Pitfalls to avoidPrerequisites:
◦Notify faculty “X” weeks before◦“Successful completion of ……”◦Not checking these things and
following through may cause you last minute changes
![Page 8: YEAR FOUR ORIENTATION AY2014-2015 WELCOME Class of 2015.](https://reader037.fdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022110304/5517777d5503463e368b4e9a/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Pitfalls to avoid
Communicate! If you need time off of an elective, discuss with faculty far in advance, come with a plan to make it up.
![Page 9: YEAR FOUR ORIENTATION AY2014-2015 WELCOME Class of 2015.](https://reader037.fdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022110304/5517777d5503463e368b4e9a/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Pitfalls To Avoid
Retake elective only with permission and no waiting list
Graduation Requirements
Evaluations: no credit until done
To take SCCX during a >2 week elective, faculty MUST CONSENT IN WRITING.
YOUR RESPONSIBILITY!
![Page 10: YEAR FOUR ORIENTATION AY2014-2015 WELCOME Class of 2015.](https://reader037.fdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022110304/5517777d5503463e368b4e9a/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
PITFALLS!
Satisfactory with decreased weeks of credit
Incomplete (must be completed before April—or converts to Unsatisfactory)
Unsatisfactory-stays on transcript and triggers review by most medical licensing boards (ie. delays licensure for residency and practice each time you apply!)
