Good day everyone.

I apply for medicine and surgery in UNIBEN and I have 268 in jamb.. But am scared because of my result.. So please what's my chance of getting admission into UNIBEN with this result?

You are not qualified for medicine because ur major or core subject are below average..the better option is to change to state university or u go for change of course that is less competitive in federal university

Ok...the truth is that u can study medicine with that kinda result...it's very good...congrats...
No mind plenty ppl when no even know u or ur personality/capability, whether u even spy get these gradesor not.
But seriously some of the comments here make some sense, even if they are crazy.
Do ur analysis well...know the subjects u enjoy, and stuff..check urself, what u honestly have a passion for...what u are naturally good at (ur hand work) and stuff...
It's not about what he parents want, or what u thing is it u want...look at ur choices and chose d best...trust me man..
Schooling doesnr neccessarily gyarrantee a bright future lil bru, I would k ow cos I have both a masters and almost a PhD in production engineering here from .UNIBEN.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't mathematics a mandatory subject for admission into Med School?

Admission into any of the top tier Southern universities like UI, UNN, UNILAG, OAU will be very tough even with a fairly decent result like this one. You'll be competing with literally the sharpest brains on the African continent, the overwhelming majority of whom are Southern Nigerians.

But if you're not too picky and you don't mind lowering your standards, you can waltz into any Northern university with that result. You'll be the one eyed king in the land of the blind.

so you didn't see Mathematics in that result?

NwaAmaikpe:




Your physical and biological sciences subjects are sadly amongst the weakest in your result.
You will not do well in Medicine.

A C5 in Biology means you have just an average knowledge of human cells, the anatomy and all the various systems that make up the human body.

A C6 in Chemistry means you have just a vague comprehension of chemicals, their properties and potential reactions with cells in the human body.

How can you diagnose and prescribe then without killing people? Those alone are the basics in MBBS.

My advice is this,
Study Geography and Planning or Geology up to the Ph.D level and you'd still be a doctor.

Afterall a doctor is still a doctor.
Even[b] Papa Sherifatu the babalawo's business card reads Doctor[/b].

Skoror

With this result u study any course of choice in any university of Nigeria

Even if u want to study ifa or babalawo ur result is enough

How did you score a B3 in use of English with such terrible writing skills? "am"? "I apply"

The result was probably gotten EXPOnentially lol.

You just need to score at least 80% in the post UTME. If not,you will not get a seat in medicine and surgery, considering the number of people having 9A1s

As much as I know, the grades you get in your WASSCE don't matter as long as you pass your 5 main subjects (Maths, English, Physics, Chemistry and Biology). There are people who studied Medicine in Uniben that their results were not as good as yours. Some even combined their WASSCE and NECO results.

What is considered for admission is your Jamb and Post-UTME scores. For instance, your UTME scores will be divided by 8 and your post-UTME scores will be divided by 2 (not sure if it's 2 or 4). So you can see that this your SSCE grades don't matter. Don't mind the people telling you that your WAEC result isn't good enough.

Your UTME score is great, just focus on acing your post-UTME and you will get Med & Surg by merit.

Yes u can, on two conditions:
1. Stay away from very competitive universities; especially UNILAG, UI
2.Study harder and score very high in post jamb exam
Wish u the very best of luck.

Maybe Medical Marketing..... You can do your house manship with GNLD, TIANSHI and the rest

Isobug:


Please how do you classify your Science subjects. Would you say Mathematics and Agricultural science are Arts or Science subjects?
I need your help please?

Both subjects clearly has nothing to do with medicine and surgery also, those are general subjects

Which f.u.cking UDUSOK? I would not attend that school if I was on monthly stipend. Usmanu Danfodiyo will never give a non indigene medicine. If they do I give you 5 Grand monthly till you graduate.

Your best bet is Vet Medicine. My classmate was the best graduating student in our time from the secondary school of the same Usmanu Danfodiyo and was not given Medicine because he was an Igbo boy.
Don't waste your time o

the only reason he'll not be given medicine in udusok is because he didn't make the 280 cut off point for medicine sir. we have a good number of Igbo guys here both as students n lecturers. I'm a non-indigene by the way.

Hope this one won't forget scissors in a patient's stomach during surgery

And your English language result is B3?
Subject; avoid OAU, UI, if you have unilorin as your catchment area you can try it otherwise change your prospective school quickly to the Northern Unis... Doesn't mean you can't be considered in OAU and the likes but it is going to be hard. U can also try EKSU being that they just started admitting Medicine students. Good luck.

What kind of nonsense have you guys been posting here since? Please, quote which chapter of JAMB bronchure said the requirements for medicine is A1 in all science subjects? No institution sets another requirements for O' level grades in periquisite subjects apart from five credits including English and Maths.

If your parent can afford to sponsor you with at least $3,500 to medical school abroad then I can assure you that you will resume medical school this year. You can seek expert guidance on www.medicaltravel.ng

God bless

This is th only sensible post here since. Nairaland has a lot of wicked people that are bent on confusing and discouraging people with serious issues. Imagine th kind of trash they have been pouring here since. So many of those with A1 at O' level struggled to even study Biology in the university. As long as you have five credits in the electives for Medicine including English and Maths, you are good to go.

In recent times,most universities use o'level heavily for admission....if you can get a uni that doesnt...then maybe

That's not true

Even the doctors 'emselves wish they had a better, more rewarding, less stressful, less vilified choice of preoccupation.

Everybody wants to study medicine and surgery.
