MUST ONE PASS MATHS IN JAMB FOR PHARMACIST
Isaac Inegbenehi says
You don’t need Maths in Jamb… See subject combination for all courses here JAMB Subject Combinations for All Courses In Nigeria
[email protected] says
Must one be good in mathematics because he can apply for pharmacy.. i.e must he be a genius in maths.. if he has shallow knowledge in maths can he apply for it. If other factors are kept constant.
Isaac Inegbenehi says
You don’t need much of Mathematics to study Pharmacy dear
