Hi everyone... I'm The Super Nerd. And I'm a Christian... I'm a young medical scientist who's on a classified research scholarship online with Johns Hopkins University's School of Medicine's Brain Science Institute(BSI). I'm an Online Neurosciences Research Resident/Scholar with John Hopkins Medicine Bsi which I became after a rigorous screening exercise(I came out no.1 in all). I also hold a B.sc(Hons) in Human Anatomy from Unizik and I just got into my 2nd medical degree studies in medicine and surgery through D.E. after making the top merit list ranking me in the top 5 (I am in line for actual resumption soon as I have a huge financial project at hand which I must finish first and then run things side by side with my second med. degree).
But there's more to me... Every one of us have dreams and ambitions with regards to our academic pursuits and each of us have identified an institution that we dream of attending if we had the chance... I believe u can make that dream come through because Whatever the mind of man can conceive, it can achieve..... For every field out there, there's one or maybe 2-3 world class institutions that you believe you can learn the very best and highest from. Share it on this thread... You can still get there... Is it harvard? Stanford? MIT? Michigan? Karolinska? Oxford? Calgary? Cornell? Cambridge? Yale? Johns Hopkins? Caltech? Stellenbosch? UC San diego? UC San Franciso? UCLA? etc.
Though I'm currently on online research schorlarship with Johns Hopkins Medicine BSI, one of my top academic goals is to take and pass(with a record score) the USMLE pathway exams to get into my dream medical institution, Johns Hopkins University Hospital(JHH), for my residency in Neurosurgery. According to the U.S. News and World Report, Johns Hopkins remain the world's no.1 in Neurosurgery and the U.S. No1 medical hospital(yep, they top Harvard's MGH).
I also plan to become a top research investigator with Howard Hughes Medical Institute(HHMI). These are the least of my Godly-Inspired goals and ambitions... Just the tip of it all but just wanna share with you all to ginger your spirits.
I know you all have yours, so tell me... What's your dream Institution? If given the chance right this moment to study anywhere in the world, where wud u go? You just might see the reasons to believe again and start working towards it or better still, you never know who's ready to give you that helping hand...

Graduate of Geology Unizik.

My aspirations nose dived due to financial constraints.

Wish to travel to Sweden or Denmark to further but right now, am left with no choice but picking a PGD form in uniben but might later fulfil my dreams in higher learning.

Congratulations bro, am happy for u

wow, i made this comment, now am in Germany on same masters degree 2 yrs later.

it can only start with a dream.

Wow! A Unizik Grad... Thanks Sir. I understand finances is probably the biggest challenge for most. But just keep working hard(go ahead, pick up that PGD form... Uniben's a fine School) and trusting the Lord... Your dreams will come true. But pls uhm...do u hv a particular swedish or danish institution in mind? And why Europe?

I love MIT, Stanford, Oxford and Cambridge

ElectGINeer:
i love MIT and Cambridge

Coool!!! MIT's Engineering Faculty/School is the very best (no.1) in the world. Cambridge's a great and world reknowned institution but does not come close to MIT and CalTech in Engineering courses. I sense u're an Engineering grad/student thanks to your name and Signature statement *smiles* So how do u intend to get into one of them? Got plans?

The Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge and Oxford it is for me.

Then MIT suits you just fine. But what about Stanford?... They cover these I.C.T. areas to super excellent degrees... Also you could hook up to world class I.C.T training from top experts or companies(eg. New horizons, u.s.a) to get u grounded in security systems and hacking thru cisco, microsoft, compTIA, or other platforms. Also, You could hook up to EC-council university(credited for building or having a hand in developing The FBI's hacking and security systems) for their CERTIFIED ETHICAL HACKER(CEH) COURSE PATHWAY. You can also get this training at new horizons, usa(found in nigeria and many other countries). As 4 programming Stanford, Caltech, MIT, and Harvard plus a few oda ivy leagues and top I.C.T institutions give u the very best. But which programming language interests u? C#, Java, php etc or is it one meant for Artificial Intelligence?

NDA or US military academy

walemoney007:
NDA or US military academy

Wow! Here's a military potential. What stops you from sitting for the NDA EXAMS? So long as u got ur SSCE, you're QUALIFIED!!! Follow your dream bro... even if it's with the U.S. military academy. Look, I went to a Command Secondary School where I graduated with top honors. I WAS RECOMMENDED FOR THE NDA PROGRAM BUT I REJECTED IT. WHY? It was not in line with my dreamz... My purpose lie in Science Research, Medicine, People building and much more. Military engagements wud not hv afforded me the time. THIS NDA OR U.S.M.A DREAM OF URS IS AWESOME... It just wasnt meant 4 me.
YOU STAND ON GOLD WITH THIS DREAM... DONT GIVE UP ON IT!
BESIDES, WHICH DEPT OF THE MILITARY INTERESTS U? Is it Weaponry? Engineering? Intelligence? Combat? Administrative? Etc... Which one?

Well, its a wish thread. My choice on Oxford and Cambridge stands notwithstanding, personal reasons.

I'm greedy when it comes to knowledge. I want 'deeper' knowledge like I said earlier. Already using C, C++, Java, SQL, PHP etc. I want to know them much more better than I do.

Ok Sir... Cambridge and Oxford are great citadels of higher learning notwithstanding...
And I love 'knowledge-hungry individuals' like yourself... I LOVE UR GREEDINESS *smiles* after all, the largest room in the universe is the room for improvement.

And uhm... One more thing. This is more than a wish thread... If you were just wishing, you wouldnt take the time to pen down the above. A lot of pple are viewing or hv viewed this thread with probably no dream to pursue but here u are... TAKE THIS FROM ME BRO. YOU CAN MAKE UR DREAMS COME THROUGH AND LIVE OUT THE REALITIES...
Aeroplanes, phones, internet, flying cars, computers, etc were once 'wishes'... ALL IT TAKES MY FRIEND TO ACHIEVE ANYTHING IS EFFORT and another name for Miracles is determined Effort.

Hmmm... Great course Sir. Futa is a great institution. I recall their students featured in the now defunct zain africa challenge, an academic competition for universities in Africa... So why Futa as a dream institution?

MIT again? Wow! This school is on everyone's lips. And I say a big 'AMEN' to ur prayers and confession. So uhm... Which course/field of study will take you 4 postgraduate studies there by 2018?
*You hv a time scale for ur dream... And I really love that*

Hello @Bolaji, am currently a student of Unilag studying Industrial Chemistry. But my dream university would be Harvard University

Excellent!!! I believe u plan going there 4 ur postgrad education(masters, phd or even postdoctorate)?
Harvard is great 4 ur field...

Then MIT it is... It's the world's finest and best institution for Engineering. Caltech, Purdue, Stanford and Yale are not far behind either. All the best bro... See u at the TOP...

Thanks bro wishing you too all the best in your pursuits

I revealed dis earlier in d sports section but no one really got it coz I was asked a straight question abt my studies at Johns Hopkins.
In my master post on dis thread, I said I'm an Online Research Scholar/Resident in Neurosciences at Hopkins, U.S.A.
Well... Just last week, I was made an 'ON-CAMPUS' RESEARCH RESIDENT/SCHOLAR. This means I get to 'officially' transit btw Nigeria and baltimore, maryland, U.S.A to combine my further medical mbbs studies in Nigeria(building on my 1st med degree with honors achievement) with my full scholarship 'classified' research Studies in Baltimore @ Johns Hopkins, U.S.A.
So yeah... I'm both an Online and On-CAMPUS research scholar on full research scholarship wit Johns Hopkins. THE LORD BE PRAISED! ! ! ! ! ! !

In Sha Allah, Stanford University for my master's degree program in Energy Resources Engineering

Cooool Sir! So tell me, why Stanford? Coz looking at ur course 4 masters, I think MIT mite suit u coz they have an energy initiative program sponsored by the U.S. GOVERNMENT dat makes them the university wit the highest research funding on Energy resources anywhere in da world.

I'm actually focusing on stanford cos their Energy Resources Engineering program focuses majorly on Petroleum Engineering cos I'm presently doing my undergraduate degree program in Petroleum and gas engineering. I'll try and also find about MIT's program on Energy Resources and see wat they av to offer.

Many wishes and dreams that Nigeria has killed. Lord have mercy.
