What traits do urology programs value in elective students?
Canadian urology programs prioritize professionalism, initiative, and reliability during electives. In contrast, scholarly and advocacy competencies are viewed as less critical, possibly due to the short duration and clinical focus of electives. Our findings can guide students and programs in aligning expectations during urology electives.
