Hi,
I agree with OMP, but want to add something that my PD said only last week. He indicated that audition electives are good only in limited circumstances (need to be in a particular location, for example), but that he recommended against them generally. His take was that you don't get a chance to really see the place or even learn your way around well enough to get a top letter, and so on.
I'm not sure that I agree with him, but thought I'd pass along his thoughts.

So you think that doing an elective at Will's is good for the experience itself? Even if I don't have a reasonable shot of being ranked there?
Another question I had was whether programs look at you differently from the away electives that you pursue. For example, would University of South Florida look at you negatively if you decided to do an away elective at Bascom instead of with them?
Thanks so much for the advice! Best wishes!
