Lol.. they are not in top schools, they are not in many schools.. Dude... You can't argue this at all.. It's not even reasonable to argue with you.. You are comparing a broad course in oil, environmental, plant, food, geoscience, space and medical fields....you are comparing it with a course in only medical line.. Imagine this insult ooo.. Is it salary range you wanna compare, is it the unlimited potential in career you wanna compare? I studied med microbiology, and yet I could leave it and go into oil, bioremediation etc... Or is it because Nigeria is limiting the course? Ant comparing itself with elephant.. Who will they pick in research between a medical microbiologist and a medlabsci? After hospital and diagnostic labs that pays not more than 300k for those that have more than 20yrs, which other high end salary is in medlab ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Lol, you are in 400lvl, so I won't blame you... Your brain never develop well.. Leave school first and enter life... Then we can talk.. For the other people reading this that's trying to make a decision btw medlab nd mcb, just know you can't practice with your Nigeria license outside this country, you still need to take part in a training before taking the exam... That's up to 12mnths I'm sure... Just think about that.. You are limited to Nigeria where I can assure you, you might get employment easier but your salary won't pass 300k in your lifetime... 300k is even too too too much.. it's only for the Baba in the course that spent over 25yrs in the field.. unless you wanna go into academics, which is the same salary as other courses.. if you go into academics, I can assure you, MCB get more and easier grants than medlab.. that's if medlab do research sef ![]() ![]() ![]() You can go for that and be limited or go for MCB and be committed.. i can assure you the ISS is your starting point.. I am 26yrs and I'm already making 230k per month in my job.. that's apart from the Forex trading and IT work I do.. Just be committed, I assure you, you won't regret it.. We like fast and cheap success in Nigeria and your peers will pressure you.. but I say again, hard work and smart work pays.. can't argue anymore.. Peace ![]() *drops mic John out |

Johnblakii:you sound really pained my dear, MLS is not the cause of your problem. Lying unprovoked won't change anything, The highest number of healthcare workers in NCDC are medlab scientist, the DG of NCDC said that himself when he was clarifying status of life insurance for health care workers. The president of Association of MLS works at WHO, you can google him Dr Bassey E. Bassey. As a medlab scientist I only need to write licensing exam to practice in UK as a biomedical scientist or US, Australia. you can check the various threads in travel sections. We have Medical lab scientist in various spheres of life. Don't hate on what you can't beat, you have seen the reality you can't practice fully without a license and coming online to type rubbish. Even the PCR labs are been set up my medlab scientist who went into biomedical engineering, you can google the new PCR Lab Edo state govt commissioned few days back and check the profile of the owner of the company that set it up from scratch, he is even a young medlab scientist with less than 10years post licensing experience. 8 Likes |

This is from Australia migration thread and as you can see, you can't be licensed to practice in medical lab there with BSC in Biochemistry or microbiology. Is Australia a developing country?

Johnblakii:The same way 99% of MCB graduates Think their Calling is in the Medical Laboratory. They End up Specializing in Medical MCB only to Find out its all Nonsense. ![]() I can Bet that was What you Did and was Hoping it would Work. You don't know we do Biomedical and Forensics?? You see your Life. Nigeria is Holding Everyone back. As Far as Medical Laboratory Goes,be it in that NCDC,Research Institutes, Hospitals, Name them.

Johnblakii:Oga, you did not study Medical Microbiology but Microbiology. Medical Microbiology is a specialty for Medical Doctors.. And who cares if you make 1 billion per day ....I can bet my balls that where you're working is unrelated to microbiology....You're talking about restrictions, just remember we're in Nigeria not USA. MCB is poo in Nigeria.That course is so useless that they're not allowed to work in the lab ..keep deceiving yourself and before you start name calling I'm neither in MCB nor MLS |
Re: Studying Microbiology Or Medlab Which Is Better? by Johnblakii: 6:20pm On Jun 07, 2020 |
Lol... you bet your balls? what else do they do in the lab abeg? did they teach you what microbiology is? because you did not get a job as a microbiologist? because the brain-dead school you went to contains graduates of microbiology that did not get job in their field? guy, microbiologists are getting jobs.. u just don't know,, check out this pic.. how many years it will take you to be a lab technician that you people are fighting for... This is from the American Society of microbiology...

Enjoy your MCB but the Fact still remains, MLS is the better Option within and outside. Mr MLS doesn't work in NCDC ![]() ![]() |
Re: Studying Microbiology Or Medlab Which Is Better? by Johnblakii: 9:03am On Jun 11, 2020 |
okay... graduate first, and after spending 30yrs in a dead-end lab in one hospital, come back and argue. because we both know that is where most of you will end up. Can't imagine someone comparing a course in one field to a course in about 5 fields. https://www.historyofvaccines.org/index.php/content/articles/careers-vaccine-research check that website.. that's a field they will never see an MLS in.. and you want me to compete with you in a 100,000 dead-end job in a dry ass hospital.. *I spit |

To the question: � I believe there is no better profession to pursue, it all depends on your God(if you believe in one) interest, goal and vision. �There are many ways to reach one particular goal. �Studying MCB or MLS will not make much difference if you do not press on and have your eye set on your vision. �Though I will say MLS is easier outside the gates(but tougher inside the gates) to make your dream come through because not all will get grant or scholarship. �My example, I want to be a virologist and all I could think of then in 2011 was to study MCB because that is all I knew. But MLS found me and I embraced it with full joy with my goal set towards where I am going. I saw a better light when I got to MLS that my goal will be easily accomplished because MLS is all encompassing. You will be taught almost everything (research, biomedical engineering, clinical chemistry, histopathology, forensics, molecular biology with practical, applications of all your head knowlegde, Biotechnology, haemotology, medical microbiology and parasitology, psychology, anatomy, physiology, biochemistry, Industrial microbiology, pharmacology and lots more) and hence many field to master in your Masters degree. And then I plan to progress into PhD in Virology. �MCB has been in Nigeria since the inception of Universities while MLS just gained full power in 2003 so think for yourself how MLS could have gained so much attention from MCBs, MDs and many others. �Medical laboratory scientist or technologist is far different form Medical laboratory technician, I mean very far. �MLS has MMCB in it as a bonus while MCB do not have a tip of MLS in it. �And lastly please do research more on the internet, I recommend starting form Wikipedia down to schools in USA, Australia, New Zealand, UK etc. Well done, keep on forging. We will all get there. 3 Likes |

MCB was never meant to be for only medical courses. Yall think when someone mentions mcb, it deals with health. you are wrong. that is why it is necessary to further into specific fields. but mls is restricted to only the medical line. with a bsc in mcb, you can get a msc in mls outside this country.. i studied bsc in mcb, msc in medical microbiology and received training in medical lab science. i can do any work a mls person can do.. and it took me just 6 months of training.. can you guy even do proteonomics and genomics? I don't think you guys can even do cancer research and DNA study in nigeria.. i hear say they taught you guys that... in the research field, who is more oriented and diverse between mcb and mls? it is surely mcb... anyday, anytime... meanwhile, I could drop the msc degree and still go into oil, environmental, food and industrial microbiology. we in mcb got an internship with Exxon mobile before graduating. i could work in a brewery.. etc.. that is why I said you can never compare mcb with mls.. with a mls degree, you cannot work outside the medical line.. i understand and agree that bsc in mcb is not better than a mls degree... but we have different fields to further in... and we could choose the medical line and still have a fallback in case it does not work out in themedical loine.... |
Re: Studying Microbiology Or Medlab Which Is Better? by Johnblakii: 11:48am On Jul 15, 2020 |
also tell me which is more recognised... A MCB degree or MLS degree worldwide? MLS is only recognised in the medical line... whoever that is reading this, if you are not a diligent person, choose MLS..... if you are really committed, choose MCB... because you cant get much in your career with just a bsc in mcb.... but when you further, you will gain more grounds in months than mls degree get in years.. i assure you that... everybody needs to defend his degree to make himself/herself less depressed... but let us be logical without sentiments.. mcb is a better career than mls.. |
Re: Studying Microbiology Or Medlab Which Is Better? by joyusen: 11:19am On Oct 15, 2020 |
Johnblakii please I need you to mentor me. MLS are really pushing everyone out of the lab because they are limited to that area. Please reach me on jojeomogha@gmail.com. I really appreciate your contribution. You've made me understand somethings I'm confused about. Thank you. |

Hahjascho:Respect someone points of view so that they can make the same mistakes you made.I think he has been diplomatic enough in his enlightment. We were all brain washed in University with useless courses all in the name of orientation.SLT,MCB are all useless courses compare to the likes of Medcine,Nursing or MLS..if the Op couldn't make Medcine then he sud opt for Nursing or MLS..SLT n MCB are all jack of all trades n are useless.. I do advice prospective undergraduate this days to go for medical courses or learn a trade with any other courses u are offered. |
Re: Studying Microbiology Or Medlab Which Is Better? by Johnblakii: 11:25pm On Jan 28, 2021 |
Just like Medicine, you can't just stop at BSC level for MCB. you have to specialize at postgraduate level... dude, it is because mcb association is weak that is why MLS have mouth in nigeria. trust me you guys are just lab technicians elsewhere.. I will say it again... a graduate of mcb just needs 6-month training to get the medlab license abroad,,,, Nigeria is just a useless country that is why you have ground.... a country where history graduates work in space research organization.... in all the breakthroughs in medicine and infectious disease since the creation of this world, have you heard any MLS graduate discover something? modena and pfizer scientists who created the vaccines for coronavirus, check their degrees... they are vaccinologists, microbiologists, biochemists and doctors... and they all have skills in lab science without going through 4yrs of useless school to restrict themselves in just one field. please be guided ooo.... |

Re: Studying Microbiology Or Medlab Which Is Better? by femianski: 5:36pm On Jun 01 |
phrabz:There's nothing like MSc. Med lab. There's only MSc in one of the specialties. And that doesn't grant you license to practice in the medical laboratory. That 18 months program has been scraped off many years ago. You'll have to go back to school and get BMLS for you to be licensed. [/quote] 1 Like |
Re: Studying Microbiology Or Medlab Which Is Better? by Scholar212(m): 9:08pm On Jun 01 |
phrabz:Better ignore whatever you read there. They are 99% incorrect. You are better off going for medical lab and specializing in Microbiology, there is no conversion program again. Even with Msc in medlab as long as you don't a BMLS you are not recognized as a Medical Laboratory Scientist. There is no microbiologist job posting a medical lab scientist in Medical Microbiology specialization can't apply for. But the other way round does not apply most times. |
