Go hang yourself then...
Why you are demoralising yourself? You better be determined and focus on so as you graduate successfully.
With such thinking you are becoming failure...
I graduated in 2008/2009, then 58 to 68 years old man came to lautech to study medicine and he participated in all the 100level activities.
In fact, his grandsons/daughters (I meant students) were mocking him. Guess what he cares less.

I know of someone that started medical such.at the age of 35 or 38 or so before he graduated he should be 40 something. He must have been a consultant now it's a long I hear from him. Oga has focus don't live your life to please.

Hmm, when I was in university, I knew medical students who finished primary school when I was still in Nursery school, and some who even finished first degree (bsc) when I was still in secondary school.(two who even finsihed Bsc when i was in primary school self.). One of my seniors even graduated in another course, worked for a while, and then went back to university to do medicine. By DE even.

All doctors now.

Better not let your age disturb you. I also know many guys and girls who would donate their right kidney and liver just to study medicine (ok, I am exagerrating, but you get the point).

Besides going by your age you're still a youngster on the right path.

I am close to 60yrs, if I have the opportunity to read medicine, I will not think twice to start the study. It is either you are not destiny to do it or not getting on well with the course.

I am older than you are. But I am still in 300L studying Medicine too. NDU to be precise.

I don't feel I'm too old. Infact, I have men also older than I am in my class...

Rather, I thank God for the opportunity,.and I keep receiving grace everyday when I pray, that I may graduate successfully and become that Doctor that wants to make a difference.

During 300L I was 31. Only diff was more money to spend, didn't attend school regularly self. You care what ppl say and it will ruin you if not taken care of. You better start minding ur biz, anyone in ur circle trying to intimidate u with stuffs like degrees, family, etc cut them off. The more u see them the more u think u are not doing well. There are over 9b ppl on the planet and u allow some pack of 6-10ppl decide ur life?

I have read all the comments on this thread and must say i am ashamed of myself for being ungrateful. I guess it's the frustration from ASUU strike and all. May God forgive me

Wasn't making headway when I got to year 3. You know that feeling that getting a thing will be difficult and even after getting it after the difficulty it might not be worth it. So I decided not to waste time. If not for COVID and ASUU I should be rounding up service now.
I get it.. Good luck bro.

Thanks, but for the record why I wasn't making headway was because I was not passionate about accounting. Was just looking for a simple course that could serve as option B. My real dream is to be a pro footballer and even be in FIFA franchise. I still believe I can make it though. Afterall I'm just 19(football age wink*)

I know someone who's 30 and still at med sch. When you become a graduate, you will realize the worth of what you have.

Better change your mentality and brace up.

Do you have anything you're doing besides medicine? If no, figure it now.

Bro, I graduated medical school at 31, after x+2. I'm almost a plastic surgeon now and barely remember med school palaver. Hang in there.
