Travails of a young Nigerian medical student It all started with readers are leaders, Well,that may be true but our parents should have given exceptions, They should have helped us developed the other aspects of our lives we didn't know exists, Instead they cajoled us into this world of lies. They told us medicine is secured, Once you graduate immediately you get a job, So most of us entered medical school for the ego and money, One is already lost and the other is slowly following suit. Through Topping classes in secondary school, Through the rigour of passing WAEC and jamb, Not leaving out post-utme for those of us that wrote, We entered medical,the so much hyped medical school. 100level was normal,just like secondary school days, 200level hunted us with Anatomy, It stung us with physiology, And competed with mosquitoes in making us sleepless with medical biochemistry. Could life be any harder, Anatomy invaded our vocabulary with medial,lateral,superior, inferior just to mention a few, Physiology proliferated out tongue with -ilia, -penia, syndromes, -esia ,-cytosis and so on, And of course medical biochemistry wasn't left out,it stuck to our oral cavity with acetylCoA, -glcerates, phosphates and so on. Classes everyday, Practicals following closely ending in the evenings, The only time we have for ourselves being in the night when other students are sleeping, And amidst all these every time I want to wear my shoe,the number on it reminds me of my test scores, Most of us haven't failed any exam before, Most of us have so much confidence in our intelligence, But the orientation of a Nigerian medical school is different, In your intelligence You might fail. The Nigerian medical education system is built in a way to frustrate its students, To undermine the students efforts, A lecturer once told us that the lecturer is not happy if any of his students fail, But yet he'd mark their exam and only 50% would pass, But yet if the failed students were studying in Germany they'd pass the same exam, Our exams are harder than that of our colleagues abroad, Yet their medical system and school is better than ours. Our social life is reduced to zilch, Keith Moore hunts us in our dreams, Guyton is our alarm clock, it wakes us up if we try to sleep longer than normal, Our phones are so boring only filled with plethora of medical apps and textbooks, We're in school while other students are having semester and sessional breaks, Christmas is bae,because that is when we get to see all our friends medical school forcefully took away our closeness. But in all these,we still strive to be the best, We still struggle to read every time we imagine ourselves in that white coat, Amidst all the failed tests and frustration we still persevere, This might be me being melancholic yes, But this is the typical story of a young Nigerian medical student.

Great Nigerians, great students and great medics. I want to use this opportunity to solicit your support, advice and guidance. Please I am confused and deeply disturbed, disturbed concerning this coming UTME and subsequent 2017/2018 admissions. I want to study either of biochemistry,microbiology,physiology or anatomy as first degree in any of these uni Delsu,absu,ansu,imsu,funai, esut before proceeding to study medicine. Then my questions are as follows: Can I cross over to medicine on the successful completion of the aforementioned programs Must it be through direct entry or does other media exist Which unis allow their medical students complete a BSc in any basic biomedical sciences eg biochem, physiology e.t.c for 3/4yrs before the 3/4yr medical/clinical program leading to the award of mbbs. I heard of Delsu's similar policy but havn't confirmed really yet. What is the normal utme cutoff for biochem. And finally what are my chances to be admitted in delsu or Absu to study either of medicine or biochemistry being from Anambra state. Thanks in advance dasamek8@gmail.com 08065620425 |

[quote author=dasamek8 post=55945528][/quote] Well from your write up, You can apply to study medicine and surgery in any Nigerian universities after first degree via DE with a first class or 2.1(should the competition is fierce) in any of the BASIC MEDICAL SCIENCES. Concerning you second questions if i get it right, during preclinicals(200l-300l) you're going to offer anatomy, physiology and biochemistry as a course. |
Re: The medical students and aspirants thread by dasamek8: 7:14am On Apr 27, 2017 |
Ajet001:yea bro thanks, but the issue is that I will like to have degree in bioch before going for mbbs as done in some american institutions and probably Delsuth. |
Re: The medical students and aspirants thread by Nobody: 8:06am On Apr 27, 2017 |
dasamek8:Well if that is what you want, go for it., But why don't you secure your admission via UTME rather than wasting time for your first degree . Since MBBS is what you want in the first place. |
Re: The medical students and aspirants thread by dearpiriye: 9:01am On Apr 27, 2017 |
dasamek8:even if you get a degree in biochemistry you will still start from 200l |
Re: The medical students and aspirants thread by Nobody: 2:51pm On Apr 27, 2017 |
dasamek8: Hello! I'm actually a medical aspirant too but lemme talk my own 'little boy' talk. I don't really know why you want to do a BMS first but if it's because you're scared of the competition for admission, why not just, instead of spending all those years on a BMS, go for A'levels? It saves time as it's just a 1-year programme and the expense, in the long run, is not too different from that of a complete four year plus one (considering IT) BMS (may be even less). The most important is that it saves time. You can check up on JUPEB, IJMB or, preferably, CAMBRIDGE A'levels (with which you can even apply to foreign schools). Just a suggestion. |
Re: The medical students and aspirants thread by dasamek8: 3:27pm On Apr 27, 2017 |
dearpiriye:Thats it dear, just that I heard from one man in Delsu that such is done in delsu whereby a mbbs student is first allowed to complete a course in either anatomy,physiology or biochemistry. Anyway, just scared about admissions especially pertaining to medicine |

Hello everyone, pls does anyone know if unizik accepts direct entry for medicine and surgery...... I need answers ASAP pleaseeeeeee!!!! |
Re: The medical students and aspirants thread by dasamek8: 3:47pm On Apr 27, 2017 |
EbenMA:Reasons why I have chosen that way 1 admissions issues as related to medicine 2 passion for the biological science and science in general as related to biology and chemistry where analysis,computation,synthesis and other scientific activities are involved 3 Just like delsu biochem dpt 4 the essence of biochemistry or microbiology in medical and biol sci is tremendious 5 If I am not chanced to study Mbbs again bioch cert may prove useful cos I am considering to further my career abroad |
Re: The medical students and aspirants thread by dasamek8: 3:58pm On Apr 27, 2017 |
