Zaimokuza:Schools don't give admission to second choice candidates not to talk of a medical aspirant. |

I know this is not exactly the right place to ask this question but i've been following this thread for awhile and i believe i'll get good answers. Please my sister wrote jamb this year and applied for nursing but now she is trying to choose between Unn and Unizik her initial choice during the jamb registration was Unn but she is thinking of changing to Unizik. Please is this a good choice |

Hi guys, Good morning.. 4 Likes |
Re: The medical students and aspirants thread by TONYE001(m): 9:09am On Aug 12, 2020 |
Lovelygrl: Hi. Basically, you'd be taking exams on the three core preclinical courses - Anatomy, Physiology and Biochemistry. The exam has three main parts: written, practical and oral. The written covers multiple choice questions, subjective questions (some schools) and theory. Usually, the practical questions are coined from your lab works from Year 2. Orals? Anyhow it goes! About the alloted marks for each part of the exam....just ask your seniors as this isn't the same across all schools. In my school, CA takes 30 marks, MCQ, 20 marks, theory, 20 marks, practical, 20 marks and viva, 10 marks... About past questions. Again, you should get from your mates/seniors. It's very important that you acquaint yourself with past questions before the main exam as there's almost always a high tendency of questions to be repeated. Good luck. 11 Likes |

Good afternoon sir. Can someone start and finish mbbs without spillover i.e repeating a class? The way I hear people talking about medical school is very terrifying .please sir, I would be very grateful if you help me by enlightening me. |

horpeyemmi66:good afternoon sir. Can an average student start and finish mbbs within the stipulated time, without repeating a class ? The way I hear people talking about medical school is very terrifying.i would be very grateful if you would enlighten me. |
Re: The medical students and aspirants thread by Donpre(m): 2:09pm On Aug 12, 2020 |
Deeemphasis01: Yes, of course. The fact is, although intelligence helps, med school is a whole lot more than just smart brains. So, provided you put in the work and study time, success is guaranteed. Make no mistake though, there is a lot of work, sleepless nights and a ton of reading to do. Although in my opinion, an 'average' student can't beat the competition to get into medicine. The moment that average student does that, he/she stops being average. 11 Likes |

Deeemphasis01:Hi, an average student who knows what he or she is doing can graduate at their stipulated time. Medical School is really fast paced and the bulk of things one is needed to know is sheer (who wouldn't be somewhat scared?). Nevertheless, 1. Knowing thyself is key, probably paramount. Understand what works for you. I for example cannot read in a moving vehicle, if I attempt such, dizziness ensues. Some other persons would definitely have no problem doing that. 2. The texts used or recommended by lecturers coupled with their PowerPoint slides and handouts are usually quite important. Where some lecturers are indifferent to the text you use, some would tell you to never use Sembulingam ever. However, for values especially in Physiology I think Ganong is the go to guy. 2a. Try understanding what a question states before attempting to answer, Haemostasis and Homeostasis are two totally different things. 3. Attend your classes. Sure, there are guys you would not see, not until it's time for tests or exams. How they find their way around the 75% attendance thing only God knows. Yet, wonderfully enough some of them still pass. Sometimes even more than the staunch class attenders. These are the ones that would say classes are a waste of time. Still, there are instances when one should miss class(es). When you get to such bridges, you would definitely know. 4. Try to always cover up on time. Medical School is not like the UTME where one can pick up Biology two days to the exam and still have a decent score. One can crash read Physiology MCQ (I don't suggest you do though), you shouldn't ever wish you have to crash read Anatomy or Biochemistry. *Crash Read: Loosely means hastily reading and understanding basic concepts and facts about a certain course which in most instances is not done in depth. Hence the adjective, "crash". It could also extend to logically selecting topics to be read based on cues given during lectures or those taken from course mates. This is usually in a lopsided ratio of 40:60. 60 in favor of a question not being asked on that topic. 5. Past Questions usually go a long way. Asking your seniors what some lecturers expect is quite important. Some lecturers would give you half of the total marks for just placing the diagram of what you're to describe without additional notes while some would award no marks at all. They usually have marking guides. 6. Do not take your lecturers at face value. A Anatomy lecturer once finished teaching Thorax (Heart). There was a test scheduled for the following day, the woman said people should not bother reading what she taught that day. They should only read all she has taught before that day as she would not be asking any questions on that day's topic. Lo and behold, the following day question number 2 was and I quote vividly: Describe the Surface Markings of the Heart. 7. Dissection sessions are very important (especially for steeplechase). Dissect the dead guy, note the things you should note and go do something more tangible with your time( you could come back for revision). At the beginning everyone wants to "cut" but that quickly fades away. Some guys would even waste time playing with the dead guys leg for example after all the muscles have been severed. In all of these, some people would not show up at all. 7a. For Histology samples, during Lab sessions, draw what you yourself can see through the microscope's viewfinder. Don't collect someone else's notes to dubb. On the exam day you would be asked to identify what you saw earlier, it makes sense if you have seen it over the microscope. If 10 people were asked to draw an item, you shouldn't expect the same result from all of them. 8. There's a difference between being stuffy and knowing what you should know to pass. In other words, there are some information that are cool to know but not necessarily important on the test or exam. While there are some you can't just escape, you just have to know them to perform decently. 9. Moving forward is better than a distinction in a Course +repeating a year(I don't think a distinction counts once a student repeats). Spread yourself evenly, more on your weaknesses, if you will, while not neglecting your strengths. Even if it's 50s across board, pass and go. 10. Some questions or their variations being asked on the tests of Physiology/Anatomy/Biochemistry/Pharmacology undergraduates are the same being asked at the Preclinical phase of MBBS/BDS. In other words befriend people in these departments, not just because of what you look to gain though. Being average is a thing of the mind. You are fearfully and wonderfully made.
