O.M.E:
hey Tolu, lol ! Physics practs is another story o, aw has d break been ?

fine jare. Hw ar u?

lomaxx: I've been reading some posts about the fear of physics, mathematics etc amongst MBBS aspirants and MBBS students in situ. There's nothing to be afraid of. Una own better sef.
I was an Arts student in FGC, Ikom. Finished as an Arts student; wrote O'levels in Arts only. Then left secondary school and decided to study Medicine.
I had never done physics before. Never did chemistry. The only science subject I did was biology. But I still wanted Medicine.
Between May/June 2007 and Nov/Dec 2008, I read physics and chemistry on my own, attended a few lessons, sat for WASSCE Nov/Dec that year in the science and arts subjects, smashed them, went on to JAMB & post-UTME smashed them too.
It was in the university during my pre-medical year that the paranoia of physics and chemistry chased me considering where I came from. It was even worse. University physics & chemistry was a lil tougher. But I had all As in all- first and second semester.
And this is where the relevance of this post comes in. You had done the science subjects (physics, maths, etc) in your secondary school. So you have a strong foundation. Or at least, you have a foundation. You have an advantage. Fear not; for the physics you see today, you shall see them no more

*mouth sealed* physics here i come!!!!! :@

malignant melanoma

Reasons:
Age of patient is 70years plus sun damaged skin ..indicating prolonged exposure to sun.

Skin discolouration always refers to hyperpigmentation. I learnt this from one dermatologic post on Linda Ikeji's blog sometime ago.

but a malignant melanoma isn't usually flat, or is it

Lagusta:

Hyperpigmented macules or patches is usually typical of melanomas. Basal cell and squamous cell CA have variable presentations( nodular, plaques , and sometimes ulcerated papules ).

Two things gave the question away
1) chronic sun exposure leads to two common skin changes: ageing changes ( wrinkles et al) and skin cancer.
2) hyperpigmentation has to do with increased melanin production and deposition. So it had to be melanocytes.

Wow....this is exactly what I've been looking for.. Well,I'm an aspirant.....NO scratch that. I'm a Medical student (Its called faith) .. Anxiously waiting for Uniben's Admission List. But I have Soooooooooo many questions to ask. I'll need a go-ahead so I dont end up just talking to MEself
