I have applied and received interview offers from all the Canadian programs in order to maximize my chances of obtaining a surgical oncology fellowship. As demonstrated by the fact that I spent 3 of my 6 months of elective time in Toronto, I hold your program in the highest regard and am very hopeful for the opportunity to train here. Throughout my experiences here, it quickly became clear to me that your program produces both clinical and academic leaders, which is something I hope to one day represent.
