What are the top 5 programs for derm? Harvard, Penn, NYU, UCSF < Yea those programs seems to be the usual consensus < I feel like these are all overrated. < how can they be overrated if they are literally the best programs in the country< I think of these 4 NYU is probably the best and Harvard probably the weakest. x4 < Seems like NYU=UCSF>Penn>Harvard from the websites and what I've heard on the topical podcast but I don't think I will get interviews at any of these lmfao < which episode talks about program rankings?< OP here. There is no episode that has rankings. I was speaking to my own research looking at their curriculums and schedules. I brought up the Topical podcast because there is an episode that talks about the weaknesses at Harvard Combined which seemed to make the training a little weaker than the others mentioned, but what do I really know? < I think it comes down to geographic preferences and career goals between these programs. They all have their strengths and their weaknesses, but train amazing dermatologists.
