MrBigiman:
So only first aid with question bank is sufficient?
First aid is a key text and you need to practice lots of questions prior to taking the exam.
FamilyRe: "My Husband's Pride Wants To Ruin Our Home" The True Story by practicalclass: 12:32am On Jul 21, 2018
In the first instance, why are they having issues thats generating into one party asking the other to leave the house.
That said, marital relationship requires trust to nourish the relationship. I thought thats the whole point of owning property in both parties name, and contributions to the property coming from both sides...that you trust your partner enough to own something together.
TravelRe: Dashcam Footage Of Otedola Bridge Tanker Fire/Explosion by practicalclass: 9:30pm On Jun 29, 2018
I think this video needs to get to the hands of FRSC officials to see how these petrol tankers are operated without functioning brakes including emergency brakes. You see those boys intermittently putting shocks (whether big rocks or studdy wooden blocks) to use as brakes... That is totally unacceptable. This is putting lifes at risk, operating such malfunctioning heavy vehicles. They need to be regularly inspected by honest mechanical engineers. May God help Nigeria.

Is it VAR that decides the judgement. VAR only shows an up-close Replay for the referee who then decides the judgement.

EducationRe: UNIBADAN Sent Medical Students Out Of Their Hostels For Protesting (videos) by practicalclass: 4:08pm On Apr 10, 2018
If truly govt needs money to fund education, then they should boost generation of income/revenues from other sectors. Also, they should curb political corruption. All these politicians, legislators, cabinet members earning huge salary are forms of political corruption.
EducationRe: UNIBADAN Sent Medical Students Out Of Their Hostels For Protesting (videos) by practicalclass: 6:25pm On Apr 08, 2018
Smh for Nigerian govt/leaders oppressing minds willing to learn and achieve a future.
A leaping increment from 47k to 173k, haba. Some of those students are being sent to school by irregular pension payments from elderly parents. While some of those students even sponsor themselves.
If only they would increase worker's salary or minimum wage in this manner cry

Hello practical class, thanks for your info, I am currently in medical school, almost done with preclinicals and planning to write usmle before I graduate. I need a first hand direct info and communication with someone that has written the exam. Maybe a whatsap number for constant mentoring.
Thanks

Good day pls answer urgently, i went to the USLME site and i saw that the step 1 exam is $610, so my question is pls can you give us a breakdown of how you came to the price of $910, pls what visa is needed for immigrating doctors, and if i need to do any english test like TOEFL before the USLME.
You must have checked the fees schedule for US trained medical students.
The site for IMG (International Medical Graduate) is different. Go to ECFMG site (ECFMG.org) and then navigate to usmle exams from their. You need to register first with ECFMG ($75 as at last check) and they will verify you before you can register for any exams.
You dont need TOFEL if you were trained in English and your school verifies your credentials in English. You might need TOFEL if you plan on doing Masters program (depending on school and program. Some schools require GRE)
All the best.

HealthRe: Woman Gives Birth To 'Strange' Baby In Aba, Abia State (Graphic Photos) by practicalclass: 1:36am On Mar 10, 2018
What a pity. Its called Hydrops fetalis. Its due to blood group incompatibilty between mother and fetus (baby while in the womb). Mother's antibodies attack the fetus. Their is generalised swelling (edema) and destruction of body organs.

CareerRe: Medical Doctors' Forum: Let Us Know You! by practicalclass: 8:29am On Mar 09, 2018
Hello everyone. This post is to provide info for some1 out there. (N.B: it may contain lots of shorthand. Pardon me)

In re: to writing USMLE, its doable and achievable but you must be prepared. Things to plan 4:

- Deciding when to write (it's best to write STEP 1 while still in Med School say after doing Path& Pharm). Though dis depends on availability of funds

- To start with, you need to register for ECFMG certification with $75, Step 1 is $910+ Surcharge fee if testing outside USA. These fees usually increases like every 2 years.

- Strategize ur studies. D curriculum is SLIGHTLY different 4rm Africa's Med Edu. (You know they see some non-tropical diseases).

- First Aid text is a must have as well as Qbanks. As you study, revise with Qbanks. D NBME Qbank is a strategic tool (U can practice the current ones online for a certain amount...either 1month subs, 3 month, etc.

-You can take Step 1 or 2 non-sequentially but note that Step 1 is bulky (days why you need to plan ur time).

- Build ur confidence with mastering of >80% of the exam content. Its possible as long as u lay ur hands on the right materials.

- If you have the money, you can get the Kaplan videos (Kaplan just takes it time to explain in details the exam materials e.g explaining in details how pressure changes in heart using Frank-Sterling or blood flow following Fick's principle. So the Kaplan videos are lengthy.)

- Their is a visa type specific for Immigrant Drs as long as you get ECFMG certified after passing Step 1&2. I think their is a special VISA to come write Step 2 CS too.

- Registering for the exams is pretty straight forward especially if ur med school is recognised by ECFMG. Most accredited Federal govt schools are and maybe one or two private schools. Its available on the ECFMG website. If the school is not yet recognised by ECFMG but accredited, you can still register #dont knw d steps though

All the best.

CareerRe: How Do I Tackle This At My Work Place? by practicalclass: 10:33pm On Mar 04, 2018
Innobee99:
Pls i need a candid advise on how to deal with this situation at my work place.
I got this job August Last year after waiting for years after my NYSC. There is something going on here which is strictly against my believe and practice.
Some senior staff will come with receipts for me to sign. Receipts on goods and services that has not even taken place so that they can forward it to the headquarter for approval. How do i tell them its against my believe cuz i always feel that guilt after signing .
I need advise on how to go about it without offending anyone and without affecting my job.
How about saying "I'm sorry sir/ma or uncle/aunty, i wont be able to sign that. Its against the ethics of my joy as the company employed with the hope that they trust me to do my job well". Tell them with a smile, yet be firm.

hagiosfemi:
You mean I can write step 1 immediately after path pharm Mb? Sir, what about the financial cost and prep?
As of today, Step 1 now cost $910 as well as step 2ck. This is minus the initial ecfmg registration (last i know if, it was $65) and whatever money you pay to your school to verify you.
Books for prep vary as well as qbanks

My L7 works fine. Check your roaming settings. Then search again a couple of times. Make sure you are in an area with good At&t and tmobile network ( though this should not matter, as other networks should show after auto search but would say forbidden or unable to connect if not allowed to roam with nigerian networks
