One effective UMAT preparation technique is to utilise internet forums. Talk-UMAT forums are simple, accessible ways of connecting with other students preparing for the UMAT. Forums give students the freedom to talk about any aspect of the UMAT. Students can discuss tricky questions, share problems, help eachother and provide advice, support and motivation for students in the same situation as them. Students literally can – talk UMAT.
Ensure that when you are joining talk-UMAT forums that you choose quality forums. Some forums like the ‘Talk UMAT’ forum on Yahoo are submitted anonymously by cons. They trick people into thinking that it is an independent forum. It is not independent and is used as advertising and marketing tool to mislead and trap unsuspecting students/parents. One of their sole purposes is to criticize and defame other quality UMAT courses whilst lavishly praising their own company. They use numerous ‘made-up’ e-mail addresses to post on their own forums to make the forums appear popular and compliment their products.
Quality UMAT preparation Courses run throughout Australia and New Zealand will provide students with access to a private Talk-UMAT forum as part of their packages or services. By utilising the forums provided by your UMAT Preparation Organisation you can ensure that they are legitimate UMAT forums and that the information being exchanged is reliable. UMAT Learning Forums are an example of a UMAT Preparation organisation’s quality Talk-UMAT forums
