Surgical electives ?

Thread Starter Surgical electives ? Follow 3 hours ago 3h ago I'm a 2nd year med student at Exeter, going into my 3rd year. I'm interested in applying for a surgical elective either here or abroad for my final year. I was wondering if I should do anything at this moment to increase my chances of getting into a program? My grades in first year weren't exactly great but I have improved this year, and I'm planning on doing an audit during the summers. Apart from this, I haven't got a lot in my CV apart from a surgical SSC and attending 2 surgical conferences. I would love to get more info on where and when I should apply with a realistic chance of getting in. Thanks!
