Interview season is winding down and budding physicians everywhere are clutching tightly to their hard-fought medical school acceptance letters. I thought now would be an opportune time to reflect on what I wish I had known before starting medical school.
Let's boil it down to five essential aspects of medical school that you wouldn't expect or are of such crucial importance you should be reminded of them.

MEDICAL SCHOOL: A POEM BY ZAZU


From Amoebas and chloroplasts
To nucleated erythroblasts.
I always linked old ships with masts,
Mast cells have made me recast.
Rulers, rockets, rheostats,
Thank God that’s all in the past.
I would yawn as time strolled past,
Now it’s running very fast.
Have you seen my day’s forecast?
Class to class, then back to class.
My class cannot be outclassed:
From the first guy to the last
Bureaucrats and Diplomats,
Quintessential Plutocrats
Geeks & Wizards, Fat & Phat
Geese & Gizzards, ratty Brats.
Pastors, Members, Counterparts,
Photostatting copycats.
Then, when results are broadcast,
Mehn, come and see acrobats.
‘Cos no feeling can outlast
Your joy, knowing you have passed.
So much joy, but in contrast
Many skies are overcast,
For among the enthusiasts
There are those who haven’t passed.
I once thought all docs had hearts,
But now I am very smart.
And it goes far beyond that:
My brain has been torn apart.
Renin? Rennin? This or that?
Who knows glucose glucostat?
ALT ain’t alternate.
CAT is not after a rat.
FISH is not part of breakfast,
PDA is in the heart.
Hippocrates where you at?
We need to have some chitchat.
‘Cos in that oath that we chant
Some lines are irrelevant;
You should see machines we gat
They are more than works of art.
First the kidneys, then the heart,
Now it’s bone marrow transplant.
I was a genius, so brilliant,
Now I look so ignorant.
Surgery was done by humans,
Now robots have other plans.
The future is so pregnant,
Time is never hesitant.
Soon the scalpel will depart,
Stitches insignificant,
Foetuses will choose their looks,
We’ll do surgery on Facebook

MEDILAG HOTSPOTS FOR LOVERS

So you're a medico in Idi-Araba and wanna catch some fun with your *****, these places you help. At your own risk tho



MEDILAG’S BEST KEPT SECRETS

In a school that literally never sleeps, it’s hard for lovers to get some privacy to do ‘what lovers do’ but believe it or not as impossible as it may sound, whether noon or night, couples in Medilag have come up with exclusive lovers’ spots, where they brazenly carry out ‘acts’ of love. Writers club put nose to ground and sniffed out some of the secret places couples go to be alone. Well guess after this, it would no longer be a secret, Sorry guys…

10 Labour Ward Medical Students’ Call Room: We are starting with this place because the school now also knows the alternate use to which the call room is put thanks to some couples who forgot to pack all their bag and baggage and left behind a used contraceptive for one of the cleaning ladies to discover. Now, you also know why for some time medical students that were not on call couldn’t get in to the labour ward.
9 College Library: the library all over the world has always been a romantic haven for couples who like to live on the fast lane; well Medilag is not an exception! Lovers that can’t wait for the covers of darkness, hide under the covers of bookshelves. Yes, they are responsible for the creaking noise you hear while you are trying to read!
8 Stairs Of Old Great Hall: If you have ever wondered what the first floor of the Old Great Hall is used for, the couples of Medilag have the answer. Anytime between the hours of 10:00pm and 2:00am, if you climb this staircase, you run the risk of running into half naked people swapping saliva.
7 Former Football Field: the football field closure was an all round tragedy, both for sportsmen and Medilag couples. Where else could you go to make out, look at stars and feel the grass scratch your back and yeah of course, play football?
6 Anatomy Lab Car Park: reserved exclusively for couples with cars. Yep! Your guess is as good as mine; all the cars parked outside don’t belong to the anatomy staff. They don’t stay up that late…
5 London Bridge: what is the London Bridge? Well, the London Bridge gets girls into boys’ hostel after visiting hours and also houses couples who don’t mind a little P.D.A. Where is the London Bridge? Well there are 3 of them and they run between blocks 1 and 2.
4 S.O.N. Field: popularly known as the most blessed ground on the premises of Medilag going by the number of prayers that go on there daily. Well, unknown to many, as the prayer warriors pray fervently, the lovers are committing all the atrocities that are forbidden by God right on the same field!
3 Hall 36 Car Park: ever heard of a drive in cinema? Well, Hall 36 is Medilag’s equivalent of that except that there is no projector, no screen and no movie but wound up cars, hugging, kissing and well.. you get the picture!
2 New Great Hall Staircase: it’s convenient, why? It’s close to cold room, so when a boy is tired of reading all those medical jargons and needs a break, he grabs his girl and heads up the new great hall staircase and they are entertained by the music from the fellowship going on downstairs.
1 Luth Cafeteria: might not be the first place that comes to mind when you are hungry but it is definitely on a lot of text messages if you know what I mean. The maze like verandah keeps inquisitive security men away, while the tall flowers keeps off curious eyes. Recently, a couple was found frolicking on a carton on the verandahs of Luth Cafeteria and it made good talk between security guards but it also shed light on what is Medilag’s best kept secret when it comes to romance…the Luth Cafeteria!

From this, its obvious the foundation extrance exam result isn't out yet and wouldn't be anytime soon. This is probably due to the ongoing ASUU strike.
