Dear Prospective (and new) OUM students!
I have heard through the grapevine that this blog may have helped a few of you decide to study at OUM! That's great!
OUM has a program in place where if a student recommends/refers a new student to OUM and then that new student goes on to study for more than 3 modules at OUM, the old student can get a reduction on their tuition fees.
If this blog has been your "referral" to OUM, then I would appreciate it if you would put my name forward. This is, of course, only if yo feel it is fair to do so. If you would like to inbox me, then as I have said from the start, please feel free to leave me a comment with your email address and I will email you quite promptly. I always do. And I wont publish your comment if it is obviously intended only for me. Other students helped me in the beginning to get the low-down on what's the go with this school.
From the start of this blog I have been very honest and frank about my studies (and other aspects of my life). I have tried to keep this blog anonymous in an attempt to be able to speak freely from my heart. This has also enabled me to comment on the pros and cons of studying at OUM. I just wanted you to know I am not getting any sort of kick-backs from OUM for this blog or anything absurd like that!
I have been engrossed in other endeavours as late and have been unable to maintain this blog. When I go back from my LoA, you never know, I might need a special place to vent again!
In case you were wondering what I'm up to atm, I have been focusing on my health and fitness, but also revising what I have studied thus far at OUM. Today I didn't feel like reading my notes or the textbooks so I watched Dr Najeeb lectures. I've dedicated a calendar month to each module. MArch is biochem month. It's the 25th and I haven't even covered a quarter of what I wanted to. I'm finding it difficult to balance to focus on my own health and my studies at this stage. I hope to resolve this dilemma before I return!
Anyway, good luck to you all out there, med students or wannabes, or whatever you are up to.
Edit: 19 Aug 2013: I've been informed that this blog does not consitute a referal and if you get to OUM via me and my blog and decide to go there because of what I have told you here, then this does not count at all and I'm not eligible for any kind of tuition reduction for doing so. I think that sucks, but that's the way it is. I obviously don't write this blog for any sort of kick-back and I will keep writing it when I can be bothered and be as honest as possible as always. Good luck!

Hello, I would really appriciate if you give me some honest reply. I would like to apply to OUM, would you give me your opinion? or should i apply to IUHS?

ReplyDeleteOkay, let's try this again.
ReplyDeleteI have enjoyed reading your blog and have a couple of OUM questions.
What made you choose OUM? Would you do it all over again, now that you've been in school approximately 3 years? (Med school as well as OUM)
Thank you and good luck!

Hello! Sorry I haven't replied! This blog is mostly non-maintained atm....
ReplyDeleteOk, so I WOULD do it all over again. The reasons that made me go to OUM still hold fast for me today. Money, time, and not being afraid of the path less travelled.
I would go to IUHS too. To me, I see them as being similar. I'd probably go to IUHS as it's cheaper, but I'm glad I'm at OUM as there are a lot of Australian students there.
Hope this helps... Feel free to ask me some more specific questions.

Hi CJ I guess too late for you to profit from reduced fees now but... thank you for sharing your story. You are truly an inspiration!
