Changing electives at U of T within specialty


Recommended Posts

Hey folks,

 

Has anyone had any luck requesting a different preceptor or a different hospital for electives at U of T?

Do they take kindly to people requesting different placements, or is it final once it's assigned?

 

Thanks!

I was told I should have specified which area of psychiatry I preferred on the application form (even though there's nowhere to specify it) or by email. Either way, would've been nice to have had some of this information before submitting the application...
