Sierra Leoneans in the country has raised serious concerns over the massive failure of the recent results published from the College of Medicine and Allied Health Sciences (COMAHS), claiming that the institution’s administration is failing students at an alarming rate.
Citizens whose names were withheld described the situation as “heart-rendering,” shedding light on the challenging academic environment many students are currently facing.
According to the reported statistics for Premed 2, only 57 students managed to pass, while 28 were referred, and 30 were slated to repeat the year. Shockingly, 259 students were withdrawn from the program, with 33 students recorded as absent. The statistics also indicated a significant number of students who were unable to continue their studies Premed 1 results paint an equally grim picture. Out of the cohort, 157 students passed, but an astounding 607 students were withdrawn. Additionally, 47 students were marked as absent, adding to the dismal situation.
The magnitude of the failure rate has sparked widespread concern among stakeholders, with many calling for an investigation into the root causes of the academic challenges faced by students.
The withdrawal of such significant portion of the student body raises questions about the institution’s academic standards, support systems and examination processes.
The concerned citizen emphasized that the current state of affairs not only jeopardizes the future of the students but also casts a shadow over the institution’s reputation. They have called on relevant authorities and educational bodies to intervene, urging reforms that would address the challenges and improve the academic success rates of students at COMAHS.
Let the students try to study very hard to their examinations. No magic about it. Mind you, they are trained to play with our lives. No joke about it.
We don’t need any quark doctors again let them maintain standards
One key solution is that, the lecturers at the COMAHS should be giving out students marking script along with their transcript. Inorder to prove confidentiality and truthfulness.
As the saying goes “Show me, don’t tell me”
Many reasons is behind it.
You guys should try and get in touch with some of the students.
The so called concerned citizens don’t mean any good for the country they called their home. If they are grumbling as a result of high failure at COMAHS or medical students who aren’t up to their tasks.
They have all rights to fail because they were not supplied with the direct answers nor do they allow them to use their phones during or does their normal exam malpractices.
Let COMAHS continue their good work in ensuring we have best fit medical practioners
Such fail never happen in the history of comahs.
There was no interview for students last year
Results were not properly screen
Really frostraighting, the Government has to do something for the poor parents
Bravo to the administrative of COMAHS
We need to have qualify Doctors in the country
Is a surprise to some of use congratulations to the let the students go back to the drawing board back. But hope is a clear discussion not about political reasons.
As an experience man, what most lecture do in comahs, they will lecture you simple addition and in exam they bring standard quadratic equation questions from the Internet.

Lectures should try as best as possible to improve on their methods of lecturing.
