Lol...yup, ur course is useless in America...if u want to make good money

depends on what he wants

Mayflowa:


No! Even if you were giving admission. Fear not go catch you? U need to hv science basis to succeed in the degree program.

Medical courses are quite tedious

Alright thanks sir. its cause people with science course have a better chance of getting a good job after grad. Any hope for people offering business course?
I even saw someone on nairaland that said MSc in business admin is nothing if you're looking for a good job in usa.

Largely true. This is because their own citizens usually do art and social sciences courses. They only give job to outsiders when there is no qualified American.

But there lots of vacancies in health and It fields. Dentistry is hyper lucrative!

what about psychology?

do you desire a job in the academia as regards your field?

blaze612:
what about psychology?

I don't think there is an international equivalence for a psychology degree in Usa as @ now!or maybe in my State GA! Different States with different requirement as per professionals! All the clinical psychologist have seen were all US trained! I may be wrong though!

Brigadier7:

My course of study is accounting. yeah

Olacombs23:

My course of study is accounting. yeah

why don't you get a Master of Accounting then a
Doctor of Philosophy with a major in Accounting
(PhD)! And apply as a faculty officer to a University? And please don't tell me you considering the money aspect because you spend money to get more Money! Before I got my license As a Dentist here I paid over $200k dollars for 2years Tuition!!

Olacombs23:

My course of study is accounting. yeah

I make almost twice that amount per year now working 5 days a week and at times on Saturdays(Strictly by Appointments ONLY)! But like I said before, there may be other options available for the Art and Commercial Disciplines but I may not know!!

student loan of $200k. That's a huge debt. I cant collect it... And I doubt they'll give international student that huge amount of money.. I'll just find the commercial and art way. thanks again

Seems you don't get me! You use about 200k USD in Dentistry! Before they give you the loan you must also have a Co-signer who is a USA Citizen or PR! For the Masters and Phd I suggested, its Way Far Lower than 100K dollars!! 200k is only for my Discipline! You get?? Just google the tuition fees! Am sure it won't be upto 100k for both master and Phd in your discipline

Unless you can speak with an American accent please do not pursue that career. If they don't understand your accent or feel you can't communicate, jobs will be hard to find.

@ op, whats ur advise for a sociology graduate? HSE profesional course, PMP (prince 2) or a masters degree in medical sociology/ Criminilogy.
Thanks

So are u saying only those in science line can get credible jobs out there I disagree with that. I studied philosophy and am having my masters in marketing. And I have greater chance out there too...so na sick people full there, dem no do business abi #annoying post

For those of you whose dreams are to work in America, Here is a list of some Courses to study in Nigerian Universities that will make you a top shot in America!!


Dentistry: Dentistry remains one of the best professions in the world in terms of Pay and Job Satisfaction and work
Flexibility!Dentistry or Dental Medicine is Specialty of Medicine! When you study Dentistry in Nigeria and you wish to come over to the states to make a living, You gonna spend about 2years to get licensed after which you begin to Print money like a Printing Press! General Dentist under employments earn over $250K per Annum working 4- 5 Days a week. While specialist Dentist like Oral Surgeons, Orthodontist, Endodontist under employment earn between $350k- $500k per Annum! Those with their own Private Clinics can make as much as $700k-$1.2M Per Annum! I know of a Nigerian Oral Surgeon with two Clinics in North Carolinas, he Grosses $10k Dollars PER DAY(Without Tax and other Expenses).....Ermmh I happen to be a Dentist too


(2) Medicine: this profession still remains one of the best positions in the world! Also in terms of Pay and Job Satisfaction! Compared to Dentistry, practicing Medicine in America after Graduating from a Nigerian University is easier because you don't have to go back to school here! After Graduating, you only need to pass the USMLE after which you get into a residency Program! BUT The CATCH most people don't know here is, Because your Medical Degree isn't from America, there are some limited specialties and Slots available to you! E.g Finishing from Nigeria. Geting a Residency in Let's say General Surgery, Ophthalmology,Anesthesiology,Plastic Surgery and other Competitive Specialties IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE! You are ONLY going to be limited to Physician Specialties like Family Medicine, Internal Medicine and Emergency Medicine,Psychiatry!! The Pay of these specialties ranges from $180k-$300k Per Annum!

Pharmacy:Imperative to the healthcare industry, pharmacists not only fill
prescriptions, but also educate patients on the potential side effects of
their medications, teach them how to handle side effects, and monitor
which prescriptions each patient is taking to prevent mixing incompatible
drugs. Annual Pay Ranges Between $150k-200k

Nurses: This is well known by all and Sundry! I personal know of Some Nigerian Nurses that earn $5k Per month! Nurses like the Nurse Anesthesia can make upto to $100k!

Information Technology: Computer science, Software engineers, Computer Engineers infact the IT Professionals! IT Professionals work software and hardware upgrades, protect office
networks from hackers and malwares. They make over $100k year Depending on your Qualifications etc! Many of my IT friends earn between 80k-100k


Radiography, Physiotherapy, Occupational Health: if you hard working you net $80k

When people outside the US type about the US, they use !!!!!!!(exclamation marks) excessively, as well as overuse the happy emoticons.

When people have been in the US for a while, they use fewer !!!!!!!!!
