BoiGrammz:
the last bullet is just what i wanna hear! Mz maths in waec self was a miracle.. Asin i so much suck in anzthing math. But i sha can change mz ideologz and improve on mz math na.. Abi??

Sure you can. But, you'll need a hell of Hard work. To make things easier, I'ld recommend Engineering Mathematics by KA Stroud. The part I of the Ordinary Text is a preliminary part, it builds your mathematical skills and helps groom you for the stage ahead.
Since you're coming from the Medical line, I think to an extent you'ld be good in Chemistry and Physics...If you're good in both, I'ld advise you opt for CHEMICAL Engineering..

khassy:
you fire thunder

What Data are you now using?

BoiGrammz:
na only khassy get that dubious character.. but shey olodo like me go fit cope for there?? As in average student. Im considering engine, this medical line is overrated :/

so what is the scope of work in chem eng like

Scope of work in Chemical Engineering? Lol...don't get me started. The Essay would just be too long.



There's no place a student can't survive. People just tend to Make alot of fuss about some courses.



Last bullet, PLEASE, don't come to Engineering if you're not good both MATHEMATICALLY AND ANALYTICALLY.

BoiGrammz:
Abeg werin be the jamb subject combo for computer engineering? And which of the engineering is a hot cake here in naija??

temmi001
matcruz

and other eng students

Use of English.
Mathematics.
Physics.
Chemistry.
Hottest? Funny question. You want me to say Chemical Engineering and you'll say, ''is it because it's your course''?

haywhy911:

Haywhy911 and DharmyYinks.


I'll best advise you write about an unsung hero. One you feel has impacted positively in the community. Just be creative with the writing. Be free. Don't sound TOO serious. Deploy several attention catching grammatical expression. You need not reference anyone.
Below is a sample of last year's. He used a polio stricken road side beggar turn entrepreneur as his Nigerian star.
I'm sorry for this guys. I wish there was a better place I'll post this. Thanks for understanding.

I KNOW A NIGERIAN STAR
This is a story of bravery, of grit and finally of triumph. It is a chronicle of
both the bitter and (afterwards) sweet events in a man’s life, a life that
was once upon a time grinded to a screeching halt by an ugly sickness, a
sickness that sandwiched this life in between two wooden crutches,
sauntering aimlessly in search of help. The proverbial ray of hope had long
eclipsed on this life at birth, penury became the norm and inevitably, alms
was the only way out- Indeed, I KNOW A NIGERIAN STAR.
He was born without any deformity but very early, Polio struck and he was
subjected to a life of severe hardship in a lonely village in Oron, Akwa
Ibom state. Fate must have been unkind to him as being physically
challenged came with enormous challenges; He would crawl to school and
back and to everywhere his wobbling knees could take him. Soon, he was
unable to cope with the physical (and financial) demands of schooling and
had to drop out of school. For many years he lived without a single dream
until an old friend of his, who had left Oron earlier for Port Harcourt
returned to inform him of a ‘big’ opportunity in the Oil city. Quickly (or
should I say ‘slowly’) he wobbled his way to Port Harcourt, without a home
and of course without a dime, but he had a plan, a plan to beg for alms on
the highway, especially the traffic prone areas. The Air force junction was
the choice spot owing to its high volume of vehicular traffic. After a fewi
orientation from older colleagues in the trade, business soon began and
that was how Eteyen Onung, the boy from Oron became another addition
into the booming ‘alms industry.’ From dawn till dusk, Eteyen would
crisscross the dangersome Air force junction in search of alms. He would
sing, cry and even pray for his targets just to scrounge a cheap wad or
even a coin off them. Life on the street was tough, so was life at ‘home’-
a ramshackle pavilion used to run a local block making factory where he
used as shelter.
Life may have seemed cruel but Eteyen refused to give up, many times he
was robbed of his meager proceeds by touts, leaving him hungry and in
tears but he just would not give up, but one day, tragedy struck. On a
certain rainy afternoon, perhaps the cruelest of fate’s gifts was dished out
on Eteyen. He was hit and ran over by a vehicle and was abandoned along
the road unconscious and without help until that help came his way by a
lady who picked him up to a hospital and paid off his bills. Immediately
after his recovery however, he returned to his hazardous trade. He couldn’t
be more physically challenged than he already was, he must have thought
to himself, but yet again, help came his way, this time from the ubiquitous
Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) through their social welfare
scheme. The church took him off the street and magnanimously granted
him a cash donation and helped him set up a business. This marked the
end of Eteyen’s hazardous business and ushered in the beginning of new
things for him. He now owned a kiosk where he sold petty commodities.
His kiosk was situated in Rumuomasi, Port Harcourt, close to where I once
lived and that was where I witnessed his meteoric rise to success despite
the battles he had to fight. Though handicapped, Eteyen became an instant
success. Everyone insisted on patronizing him as the feat he achieved was
rare. His story reverberated around the entire community. He also enjoyed
the goodwill of his neighbours as everyone wanted to give a helping hand
in the mornings whenever he needed to convey his stock from his new
home to his kiosk which was a few metres away. His neighbours would
often fall on themselves just to lay their hands on something, anything…a
basin of Garri, cartons of noodles, packs of sweets etc. and then he’d take
that very long walk from his house to the kiosk using his crutches. When
he gets to the kiosk, I still picture him leaning on the wall to say his
prayers, then he’d take a sit and would browse the previous days’ sports
papers to see how Chelsea, his favourite team are faring in the English
Premier League.
Life has since been different for Eteyen. He fought his way to where he is.
Now he lives in a relatively comfortable place, a room constructed expertly
with wooden material, his wooden crutches have been replaced with a more
modern type but above all, he has become an inspiration in his
community. He is empowering his neighbours by helping them sell petty
commodities like minerals, recharge cards, Kerosene etc. In his shop,
something that is generating income for these neighbours. Now he even
has his own personal campaign against street begging. “That thing is
risky, my brother” he once told me “and so far, I have been able to
convince 3 of my friends out of it, with the grace of God, I believe I will do
more” he continued with a smile that revealed just how fulfilled he is.
“And how about a wife, have you found any girl?” I once asked him. “Yes
my brother, I have but I don’t know how to tell her that I love her. I only
want to make more money, the kind of money that she won’t be able toi
resist” Such is the kind of transformation that has taken place in his life.
His dream, as he once told me is to put a stop to street begging for good.
Indeed, I know a NIgerian star and if we come together, we can let this star
shine even brighter!
