muhds1: ...

na to dey paste unfounded claims from one site that's not Airtel website.

Have you yourself used the 3K BIS and it was unlimited?

Mind you, I have tried it severally and always get cut off after exhausting data.

muhds1: send BISMONTH to 444 , its 3k and unlimited but I don't know whether it works on android

my friend, stop misinforming the public jare.

AIRTEL 3K BIS is NOT Unlimited.

Nobody should listen to him else you waste your money.

There is no Airtel BIS plan that is Unlimited. Be it 1500, 1200 or 3000.

Only MTN and Etisalat have unlimited BIS,

Still not interested

CrazyMan: My argument isn't who the groom is...I already know the groom is the guy on her a55.

I'm just bothered that she felt so comfortable leaning on another guy...if she wanted to pose for a pic, she/they should have done it in a more decent manner...this pic looks absurd.

Relax. If the guy in front is her brother, cousin or close relation? What's wrong with leaning on him?

People just love to see and assume the negative aspect of things.

This is why psychiatrists have jobs

Lagusta: Nxt year february/march... All things being equal!!!

best of luck . Writing about the same time too.

Which one come be "graduate world" again? So because you have done one course in university you think you're better than everyone else? My brother come down from your high horse abeg. It's just a boot and you're not using it for anything.Abi you want chop am?

They all look over 30. Na wa, excess fat no good o.

And what's with the very ugly gowns in the first pic. They look like High priests of Guru Marahajis temple.

Lagusta: Thanx to all of u for your wishes and prayers!!!

May God return what u wish for me in triple manifolds...

Remember, the sky is not the limit, in fact, the end of the universe is just the starting point, but if u work hard, be diligent, and of course... PRAY FEVERENTLY.... All your dreams and desires shall come to pass...

Boss, abeg When are you guys writing finals?

[quote author=Dr.Gboy]Wadup guys..... Long time.
It hasn't been easy here at unilag, lots of 'jacking' and intensive reading. To O.M.E, glowyn2shyn and oda freshers, just be urself ,buy past questns, read deeply and leave the rest for God.....It is well.[/quote]didn't u just resume 100L this week or so? Abeg take am easy with the "jacking" and "intensive reading" o. No kill yourself.

hardmanvicky: pls share the site we can download dis textbooks. As many site as u can remember just share it

4shared.com is a good source. Better, google is your best bet.

Kadata: Hutchinson in pdf is like the biblical camel passing through the eyes of a needle. I'm sha managing the chm in the tab 10.1. Chm readers on android Os is common thing. I used to hear that playbook can download from android market- dunnoo how true. Or a chm to pdf converter might do the job.

Laptop has recently been too heavy to carry.

I really like the idea of that good phone you raised - even Samsung galaxy pocket reads .chm and pdf perfectly- just the screen size ish. I was so surprised it did. But at least it does.

Btw, we are waiting for the part 2 of ur post for us in clinicals.

Thanks for your response. CHM converters aren't really effective at least the ones I've tried. I'll manage the hutch like that, and substitute with one other one I got, quite detailed and in my opinion better than hutch.

PlayBook doesn't download directly android apps, not with the new OS upgrade that's unhackable.

Lagusta: Yes!!! Just finished my M3 posting exam, starting S3 next week, which will be my final clinical posting!!!

God you are too much for seeing me through 6 good years of hardwork, diligence and perseverance!!!

I pray that all medics starting this journey will make it even better than I did!!!

best of luck bro in finals . Wow 6 exact years in unilorin, you guys are damn lucky. Even no go better for ASUU and their numerous strikes sha

Kadata: Same here. Some books have sha proven 'undownloadable'. A stubborn one has been Norman Browse. Had no choice but to buy. Its the only I've bought so far. The rest are carefully on my tab.

your head dey there my guy.

Some of my colleagues don't like reading off a tablet screen though. They prefer the traditional book. Na them savings sha.

Do you have Hutchinson in pdf? Have it in CHM but playbook doesn't support CHM have to use laptop. I need read that stuff before finals.

Will post continuation to clinicals later. . And to our brothers and sisters in foreign schools, fear not questions are basically the same here too just for some minor differences I'll enumerate later.

Ok guys now the continuation of my long rant. Sorry this is coming late.

For your year two you start pre-clinical. .......Anatomy, physiology, biochemistry. Depending on your school anatomy canned broken down to gross anatomy, neuro anatomy, embryology, histology etc. Physiology, CVS physiology, neurophysiology, endocrinology respiratory, etc. Biochemistry also has its own.

What I'll advice any preclinical student is even if you don't know anything please just KNOW your Physiology. In my opinion physiology is the basis of medicine. In simple terms it deals with the normal functioning of the human body. If you know the normal, studying the abnormal in your clinical classes will be a piece of cake. Because pathology, OnG, paeds, internal med and surgery for the,most part deal with abnormal physiology and how to correct them.

Someone asked about the pass/fail system. It just means that there are no grades A, B, C, D, E, F. Once you get 50% and above you are graded as P(pass). 49 and below is Fail. So strive to get at least 50 in all your assessments. Even if you get below 50 for example 45 in PHS 2011, you can buffer using another Physiology course eg PHS 2012 scored 55. Your average will now be 50.

It'll be a good idea to get video lectures on anatomy, PHS and biochemistry. They help alot. You should have some for sale in your school. YouTube is also a very good resource for video lectures.
The Internet is also your friend. There are countless textbooks available for download online. Especially anatomy. It used to be so abstract to me back then, till I was able to come across some very wonderful textbooks which just simplified everything with pictures atlas and explanations.

Remember back then our neuroanatomy lecturer will just come, blab, show us cardboard with very ugly drawings and disappears. I did not even bother. Just crammed what I could went for exam and wrote wetin I fit. Wasn't until when I was researching for a seminar sometime ago I came across atlas of regional anatomy of the brain, functional neuroanatomy, and some other pdf textbooks on neuroanatomy did I finally appreciate that course.

Cant remember when last I bought a textbook in med school. Why would I spend 7K+ on kumar or Davidson when I can get it soft copy for free and carry it around in my pocket.

Never underestimate the power of a good phone, tablet or laptop. Infact everyone should have a laptop at least. It helps. That way you can always carry your library everywhere with you. The books I have in different courses number up to 200 they come in handy for referencing.

Now onto money matters. As a medical student you're eligible to apply for a number of scholarships. Please do apply when they come out. Better for you if you're from the south south. I have classmates who get close to 1 million a year from different scholarships including their state governments and alot of oil companies. I wasn't as aggressive as them in applying back then and I regret it now. These days it's even easier most applications are done online. Back then you had to run from pillar to post, photocopying this, attaching that, stamp this, NIPOST wahala etc. Times have really changed walahi.


There are blogs you can subscribe to that give you updates as soon as scholarship opportunities open up.

Rounding up preclinical, you'll be writing your 2ND MB exam in your 3rd year. That's your first professional exams. All the exams you've been writing from yr2 to yr 3 is just continuous assessment towards this professional exam. They make up 40% of your score while the MB itself is 60% a total of 100%. You just need 50% to pass. However you get the 50 doesn't matter. Just get it.

Hey guys, sorry been busy a lot lately. I still owe you guys some write ups. I've not forgotten will get to it sometime today.

Best of luck to those of you who just resumed this week. A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.

Hey guys. Sorry busy busy lately. Tablet tv doesnt stream love matches for those asking. You can watch ighlights though on BBC.

If you're looking to watch matches, use Google to find sites that stream, then you watch through your PB browser.

cupid4ig: pls someone just told me that the reason why the mm9 wont play is because of my playbook memory which for now is showing me 449.5 the reason been that the mm9 is 841mb pls oga TCD and LEXUS or anyone pls how do i go about this memory ish really need to play that game

you have 49GB free. That 499mb is RAM not storage space. So has no effect on you sideloading 9mm.

If you sideload the 9mm, try restarting your playbook. The icon may appear.

bibigirl07: It has come to my notice that more and more MEn are beginning to neglect their Responsibilities and pushing it to their wives. Every morning, whilst I do my road-walk, I keep seeing this thirty-something year old woman packaging her 4 kids to schl as early as five am in a bid to avoid the traffic, the husband sleeps at home all day, doing nothing. He keeps spinning yarn that he is a contractor bla, bla, bla, yet for the past five years he hasn't done any job. His wife pays the bills, house rent, school fees, car maintenance and purchase, clothings and all. How do u expect such a woman to retain the respect for her man? A man is respected and adored for his ability to be the breadwinner, to be the protector, the head while the wife supports. Woman are wired to nurture, not to manufacture. Your wife becomes the breadwinner and u are surprised when she starts acting like a man? What are ur constructive opinions on this pressing issue...

With this logic, let's flip the coin. Are you saying it is justified if a man loses respect for a woman and treats her like thrash when she can't fulfill her primary function of bearing children? A barren woman deserves no respect, right? Is this your opinion?

I'm yet to see a fat woman who will gladly accept that she is fat or growing bigger. They are always in denial. "I'm big", "big boned" , "fleshy", "curvy", "have a little flesh" "plus size" bla bla bla. Its when they become chronically fat with tummies as big as satellite dish and resign themselves to that fact, they now change to "I'm big bold and beautiful".

OP, we see it all the time. Women have kids and use that excuse to baloon out of proportion. I highly doubt your husband wants you to be exactly how he met you in the university, you're just saying that for effect to get sympathy. He wants you to lose weight and be healthy. For him to complain I'm sure something definitely is amiss. There is no smoke without fire. Or you want him to wait till u get to a BMI of 45 before he starts urging you to lose weight?

Besides that, Its very healthy for you to be fit. Love yourself and do what's right for you so you can live longer and cater for those two kids.

Love this entry. So simple yet attractive. Good job sir

Thanks boss. I see how it is now. Was thinking it was a pouch that doubles as a stand.

^^^wow, really cheap. Could u snap a picture of it being used with a playbook lemme see how it looks and works. Thanks

Chief Niiade, how much is your playbook stand abe? Anybody have pb charger for sale?

That they failed doesn't mean they are poorly trained. Undergraduate Medical education everywhere focuses on diseases and conditions that are prevalent in that given region. Tropical medicine is a slightly different ball game.

A medical school in russia won't bother too much about exhaustively teaching malaria,sickle cell or polio in their curriculum because it doesn't concern them. Meanwhile if you aren't well grounded in these areas in Naija you must fail that exam.

I know of an American specialist who came here and was so excited about seeing a ruptured ectopic pregnancy. He said he has never seen one before, overthere stuffs like this are caught very early through ultrasound before it gets to the rupture stage. A med student in naija has seen more than 8 sef. Would you say the American specialist is poorly trained? In Nigeria its only when the thing has ruptured, massive bleeding and they are almost dying then they will remember oh, hospital exists.

One other thing, the format of examinations in naija might be different from that where they trained. It's going to have to take some getting used to. I believe most of them will pass in their next attempt. Goodluck to them.

Some people don't like themselves o. A drug is still in the phase of "clinical" trials and somebody here is ranting and crying for doctors to start prescribing it. Do you know what a clinical trial is?

You have in effect turned yourself into a guinea pig and you want a doctor who patients trust to safeguard their health to start prescribing unproven and uncertified medications that could potentially harm them.

Quick advice, there is a reason why even in the USA FDA approval for a new drug takes over 10 years. It has to have gone through studies to certify safety, efficacy, effects (long term and short term) and dosing.

If you like keep playing guinea pig with your life. Because you feel great now you think the drug "has no side effect". When your liver starts failing in 5 years time or tumour pops up somewhere na then eye go clear you or you start producing children with two heads.

Google thalidomide and read up on its wide use and circumstances leading to its withdrawal then you'll understand why protocols have been put in place for drug approval.

This guy must have made millions from this o. See people calling 50K, 40K, etc. How many more out there.

I don't blame him sha. It's greed that's makes people fall victim. You want to buy an 8GB RAM laptop for 20K. I dey laugh

newman10: Oga TCD, my query is that in your spare time, you should help us put together sites and links to get HD games and quality apps so that we too can flex on our playbooks like you guys. Thanks in anticipation

these will be quite difficult now. Links are on this thread, most have expired or blocked by RIM, minus.com has disabled access to non-media files. It's going to take sometime for new ones to come up.

Most are on media fire, problem is I can seem to be able to search media fire. Looks like they don't have search option. I think some are on pirate bay, problem is how many have a good connection to download torrents?

If I had a good internet connection, I would have uploaded my entire catalogue to a file sharing site so people can download.
