My question nw is why will anyone regret ever studying abroad, is it even possible? Pls someone should explain.

Well you'd be surprised. I studied in the UK and I quite regret it. When my mates where crossing to Canada for PG, I took the UK route... turned out to be one of the worst decisions I ever took because when I finished my program, I received an email expressly instructing me to return to my country sad

My classmates in the West by the second year of their stay had already been absolved into different organizations. I'm talking about 2012.

Today, all of them are Canadian citizens. The UK just recently upturned that ridiculous policy and now give extra 2 years visa after you finish your program to encourage more foreign students to come there as they where loosing their prospects to Canada.

What's your current status? Are you in Maroc already? If yes, have you been offered the medicine/pharmacy already? If yes, I could link you up with Nigerian graduates of either course to help you out . If No, your chances of being offered Medicine/Pharmacy is very slim, you could be offered an alternative course instead like BCG or SVT, you could still be lucky though. It's fun when your language of instruction is in French.

If you are still in Nigeria and have not moved to Maroc, find a University in an English speaking country instead. It's difficult to adapt a french degree equivalence to Nigeria degrees. Heck, Nigerians hardly understand their own degrees. (The HND vs BSC dichotomy is an example)The French degree scale is 1 to 20, not 2:2, 2:1 or 1st class, good luck finding a Nigerian human resource personnel with the patience to understand that.

I attended Manchester primary school in uk, attended boys high school Houston in united states and graduated from Harvard in United states with a first class in Engineering, but with all these I am a teacher in God's saviour secondary school in Oshodi. So in all what is my gain? This world is wicked.

This is why I advise any Nigerian never to consider UK for study except his papa don reserve a space for him for NNPC, FIRS or CBN.

No way u can generalise this. Everybody has his own story, experience, and circumstances. Yours will be unique too
