Sembulingam vs Guyton.

I've been using guyton though, but I must confess ever since I checked sembu I've been having double mind, shey I no go port go semb.

Has anyone gotten a distinction with sembu or close to.
In my school(UNN) for you to pass/ get distinction, you've to give them what they give you. That's to say your slides are enough. Guyton and Sembu is just for further reading or gain more knowledge.

I’m not even a medical student and I know it is almost impossible to cross to Medicine. Are you sure you’re in medical school? No one will advise even their enemy to study Anatomy or Physiology In Nigeria.
Yes
Unlike most other places, if they've got the necessary qualifications, there is a very high likelihood of crossing here in FUTA.

Please I need advice.
I am an mbbs aspirants who scored 339 with 4B3 and 1 A1 currently running JUPEB in unilorin.
But I have an uncle telling me to pick Unilag.But I am scared due to the fact that Unilag mbbs cut off mark was around 86 in 2022,84 in 2023.
And I don't know what it might be in 2024 considering the fact that a lot of people scored 300+ this year.
Unilorin on the other hand has a very slow academic calendar to the extent that the 2023/2024 aspirants haven't been admitted.
I need advice because I don't want to waste 339 this year🙏🙏

You can consider UNIUYO. The school uses only UTME scores to admit, provided you have a minimum of credit in the 5 O'level subjects for medicine.
The cut-off mark has never gotten to 320 before. Also, with the increase in quota to 300, with your score, you can be sure of getting medicine.

My part 1 MB results are out.
I'm to resit anatomy and physiology, I can't believe my eyes truly.
More than 50% of my department failed physiology.
How is this even possible but nobody wants to take up the case with school management.

I feel my medical dreams are already over.

Update!
I passed my resitting exams, I just hope this would encourage any other medical student that may be in this same position.

It wasn't funny, I was studying 10 hours per day and some times not sleeping at all.

Greetings chief. Please, in medical school; how do you study and learn generally, maybe diagrams and complex stuff

Everyone studies differently but I personally hate textbooks, They make me sleepy and I barely get any substance.
I use youtube ALOT, For anatomy. I used Dr hasna ( a Pakistan female lecturer) She more than enough to cover both obj and theory aspect. I also used Dr bondok as well for anatomy If I needed more knowledge.
For physiology and biochemistry, I used ninja nerd, Mr matt&Mike and a few other people.
I then wrapped up every reading by going through the lecturers slide.

The only time I used textbook was for reading essential physiology when I needed to get info I was struggling to get on the web.

Just to give you a highlight of how much I use youtube, I'd have 600 videos of different topics downloaded grin


On the diagrams part, I'm a very poor drawer so If possible, I always avoid drawing but if you can then pls do because it always carries extra marks.
I only learnt how to draw histology slides because it earned a lot of marks. So ye, always learn how to draw those complex slides.

My study time is usually 10am-4/5pm. I don't study at night as I use that period to do my personal hobbies like maybe watching a movie or gaming, At least make person enjoy life small.

But ofc during my resit period, I studied 24/7 as long as I was awake and took energy drinks to stay awake (this I don't recommend as it gave me mutiple horrible headaches)

Last piece, Always make a note on past questions or questions to constantly revise, It helps to build up residual knowledge, You have to read the same thing like 20 times and you fit still forget am because we study SO MANY things but at least you'd have an IDEA.

Good luck.

My thoughts on research while still in medical school; is it really necessary?

For those who are already into research, I found out a great AI powered research tool.

You're welcome.
If she's doing Medicine, then she has to start preparing very rigorously to hit above 90 in post utme to get it. That's because she's competing with many candidates who scored 300+.

So, first option, score 90+ in post utme.
2nd option, change course to MLS, Physiotherapy, Pharmacy, Radiology.

I'm wishing her success.

She should try other schools with low cutoff marks. Don't allow her 287 to waste.

Medicine is the safest career out there any where in the world. People are being made redundant in tech industries.
And as a doctor , just aim to practice medicine in Aussie, Canada and US. Your life would never remain the same . You would out earn techies or earn at their level.

It's been a long time on this thread. Just stumbled upon it again. Came as an aspirant, finished medical school , typing as a family medicine resident doc in the UK.

Kudos to everyone

Congratulations Dr. Vincent.
