bukie26: A little enlightenment if u don't mind. Lets say you have three courses in your mind you want to study, knowing the statistics of those courses can help you in your decision. Since you know your level of intellect and reasoning, it's fair to say you can roughly calculate your performance and make a decision. e.g Chidi wants to study either Medicine, Pharmacy or Biochemistry. Lets say he's an average chap, knowing the statistics might make him select a less competitive course giving him an edge. So instead of applying for MBBS which he knows only 100 candidates will be chosen, he might go for biochemistry giving him a higher probability of gaining admission. He could still apply for MBBS but i doubt he will be chosen cos they r guys more brilliant than him vying for the admission. And what makes you think those brilliant peeps ain't prayerful too. So it all boils down to intellect (minus the runz things ). So it's not about God deciding your fate. It's about trying to gain an edge. Or will u tell me that out of 7000 ish candidates left out of gaining admission, some didn't pray abi. Another thing is that even if u decide to go for that competitive course, you now know the challenge and the element of surprise is gone. Meaning it serves as a gentle reminder that you need study hard cos plenty are those vying for that admission you seeking and only few will be chosen. In war, having a stick and knowing your enemy has a machine gun doesn't change your stick into a gun but it removes the element of surprise and that little knowledge can be factored into a strategy where you can gain the upper hand. I had rather know my enemy has a gun than getting into his range of shot then knowing how fvcked up i am. That my friend is the survival of fittest. 8 Likes |

Infact wat abt peepx dat dnt even hv an idea of statistics (non nairalanders) xo wt wud dey do? Dey stick to one course cos dey have no fear in dem( no idea dat thousands of peepx reg same course nd same sch) statistics dosnt determine courses 4 dem xo wt I feel is askin dosnt change anytin cos ten thousands of peepx out der will still do as dey wish micynute94: 1 Like |

bukie26: Lol. Am the NL'der who thought it was wise to bring in statistics as a tool. I get what you are saying, but the fact is you still don't get it. The fact that most non naira landers would have stick to their course doesn't mean we have to(or we don't have to). Just as someone mentioned, that extra push goes a long way, it makes you set your priorities right. I thought i explained the reasons for the statistics. If you look at the way Nigeria institution admit candidates you will know then know how powerful it is I could give you a 1001 reasons why you should use it but the catch there is until you decide to really see what the tool is for, am sorry you will fail to see the bright side of it and nothing i say will change your mind. #PEACE 2 Likes |

bukie26: Can i call you bukky? K.. Bukky. Lets say you wanna choose comp sci. Knowing the statistics can help you choose a school where the probability of gaining admission is high. For example, First time i checked for comp science for Unilorin.. i got 668 candidates, for medicine in Unilorin i got 1000 something sha. Now presently candidates for Unilorin comp sci is over 1000 and over 5000 for Medicine. If you check similar schools, you will surely see a trend like this. There's a geometric increment in competitive courses like this and kinda arithmetic increment in less competitive course. Now what am trying to pass through is, there is a proportionality between the rate of students applying in their a school to other rate of students applying in other schools. A little bit of an example for clarification. Suffice to say that if at this current moment Unilorin has 5000 candidates applying for lets say Accounting while the figures for four other schools for the same school is 2300, 1200, 3700, 2900. An increase in the candidates applying for accounting in unilorin will also show an increase in other schools. Meaning in the nearest future, Lets say two weeks from now, if the figure for Unilorin is 7000, the figures for other school would have increased. Now the tricky part is this.. Even though there's an increase in other schools, the probability of the school having an initial figure of 1200 to emerge as the school having the most candidates is very low. I doubt if the school with an initial figure of 2900 will have more candidates applying for accounting than the school with the initial figure of 3700. Hope u following sha.. This means you could use the statistics to look for a school that offers you more edge of gaining an admission. As of now, the candidates applying for comp sci at UI are less than 500 while for Unilorin is over 1000. Now tell me which school offers more edge provided every other thing remain constant. Things such as Catchment area, ELDS, Aggregate scoring, etc. P.S: Am sorry if my explanation Seems like rambling.. my brain ain't cool enough to supply an easier explanation 1 Like |

micynute94:Guy, you have to consider some factors too Not everybody That applied for a course will score 200 and above moreover after Jamb exams, some people will still do change of institution/course For example, Let's say 10000 candidates applied outrightly for medicine in Unilag...... There's a probability that not all of them would score 200 and above meaning those ones will have to do change of institution into universities that accept 180 plus,that's one the other one is that some people might score low that they might think their scores might not give them medicine like unilorin who has already set their cut off for medicine at 240, and let's say the candidate scores like 222, such a candidate might consider doing change of course into less competitive one Hereby the Number of applicants(10000) for that outright course has depreciated . My point is now that checking of jamb statistics is good and on the other way is not reliable..... Just follow your instinct, choose the course you can be sure of and make a plan B!!!! 1 Like |
