I want to be a doctor because my daddy or my brother is a doctor, therefore i must study medicine, I want to be a Lawyer because my sister or mum is a lawyer, therefore i must study Law.

Now let us go into the post outline for this topic, i hope you are reading attentively because this is where you will know how to choose a career/course.

THINGS YOU SHOULD NOT CONSIDER WHEN CHOOSING A COURSE/CAREER


The Career/Course is Lucrative: Choosing a career/course because it is lucrative is a bad start for you. Please don't get me wrong, i didn't say it is wrong to choose a lucrative career/course but all I'm saying is that choosing a course "just" because it is very lucrative in which you don't have passion for, is wrong. For instance, a student best subject is physics and in addition to that, the student is allergic to seeing blood, it shows that medicine and surgery is not his/her career. Be wise!!!

The Career is Popular: Alot of students nowadays prefer to choose popular courses like medicine and surgery or law simply because it is a popular course. The truth is that there are alot of doctors regretting why they opted in for medicine and surgery, and this only happen when you choose a career/course for the wrong reasons other than having passion for the career/course. Courses like biochemistry, microbiology etc are very good courses to choose, why waste your time pursuing medicine and surgery that is always highly competitive. Choose a career/course because you have passion and knowledge about it and not because it is popular.

Family influence : I have seen families dictates for their children the kind of course they want them to study. Most times, they will want their children to study the course they studied in school or popular courses like medicine and surgery or law or banking and finance. This kind of situation can be so frustrating because i have once experience it , but how did i solve the problem? I had to sit my parents down and tell them that the course they want me to study is my weakness, that i will fail woefully in that course. Pour your mind out to them, make them see reasons why you can't study the course. Take a decision today that will make you happy tomorrow because your family won't be there for you forever.

THINGS YOU SHOULD CONSIDER WHEN CHOOSING A COURSE/CAREER


Know your strength and weakness: [/b]Most students have their strengths and weaknesses one way or the other. It is rare for a student to be good in all areas. For instance, you might be good in mathematics (strength) and be finding biology very difficult (weakness). All this are important factors when deciding your course/career.


[b]Your best subject: This also play a vital role when choosing your course/career. For instance, if your best subjects are physics and mathematics, then you should focus on courses based on those two subjects like engineering course. Knowing your best subject will restrict you from choosing courses that are not relevant, for instance, a student that love mathematics and physics but detest biology and chemistry should know that he/she should remove courses like medicine and surgery from the option when choosing a course/career.

Your goals: I expect every average student to have a goal, i mean a life plan. You should find time to ask yourself what you really want to be in future, you can also seek advice from your parents or professional in different field , by doing this, you will garner more knowledge about the course/career you really want to study.


Your passion: The whole list will be incomplete with this, passion. Choosing a course/career must be based on your passion. Ask yourself this questions; do i really want this course? Do i have any skills related to this course? Give an answer to these questions and you will be good to go. Everything is all about passion because you will easily get frustrated if you choose a course/career you don't have passion for. Check yourself!!!


Let me engage you in a quick exercise by asking you some questions and i will be glad you give your answers in the comment box below.


-What is your best subject?
-What course do you wish to study?
-Why did you prefer that course?
-Does the course correlate with your best subject?
-Apart from that course, what other course do you prefer?

Very educative, parents are also enjoyed to stop mounting pressure on their children to study a particular course. Allow your children to study any course of their choice, many dreams are dead because the dreamers opted for wrong courses.

Great read! Law and medicine are the most overrated course in Nigeria.

Simple pick a course that you will derive joy from when practicing

Advice for the teenagers, getting a job in Nigeria isn't easy, so don't let anyone deceive you with some bullshit talk like "" it doesn't matter what you study, as long as you are a graduate"". i am going to give it to you straight, study any of these courses to improve your chances of getting a job:

1). All engineering apart from Civil and Agric Engn.

2). Bus Admin and Economics

3). Medicine, nursing and pharmacy. Don't study law.

4). Computer science.

But finally, God above everything, if God says you will be successful in life, nothing can stop you, no matter the course you study. What I wrote up there is just my logical opinion. No offense to anyone.

Funny nigga, you get 100% sure game na you never sell all your property and your family property take bet match, you get this kind sure game na you never be millionaire by now abi?
419, I wonder if people still fall for this.

I was forced to by my Parents to study Economics, as against my prefaered Polical Science cause of my Phoebia for Mathematics....
Thank God they did, cause I not only Studied Economic, bt also Graduated with a good grade, and also secured a job after my service

Why does this post keep referring to medicine.
.. my advice:

1. AVOID LAW AT ALL COSTS!

2. AVOID ANY USELESS COURSE THAT DOESN'T LEAD TO A CLEAR CAREER.

I'll urge young jamb aspirants to completely ditch jamb for tech. Our universities have failed. The incessant strikes is not going away anytime soon. If you spend four yrs for instance learning various programming languages, coding, anything tech, in 4/5 yrs you'll be something else! Tech is the future.

If you are going in for pharmacy, equip yourself for NGO, private companies, or personal business (community practice, importation etc) to avoid frustration in hospitals n other public institutions.

But when is the jamb form going to be out on sales

Frustration in hospital and other public institutions how How many pharmacists working in public institutions do you know Like those of them in NAFDAC, NIPRD, SON, etc I know many working there and they are very comfortable. So, give your reason for the above post so I can educate you further.

And what is wrong with civil engineering? They have more opportunities than almost any other engineering field!
