I would absolutely love to do a final year elective in London, and it seems possible through GKT...yay! I'm wondering if anyone could help me out with some questions...
1) I'm relieved not to have missed the deadline (April 1 2005) but does anyone know if it's first come first served UP to that date? Or do they determine all spots after the deadline? I can inquire by email of course, but figured I might as well ask here.
2) What are the hospitals (Guy's, King's College, St. Thomas and Lewisham) like? I believe they're all in central London...would any be preferable over the other? What are the areas (good/bad etc...though I don't know if there *are* bad areas in the city) and patient populations like?
3) Any suggestions for which department to request? I really have no idea what to pick!
4) And very important...how can I make this affordable? Would I be able to find housing (just a room) within 600 pounds for the month?
Thanks in advance for any input!
