic science course and 7years med school.

Though i do not entirely support the suggestion but there was some sense behind it. One Prof. Chiedu Mafiana of the NUC is quoted as saying

"Increasing the study time is essential to ensure medical students are well prepared for the psychological demands of the game, to enable the students mature psychologically for the profession".

So my friend it is not too late to study medicine at 25.

prolonging the number of years of training has no advantage and it is absolutely unnecessary.in fact,it will only produce jaded and more angry doctors. I've never met any middle age person doing too well in medical school infact most of them struggle just to pass just like their young colleague.IMO, they are usually too distracted.

Stop this lies jhoor. At 25,its already very late to study medicine.

..

It's not late. It's all about passion and fulfilment

Nope it isn't. I had classmates that were into their late thirties then when I was in school. Na passion matter

my dad's friend retired as a school principal, went back to uni to study medicine. today he is a practising doctor....



if ur friend is a gal, she has to put marriage in to consideration. anyways, if she finish and practise, am sure suitors go plenty....

since he is a man, no shaking

It is not too late. One of my friends went back to study medicine and surgery at the age of 28 after a BSc. in Microbiology.

It's never too late u follow ur dreams.

Its ur life, live it to the fullest.

Absolutely no. No age is too much to pursue your goals in life. Life is not a competition.

Not late at all. Remain focused and motivated. Good thing about medicine is how your intellectual prowess and sublime practical skills stand you out. Age is given no consideration even @70.

In Nigeria, its veryyyy late!!

ASUU just went to strike!


he's gonna graduate at the age of 40
