for people who got a BU invite did you actually do the supplemental essay and do you want to stay on for the 3 years of being an attending

I did the essay x3; I want to do 80-20 research, so it's appealing. I'm a little concerned about the rumors about the department culture though. x3

i rotated at BU and there are a lot of misconceptions about the department. In particular many of the previous posts regarding BU were related to a Professor who is no longer affiliated with the department. The Chair and the associate PD are awesome and incredibly supportive. My main reason for contributing to this posts is because I think the residents are awesome and I don't think the programs name should be tarnished b/c of one individual who has since left BU. Happy to address any concerns based on my experience. Posting anonymously b/c there were very few rotators overall at this program - we were sent a survey at the end and could see who else rotated there.

Nice try. http://www.bumc.bu.edu/derm/vincent-falanga-md-facp/

i don't think their website is up to date. I asked a resident if he's still there and they said "no". I also never saw him at grand rounds or in clinic so if he is around then his involvement in training is minimal.

This program offers outstanding training for a future in academic dermatology while providing our residents with a nationally competitive salary and benefits that include a comprehensive health insurance plan.

What exactly did this guy do? https://forums.studentdoctor.net/threads/boston-university-and-the-6-year-program.1125973/

Why not go interview and form your own opinions of the program rather than continuing with this nonsense

<--- Amen.

BU secondary apps were real long. Guess all that went to waste

I don't think so. Personally i feel my secondary got me the interview
