Graduate Testimonials
OUM offers more freedom in balancing work and study
If it wasn’t for OUM, I wouldn’t have been able to start medical school when I did. OUM gives you the opportunity to become a doctor and practice in your home country. It offers more freedom in balancing work and study, but it’s not a shortcut. You still have to study just as hard, and I don’t think it’s easier than traditional in-person medical school. It has its own unique advantages and challenges.
Organize an individualized study schedule that works best for you!
I am definitely enjoying my OUM journey. I love that you can organize an individualized study schedule that works best for you. This helps a lot when you have a family to take care of. I am currently really enjoying my clinical rotations. I am a kinesthetic learner, so I learn best when I am able to assess patients hands on.
