✅1. Love love loved my away, standout culture for sure. Everyone was fun to be around and worked so well together.

💬1. The chair is very egotistical and cares about himself. Does not care about the improving the department.

did anyone here do an away at Brown? how do they prefer to be signaled from away rotators? a silver or a gold?>> i was told "signal how you would normally signal if you did not do an away" >> i was told that doing an away is showing a lot of interest already so like silver+away is sufficient to demonstrate

Curious what people think about whether derm is visa-friendly for applicants from US med schools? << It depends on the particular visa that you would need (H-1B, J-1, etc.), but as long as you're a graduate of an American medical school, preferably an allopathic medical school, you should be fine. I would check out different derm residency websites to see what their policy is as it's very much an individual program thing. I know places like Case Western Reserve's medical school take some Canadian students, so this question is more common than one might think. < Stanford matched an international med student from Brown this year, I would imagine there are a few others at other programs too!

J-1 visa is easier than H-1B but some programs offer H-1B too, I would email the program coordinators

Do we know which schools had several unmatched applicants? <stanford < how many? < Miami, around 7 or so from the 15 the applied<sad but thats like normal for miami. stanford is unusual. we started praying for umiami this cycle when we heard there were that many applying < whats the # matched for stanford??? < The spreadsheet would suggest at least 5 but who knows how many applied < what about Brown? at some point people were saying they had more applicants than usual < Brown matched 6/6 < great!< Brown only had 6? When I rotated, they said there were 10-11 < only 6 applied this cycle in the end. People ended up taking research years. < iheard stanford was 5/10 but im not sure?

umiami is a mid tier shcool with a good derm department, so that sucks.<a dept that has a tradition of not interviewing half their students thanos style, some who even match to better derm departments < harvard is the same < Miami is a strong middle tier medical school which just happens to have a top tier Derm program. Many Miami Miller students end up doing a research year there, but as huge as their class sizes are, 15 people from Miami matching into Derm would be very unusual.
