When you want to pursue a marketable course in Kenya, you should select a small university. For instance, if you plan to pursue Bachelor of Medicine, don’t choose the University of Nairobi because the competition is high. Select a small university outside Nairobi where most people don’t want to go—after all, once you graduate, you will compete favourably with those who graduated from UoN.
I have noticed that many people who selected marketable courses ended up pursuing useless courses in small university. Someone with A- selects Bachelor of Law at UoN, Bachelor of electrical Engineering at JKUAT but because the competition is high, the university selection council picks for him a small course in Karatina University. With that A- if he had selected a marketable course in a small university, he’d have been picked to pursue the program without any problem because there is little competition for the program in that university.
