Hello guys,
Kindly advise here.
My daughter has B2/B3 waec scores in the key science subjects and 280 in JAMB. She wants to go for MBBS. Which federal university in south/west can she get to with this credentials.
Kindly also advise what course she could change to (if MBBS is not possible this year) that will provide opportunity for switch to MBBS in 200L next year.

Thanks all.

Nothing like switching in 200l. If she wants MBBS, she should get it in 100l.

Chances of switching to MBBS in any public university is less than 10%

She can try Olabisi obasanjo University or LAUTECH. The cut off for those school are not as high as some federal universities in south west. But try to consult people about their mode of ission.

She surely can come to Unizik. Here, she can get a medical related course like med lab or radiography. She can only switch to medicine after she's done with 200 level. Therefore, she must do 100 and 200 level before switching to medicine. That implies, when switching, she's ing 200 level in medicine. That's the rule on Unizik. It's not quite difficult but not quite easy too. If she's determined, she will.

According to the format Unizik used to it for 2023/2024, her aggregate score will be 294. It's not bad. It's still very much okay to. get her medicine. At least the quota was recently increased to 200.

What advice would you give a medical aspirant who scored 287 and 16.4 olevel.
She is from ondo state attempting to apply for Unilag but is scared due to her not very strong olevel result.
What university can she apply for medicine

It's better to abort mission on medicine. 287 score is just too low for medicine in Unilag. Let her pick Radiography or physiotherapy. Then she should target nothing less than 23 in post utme. That's my candid advice.

Unilag will be tough for her even though Ondo is in Unilag catchment area. JAMB score not high enough.

Her total before PUTME IS 52.275. If we assume an Ondo catchment cut-off mark of 82. It means she needs to score 30/30 in the PUTME.

Do not know if Unilag has implemented the doubling of Medicine quota by the government. If Unilag has done it, it might reduce the cut-off.

Good afternoon.
I finished with a first class in Biochemistry.
I applied for direct entry with an 0'level of A1 and 4 B2... Please which school is preferable between unilag and unijos?
I am considering unilag because of its proximity while unijos because I think it should be less competitive...

Your advice will go a long way.
Thank You

Please I need advice.
I am an mbbs aspirants who scored 339 with 4B3 and 1 A1 currently running JUPEB in unilorin.
But I have an uncle telling me to pick Unilag.But I am scared due to the fact that Unilag mbbs cut off mark was around 86 in 2022,84 in 2023.
And I don't know what it might be in 2024 considering the fact that a lot of people scored 300+ this year.
Unilorin on the other hand has a very slow academic calendar to the extent that the 2023/2024 aspirants haven't been itted.
I need advice because I don't want to waste 339 this year🙏🙏


Unilorin? Slow Academic Calendar?? I laugh in Speedboat.
I'm a 300 level Medical student of Unilorin.
The 2023/2024 Aspirants haven't been itted yet because Unilorin wants to combine 2023 + 2024 Aspirants this year.
The school just ended a session last week and would start a new Session probably october/Nov or Nov/December.

I think it depends on your school and what your lecturers are using to teach and grade your scripts.

I’m not even a medical student and I know it is almost impossible to cross to Medicine. Are you sure you’re in medical school? No one will advise even their enemy to study Anatomy or Physiology In Nigeria.
