Are there actual lectures at IUHS? or all Internet?

Can some one tell me if there are actual courses being taught at the school or is it all done on the internet? Are there any Docs out there from this school?

there are actual live lectures that are broadcast online. We meet three times per day with actual teachers from big universities.

Let me rephrase the question....

... Who conducts the broadcast lecutre on site? For what you said you meet 3 times per day to watch an online boardcast...nothing different from a podcast. Let me shoot the question straight and avoid any technicalities, ARE THERE any ACTUAL lectures, conducted ON SITE by professors ON SITE not via podcast or online boradcast?

A lot of states have made it a point to deny any student a license who completed ANY portion of their medical education through distance learning (online, casting, etc). Some state have went as far as denying ALL graduates of medical schools that even allow such classes.

I am into distance learning... I am just saying the boards aren't. Sorry to burst anyone's bubble.. but I am afraid it isn't looking good for distance learning with medicine anytime soon.

True

It is the sad reality for this kind of method. Eventually things might change, how soon or how far away in the future, we don't know but based on the current trend it looks that it will be more later than sooner.

Peace to all comrades

flaming however is against terms of use, as is publishing the proper names of individuals. for all those who need to, please re-read the terms of use you agreed to. thank you.

No one has posted any state that would accept students for license. I would sure consider it if I knew for sure there are states that would commit to accepting grads from this med school for license. Some have hinted around that "not all 50 states" won't license, but they wont tell which ones will. If there are states what is the big deal, post them!!! I'm not going to finish med school, do clincals, etc and not be able to practice.

Where's that dancing bananna?

Currently California is the only state who has stated a stance against IUHS and the majority of states are open to licensure for IUHS graduates! Note California's stance was against online education yet they are the only ones who allow Lawyers to use this mode of education! If you really want to know about IUHS then you should go directly to them and ask to attend one of their conferences to meet students currently enrolled. In reply to question of lectures. The lectures are all live streaming video from campus or instructors from other US Medical educational systems. The student can see both the instuctor live with the power points used for the lecture and they also have access through a chat window to ask the instructor questions during lectures and the Instructor answers them verbally through the live streaming video feed. These are not pod casts. I get more questions answered here than I ever got in crowded premed lectures!
