Most Students have overwhelmingly selected the courses offered by Kenya Medical Training College (KMTC), the country’s main health training institution. Due to their high rate of employment, health degrees are undoubtedly among the most marketable in Kenya.
One of the factors preventing students from enrolling in KMTC’s bankable courses is the college’s minimum prerequisites. In this essay, I’ll show you how these prerequisites should not be a barrier to you pursuing your dream job.
The truth is that none of Kenya Medical Training College’s campuses provide bridging courses to help students improve their marks in disciplines where they did not exceed the acceptable threshold. The college, on the other hand, accepts KCSE bridging credentials.
It’s vital to remember that a bridging course is a brief course that students take in order to retake a topic they failed in their KCSE exams. The end goal is to raise your GPA and achieve the minimum college entrance requirements for the course you want to take.
The bridging courses provide students a second chance to re-learn subjects, retake exams, and eventually gain admission to a higher education school.
In Kenya, bridging courses have varying criteria and take varied amounts of time to finish. Mathematics, physics, biology, chemistry, and English are the most popular programs. Several students have benefited from this because poor high school grades do not rule out the possibility of pursuing a college education.
Just on average a bridging course take a duration of six months, and students can study full-time, part-time, or during weekends.
