Here's a question for you:

You're required to conduct installation for a cogent/coarse reason, with the use of coded terms, describe how you're going to execute your task?

A clear case of 'Dyslogia' and 'Dyslexia'!

I simply misunderstood the OP's quote as courses most vied for, and said the yearly number of MBBS applicants equates the population of Lesotho. Where's hatred in that quote?

Besides, why would I hate what I am?
Thought you said philosophy on UI.....

Modify dis quote and begin with 1) MBBS. 2) MBBS. 3) MBBS,......

The total number of candidates applying for medicine and surgery every year in nigeria universities is almost the number of people living in Lesotho
Stop the hatred, you've never got someone in grave need of MBBS grads right? If you don't believe, all you need do is to visit "wards" at hospitals.... You need to see how people keep hoping on how doctors could save their lives... When you get their, you'll find out that the reach also cries....

So stop showing/expressing your dislike/hatred for doctors.

Here are the few overrated courses in nigeria.


(1). Accounting
this course is overrated,i wonder why someone would spend years studying this course when my sister had B.sc in Biochemistry,went for a 7months training and she is now working in a bank.



(2). Microbiology
Don't need to say much about this,the course is quite tough though,but after spending 4 years studying it,most of them end up teaching.
mark my words not all microbiologist but most.


(3). Political science
I Don't need to say much about this course,because it's already speaking for itself.


(4).Business administration.
Only God knows how the peeps that studied this course gets employed.


(5).Pharmacy
yea,i know you might be surprised seeing this but it's true.
Most pharmacist end up opening a shop to sell drugs,but the few that are employed are paid in 6 zeros.


You are free to add yours
Your sister should have taken a 7-month programme and start working as an "auditor".

Mark you, your sister will still have something to tell you after 5-10yrs of doing the job. When she does, don't forget to drop em here for us.

Bros., once you graduate and get a job that is related to your course of study, trust me you will see these things everyday in your daily practice to the extent that they naturally become part and parcel of you. For example, any radiologist can tell by a mere glance that a body part (right or left side) was accurately marked on an image, even when the patient has situs inversus (a condition where one's heart is in the right side of the chest and not the left side) in the case of a chest x-ray.
Oh, I thought it was only in the field of social sciences that one could need those theories..... Now a medical scientist is corroborating my assertion.

Gleefreak125:
Now this is just the practical of the whole story. If one fails to answer all these questions correctly even though you've been taught just last year. Lets say for instance you were able to list out all the carpal bones as well as bones of the skull with the cranial & facial bones properly differentiated in an examination of this nature as at that year but all you can remember as at this year is just 5 wrist bones and a few bones of the skull, does that mean one crammed in the first instance? Sorry I just need some clarity.
Though I don't specialize in this field, I still feel that I can say something.

Understanding is knowing that there are (five) bones in a particular area and that they have certain functions... Memorizing is having to remember the name of those bones (it could be difficult to recall but the function is easier to know/understand).

If you examine, the above analysis critically, you'll understand that memorizing involves association. Ie having to link the functions with the name.

Apparently, what I've stated above involves the two methods.... How about someone that remembers the name but doesn't know where they are? Or what they do? Or what will happen if one of the bones is removed (similar to what they do)? Serious level of cramminghuh

It depend on the course. For courses relating or revolving around Medicine, you have to read and pass effectively. Art and Social science course like accounting, Bus Admin. These type of course you have to know how to cram wella cause it involve writing of so many love letters and using of format one have to follow serially. And after school you won't see 70% of all them in working environment
So if a company wants to purchase a motor van for its service, the company won't need costing?

If a company wants to embark on new projects, such company won't need project appraisal?

If a company wants to purchase its product from a supplier, the company won't need the principle of Purchasing and Supply? In fact, many companies in Nigeria now have "resource centre" or should I call it a library? You need to see how challenging work is for folks who don't have stuffs in their head--they'll keep asking questions here and there...

If a company states it clearly that whoever comes late to work should return home as part of punishment for coming late to work; assuming the company has been enforcing it; three of its workers now come late which implies that they all need to return home but one of them needs to attend meetings with foreign investors at a later time in the day, what will the company dohuh What does the principle of business policy states? Besides, is the policy applicable in this case?

Studying is about critical thinking, it's full of imagination. It requires thinking about the relevance of what one is studying..... Remember that all these companies still go back to our professors for consultancy services.... What we study is relevant to our discipline...

Here's another difference between those who are well trained as personnel officers:

HR: We are asking for BSC certificate, you're coming here with your SSCE certificate, I don't think you're okay. Please get out....

HR(that remembers the concept of Human Relation): We are currently looking BSC holders, however we will keep your documents in our files and as soon as we have vacancy for your post, we'll contact you. Thank you for your interest in our organization.

Now you can see the difference.....




No wonder business opens today and closes tomorrow in Nigeria... A reflection of whathuh cheesy

those that cram without understanding is like someone sitting on a keg of gun powder. a little applied question will throw them off balance, all they crammed will vamus and become useless. cheesy. its unwise to cram without understanding. such people that cram without understanding are good at answering direct questions
Oh, I love this post! You're probably from one of those institutions where applied questions are being asked....

Trust me, 95% of the students may find it difficult to understand/interpret what they're asked to do (and the lecturer would come to class and laugh....).

CoCoLav:
I don't even know how to cram anymore. Used to cram my entire notebook in Secondary school but in university I was suddenly unable to cram even till now.

But when I cram I remember oo. I still remember some things I did in Secondary school and even how the pages where I wrote them look like. I also remember what term I was taught some topics.

For those that cram and don't remember, well...you just won't be able to defend your result. How will you feel if your doctor keeps checking his textbook when asking you for symptoms.
That is why we need to study with imagination of how what we're studying is applicable in the real world.

When I see price tag of N93.50 at supermarket, I call it odd pricing... When I hear "this message is from poultry farmers association of ...." I call it mass advertisement.... When I see "drop your complaint in this box" I call it a source of gathering data for marketing research..... When "a company gives scholarship award to undergraduates/postgraduate students" I call it social responsibilty.... When "I see girls dancing around with customized T-shirts and giving free products etc" I call it sales promotion..... When I see different products from Chi- I call them product lines" Honestly, the list is endless.... It's about imagination.... What's its correlation with real life activities?


I still maintain that what we learn in school is very relevant to our day-to-day activities---provided one knows their applications.


Though it's a combination of understanding and memorizing (most especially formulae), it pays to understand. Understanding is a problem-solving method, it enables one to remember even years after one must have taken the exam.

I agree wit u on almost al ur points(doe i dnt av much idea abt dem).....but d point dat i disagree wif u on is d1 u sed dat "ppl dat scored less dan 80% are on dat merit list" i disagree wit dat. MERIT list is only 4doz dat met/scored above d cut-off mark ONLY. If dere wud b any consideratn it wud b on d supplementry list. Evn if we go back to 2008-2011 admissions MERIT is alwyz STRICTLY for doz dat met or scored above d cut of marks set.....doe me too am stil wondrin how ppl 100 candidates scored above 80%(who must av written Phy,Chem,Bio,Eng). Its amazin. Doz peeps must b real ....#GURUS
You may know UI but when it comes to MBBS & LAW don't meddle into em.










Besides, UI should allow us to see candidates scores so that we can know for sure that all the candidates on merit truly deserve em.

Sir, the returning students are in the best position to answer your question. I'm sure yungmillio will have one or two things to say.


Meanwhile, I think the movement lies on whatever the school/COMSIT sees fit. You can't decide to change your course at this moment.

Iamshakur: Finally paid my acceptance fee. I still can't believe I'll be a Unilorite!!! Please don't laugh at me but I've written 6 jambs, failed 2 (186 & 189) Passed 4 and I choose OAU 3 times out of 4, passed post jamb once (227) and I didn't get in to study Geology. I was so pisssed that I decided not to write OAU post Utme the following year though I choose them and Federal Polytechnic Ede, I was admitted to study Building Technology in Fedepe and thank God I graduated with distinction. My OAU obsession was so morbid that I applied there with my OND distinction and still they didn't offer me JACKSHIT, so, I promised myself never to choose them again. This year I picked a Jamb form and I choose BBF, the school that I used to hate as a kid because people always talk about how hard it is to get in here, well here we are today I got into the best University in Nigeria with just one attempt I guess I was destined to study here and it's shame because OAU will regret not given this talent a chance.
Failure only makes the tenacious and dogged ones stronger......

I understand your feelings, I respect your undaunted efforts, my prayer is that God will continue to favour us.

Congratulations on your admission into UNILORIN!
