Wow. Look at the attached ACGME survey. Resident satisfaction: 17% very negative, 17% negative, 35% neutral, 26% positive, 4% very positive.

Okay, this is completely fucked up also because this means the residents lied to my face. I got weird vibes from them anyways, but they flat out said things were improving and that they were "very happy" with their training. This anonymous survey says exactly the opposite-- they are generally "neutral" or unhappy .... and the scores overall have been downtrending in the last 3 years.... this is the biggest red flag there could be. Fuck them.

I don't think you can expect residents to flat out rip their program on interview day, it really serves no purpose to the program and will probably get the resident in trouble. Just serves to take the interview day with a huge grain of salt because it's one day and residents are usually on their best behavior.

<-- I was considering ranking Michigan highly, but this is making me second guess the impression I got on interview day.

Great, Michigan 30% of residents positive or above positive and fewer than 50% feel they can raise concerns without fear. Yet when I flat out asked multiple residents at the pre-interview dinner they made it seem like everything was hunkey-dorey.

So... I talked candidly with one of the residents in private, and he/she told me that the same problems were still ongoing. https://forums.studentdoctor.net/threads/malignancy-at-michigan-dermatology.1296049/ Are ACGME survey results for all programs open to the public, or each available only for residents/faculty within a program?

yeah why cant we see these results for every program? would really help us make decisions....

This has been deleted several times, can you guys please stop spreading false info? I rotated at Michigan, and the residents were very happy there. I am not sure these survey results are authentic.

Michigan internal here, just wanted to add my 2 cents. This is a really wonderful program and I don't know what to make of the results above. From what I have seen, the residents are happy to be here and have a pretty healthy work-life balance.

Sorry but many of us feel differnetly as shown by the survey results. im not happy to be here. those who speak out or suggest improvements for the program experience retaliation.
