Hi everyone in today's post, I would like to discuss a bit about the admission process to study Medicine and Surgery in UI this year.

I would want you to understand that UI might be very competitive and their admission process in Nigeria is usually the most standardized and transparent. On average, UI only accept 6.67% of the total number of people that apply. That's crazy right 😂. Without wasting time let's dive into today's content.

First and foremost, make sure you have at least a credit in your five core subject in your O'Level results which can either be Waec/Neco (GCE) only. Without this, there isn't any admission for you.

The second is that, you have to score very high in your JAMB exam: Scoring high in your JAMB exam would help boost your aggregate. Note that UI don't sum up O'Level results for their aggregate. So that means they only use Jamb and PUME for their aggregate which is 50:50 i.e, your JAMB results divided by 8 and your PUME results divided by 2. This means your aggregate would be the sum of the two over 100. 

For you to be guaranteed of admission to study Medicine, you have to have at least 37.5 marks over 50 from your JAMB (300+ in your JAMB) anything else from that would make your chances extremely slim.

Next, continue studying: So after your O'Level exam and your JAMB exam you still have to continue studying. This is very important as this would help you prepare for your Post UTME exam. I mean knowing what is ahead it is better to keep on studying and learn from your JAMB your weak point and work on them as you would be repeating the same subject combination for your PUME rather than laxing and relying on your JAMB score.

The next step now is to get the Post UTME form (this can be gotten online or physically at the university. Click here to visit the school's website) and continue preparing. At this time you want to intensify your reading. Also, keep on checking the school's website for updates and information concerning the exam and admission process.

 Another important thing to take note of is that you must be at least 16 years of age as the date of your admission if not it would be cancelled so pls take note of that. Plus you have to have at least 200 marks  in your JAMB exam and at least 50 mark in your PUME exam before you can even be considered for admission.

Finally, Believe in your self: I think this is something everyone is guilty of. If you're sure you want to gain admission one requirement you need to have is faith in your self. If you're not sure you can do it, then you'll not be able but when your desire is mixed with definiteness of purpose and persistence, you're sure to translate your thoughts into reality.

On this note, I going to stop here. If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to tell in the comment section. Pls make sure you like this blog and share to your family and friends. Thank you for reading see you next time.
