UNILAG 2013/2014 SUPPLEMENTARY LIST, WHAT TO EXPECT

UNILAG SUPPLEMENTARY LIST ANALYSIS
So the merit list is out, and thankfully, many of you made it. Regretfully, however, many of you didn't. This group of people are the ones now looking to the supplementary admission list to smile. To take off a little tension, and to prepare you for what to expect, we'd be analyzing the UNILAG supplementary admission list based on past occasions.

Congrats to the newly admitted medical students

 
You've made it!!! Among thousands of students who applied, you were selected. Wrong, not selected like in other parts of the world, but you merited it, you passed. Medical school admission is not something you're given, you take it by force. Since the time of John Hopkins, the colleges of medicine have suffered violence, and the violent take it by force.

A NIGHT TO REMEMBER

A poem by ZAZU, a medical doctor.

What! Past 10 and I’m still sleeping!
My alarm’s been beep-beep-beeping.
Should’ve been in class since seven,
I know I shouldn’t have eaten.
Man, I have read nothing today,
I didn’t come to school to play,
All these courses I must read them,
Off to class until 5.00am.
-with coffee, and packs of chewing gum
Just to drive off sleep when it comes.

#MEDICAL SCHOOL ADVICE: TIPS FOR BEING SUCESSFUL IN A MEDICAL EXAM




Tips for Being Successful on a Medical School Exam

So, you get your tentative schedule for your first week of class, along with some required reading assignments that will be discussed in lecture, power point slides, and maybe even some practice problems. What do you do? As I mentioned before, medical school is like sipping water from a fire hydrant. With that said, any chance you have to "get ahead" and lessen the high powered flow of information that is going to be coming your way, take it! You'll thank yourself later. Here are some suggestions for things that have worked for me so far.
1. Pre-read. Many professors will give you reading assignments for lecture. Read them, all of them if you can, but if you are pressed for time, at least read the introduction, all the bolded titles and subtitles and the conclusion/summary of the material at the end. This will help you have a basic foundation for the material that you are going to cover in lecture that day. You may feel like you aren't being efficient with your time since you are taking time to cover material that you aren't familiar with and that is going to be explained to you in lecture anyway, but trust me, this is extremely helpful.

#MEDSCHOOLADVICE: MAKING IMPACT IN YOUR CAREER




 Making   meaningful Impact in your Career by Joshua Tolulope Idowu

The future is so bright for those who are not just ready to get on their tracks but to run!  Not just running but running purposefully! Ben Carson is great a successful neurosurgeon who separated a craniopagus Siamese twins but he did not start from there, he ran a race in Medical School, Professor Devauchalle an Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon ran the race in dental school and he was the first person to carry out a face transplant! You want to break grounds? Don't sit there. The exceptional ones are Moving on while the general ones are sleeping. Do you want to be a  career fellow  just interested in other peoples ideas without trying to develop yours? Someone found the cure to Malaria or some group of people and so on.
