so NYMC is interviewing 70+ people for 2 spots? that seems excessive < isnt it 3 spots? < it's 2< from what I asked PC, they are intervewing 60 people for 2 spots. < is it me or is this a red flag? < people have said there are some red flag about the program but honestly it seems pretty chill < it is just not a eye candy among many NYC programs. Very distanced training sites and limited support. Residents have to strive to get things done. In other words, you need to be really self-reliant < And also they are well known for taking PGY-1 predominantly < hm ok well then i guess as an m4 i dont have a good chance anyway < not necessarily if you really like them then rank them high. If not rank them low. There is nothing you can do to change how they select residents < they probably punch above their weight if they take PG1s if you think about it since there are tons of overqualified unmatched derm applicants who may feel like that is their best shot even though those said students may not have ranked them as M4s. kinda genius plan really
