Hi Sneha,

Can you please guide me as to how to approach for an observership at Camden. I heard they are giving observerships officially in all depts, but I do not know how to approach. Please let me know how you got an opportunity there.

Thanks.

@ferrari2011 and aarjee: I dont think an application delay by 2 days is the end of the world, just sit tight and you should hopefully be getting invites soon.

Thanks vj6..
Tats sort of reassuring..

I'm worried reg my Yog though..
Does prior peds residency in home country help anyway if at all in getting iv??
And can anyone tell me if getting into a research can help now??
