JMIND, IUHS has had a difficult past but it is now a far better program with new staff and they are working very hard to prove that they are a good program. I cannot tell you about the content because I am not their student but, every student I talked to tell me that they feel well prepared for USMLE and life as a doctor because it teaches not only medicine but also self-directed learning, which is very important when you get out into the real world to practice medicine. They also told me that the staff really cares about their students and gives them full support and help any time.

Keep in mind that they have more on-campus students and only very few distance students. Their 2 campuses in India are bound to produce top graduates who will no doubt ace USMLE and the rest of the exams if they choose to pursue a US residency (unlikely because there is now so much economic prosperity in their own country that many are not migrating overseas). Usually Indian students tend to be very hard working, studious and thorough. This will boost the reputation of IUHS eventually, no doubt.

Thank you very much for the reply. I agree that the presence in India will only help their reputation.

If you check the OUM website, you shall see that their first 2 graduates got into FP and IM residencies in FL and IL. You shall also see if you search that IUHS graduates are on the staff of residency programs. I personally found one in FP residency staff list. Do not mislead people with your own narrow views and interpretations without any hard research.
I did look, that's why I asked to put up links. I'm was not familiar with OUM, thanks for mentioning that source of information.

I'm sorry my narrow views after working at various hospitals in Texas, Illinois, and New York has never led me to meet a student, resident, or an attending from IUHS, but congrats to those who did make it.
