My guy biochemistry is hard a fvck .wirh useles lecturers
Karleb:
Let me just be blunt here.

It's a fucking waste of time and resources, same as studying biochemistry.

Funnily enough, the course is so hard.

I can bet it with you that you'll end up doing something different from that course if you study it.

My advice is you start learning that thing you would do if Geology doesn't work out. Start now o.

The truth
No, if he/she is going to sch to get employed
Yes, if he/she need to be educated.
Or let him/her take it then engage in some businesses while in sch so as to gather money n leave this country exactly after nysc
My opinion though

It's all about Grace, I have seen someone with 2.1 Petroleum Engineering Uniport, teaching in secondary School after 5 years of graduation. He even manage to secure the teaching job after 3 years of joblessness. I have equally seen someone that read linguistics, working in one of the multinationals Oil company.

Petroleum Engineering is shi.t
He's better off with geology/Geophysics. There are little to no jobs in the oil industry. PE is too streamlined,I'll never advise anyone to study PE as a first degree. I'm studying PE and in my finals and I know better now,wish I had someone to put me through earlier on.

I repeat PE as first degree is a trap!!!
you have not applied for jobs yet that is why you have this opinion , graduate and start applying . Your opinion will change

In this side of the world, no course is absolutely good or bad, depending on many factors particularly your personal ability.
The aim of University Education is to prepare one for life.
More than 50 percent workers don't eat with what they study .
I learnt that Dele Momodu studied Yoruba.
Take it for now, at least to leave home.
When you get to the four corners of the University you will understand better so you can decide to write another Jamb or continue with it.
Even if you change course later no knowledge is waste. You may not know when the little knowledge will be useful.
If you stay at home to write JAMB later you may not get up to that point again.
You don't know tomorrow.
Anything can happen.
A bird at hand worths ten in the bush.
My own opinion though.
God bless you in whatever you decide

From your choice here, I assume you are good to some extent in maths. Hence, I will suggest instead of this Geology, tell your friend or you to read Civil or Electrical/Electronic Engineering. But if you know biology and have the needed funds, go for Medicine or Nursing.

pls don't let anybody deceive you. Geology is a very good course.Im working presently with an environmental agency as an accountant. All the geologist in our organization were giving level 9 and most of them usually considered as a state and zonal head. There are a lot of places geologist can work
It's like you didn't watch Buhari's interview that there are no jobs in Government. The focus here is private sector opportunities for geologists
