Challengin and yet exciting UY1

Studying medicine at UYI is quite challenging due to the lack of necessities needed for practice. Medicine requires you to constantly practice what you learn theoretically but this aspect here is a bit compromised. All the same, they have amazing teachers, one of the best in Africa, and a magnificent environment conducive to studies. I would recommend a hard-working student to enrol here but if not hardworking I don't recommend UY1 for you
