Sentiment score: 2.8 / 10
Applicants report that George Washington University sent out a high volume of rejections (30+ rejections mentioned) despite having only 2 dermatology spots available, with 561 applications for 2 positions. Those who received interviews noted a single interview day on 12/2 with 31 interview slots. The program appears to have limited geographic preference for away rotators and is perceived as tier 4/5, with some applicants expressing frustration about the rejection volume relative to available positions.

med-derm vs derm?
Are you interested in also being a hospitalist in conjunction to a dermatologist? Do you like the IM residency as much as derm? You don't need med-derm training to specialize in complex med-derm in the future (although certainly wouldn't hurt) but it's the most efficient way to do both hospitalist medicine and derm if that's your jam.

also seems like it can push your career forward quickly. Small but very strong network> true, definitely makes you more marketable

what about northwestern regular Derm/peds derm> NW med derm counts for advanced derm NW position + med derm position. NOT prelim. You can ask to be considered for categorical IM, but that was not guaranteed by just applying.

Exact wording: "We are very excited to welcome you to the Northwestern University combined Medicine-Dermatology interviews, which also serves as interviews for either the categorical Medicine and/or advanced Dermatology tracks, if you have applied to either of those Northwestern programs. "

Does anyone know if there is a list of prelims / TYs that automatically consider you for their institution's prelim/TY or their derm interview counts as the prelim/TY interview? Sitting at one TY and one prelim but a few derms and want to know if I should go into ERAS and add them or if I should worry more :P
