Please Doc. Can u mail these medical books to my Email daveojiyi@yahoo.com I will be eternally grateful

They're too large to be sent over email. Search with Google for the download links. It's also on 4shared.

Good day Dr Lomaxx and co's. Lol. Pls I would need pdf files of all the textbooks for 200L. Victoryagbujie@gmail.com

This is a very hard thing to do. For 200 level, I've listed my most preferred books. What you'd do is search on Google plus/minus 4shared and download.
Re: The medical students and aspirants thread by lomaxx: 1:41pm On Oct 29, 2014
Omonoba1:
pls whats the price range of the books cos i need them immediately after my exams..secondly, are their soft copies available?? Thanks!

I don't know the prices. I hardly ever use hard copy books. Soft copies are available. Search with Google.

Lol this is same as dads suggestion,tnks

I'll beg to differ.

Med school is 7 years(being realistic). You're currently in 200 level going to 300l and you have a medicine admission. You want to b a doctor. I see no problem in leaving whatever you're doing to do what you love- even if it means starting afresh. That is how it is done. When someone is admitted via UTME, he/she begins from 100level - irrespective of if you had a PhD.

Maybe you're young and you have so much time in your hands so you can afford to take those decisions. When it comes to career decisions, I don't think parental advice carry so much weight. Most often than none, they're subjective and prone to sentiments. Most of us have been in the system and from what we've seen over the years, we would advise differently. Which is what I'm doing.

Unless you have other reasons.

At the end of the day, it's your choice to make.

Good luck.

Start by removing the distractions - then study. Never study with the hope of containing distractions. It mostly never works. Even if it does- its not perfect.

I'm not a fan of studying for long grueling hours. It's not important. What is important is your goal of studying, having the right materials, and making sure you attain your study goal per time.

A man can decide to put 2 bags of rice on a wheelbarrow and push it from point A to point B. To everyone, he has worked hard. To him, he is working hard. You can see the sweat on his skin and his bulgy muscles attesting to the 2 bags of rice weight.

Another man can decide to put 2 bags of rice in van- to move from point A to point B. Well, this doesn't matter much to anyone. Nobody sees him. Nobody hears him. He doesn't work so much as MR Truckpusher. But he did what Mr Truckpusher did- moving two bags of rice from point A to point B.

Granted-to succeed, you would have to invest hardwork. But sadly, the most important thing is not the amount of work you do, but the amount of goals you attain per time.

I am not saying studying for long hours isn't good. My point is- no matter how long you study for ( 2 hours or 20 hours) place more emphasis on what you're achieving with that time instead of using the length of time as a measure of effective study. At the end of the day, when you're asked to write on the brachial plexus, nobody would ask the number of hours you studied. You'd be expected to produce what you should know.

This doesn't mean it's easier.

Long term memory depends a whole lot on repetitive studying. If my physiology doesn't fail me, there are two types of memories: short term and long term. When you're studying a concept for the first time, that information is stored as short term memory. Within a short while, you'd forget. To remember over a long period of time, you need to transfer this information from the short term to long term memory centers. This can only happen by repetitive studying- a term fondly called "potentiation" (look up physiology of long term memory and potentiation for more details)

Which is why I always advise that one studies :

1) Before a lecture
2) Pay attention during the lecture
3) Study what was taught immediately after the lecture. This gives you a chance to add more details if you want a distinction.
4) Revise at another time
5) Maybe one more time for folks that want distinctions.


To me that's all you need.

The other BCH-Medicine thing is a very personal affair. If you've wanted to study medicine all your life, on no account should you back down. At least, give it your best shot. If it works out, well and good- if not, at least you gave it a good try.

Don't spend too much time thinking of making the right decision. Make the decision - then stick to it
