Not sure if it's just me

Luscious, thanks for the replies

So if you can't directly transfer then how do you change specialty?

Would I have to do 2 years core medicine, then another 2 years core paeds?

TBH i wouldn't mind this too much as i'd love to gain loads of experience and progressing quickly up the ladder isn't much of an issue when you graduate at 22, for me anyway.

Would i even be allowed to do 2 lots of core training?

Of course you would, they are two completely different specialties! You wouldnt be able to say I finished CT2 in medicine therefore I want to be an ST3 in paeds with no paeds experience, in the same way you couldnt go from medicine to surgery or surgery to psychiatry without starting again!
