Harbor-UCLA Med Ctr-CA

was talking to a mentor about the whole harbor ucla debacle "you applied there??? wow people really are applying booooarrrdddlllyyyy huh?" 🥲 < lmao they are so out of touch < Was your mentor surprised that you applied to Harbor-UCLA's derm program? < lol yes < LOL! I mean it's Derm. I understand not applying to places like Harvard Derm or NYU Derm if you're scrimping or being judicious on ERAS fees, but Harbor-UCLA you apply to, as you want to apply as broadly as you can. < that is how i saw it too but she thought that was a bit too broad LOL < Great exposure and lots of autonomy < Isn't that what all Derm programs say to sell their program? < But it's actually true. LA county is the most diverse in the country. Harbor-UCLA is where people who are underserved and underinsured go for care, especially if they are in the South Bay/ Long Beach area or west of the 405. Lots of SOC. Tons of excisions and biopsies. < Their graduates seem to for the most part go into private practice w/o subspecializing further: https://www.harbor-ucla.org/dermatology/recent-alumni-list/ < A rationale is that after you had an extensive training during residency, you do not need to pursue fellowship < You do if you want to do Mohs or Dermpath < that's complete bullshit. if the program is really that great you don't need a fellowship

ignorant east coaster here but whats the difference between UCLA and Harbor UCLA? // Harbor-UCLA Medical Center is affiliated with UCLA but operates independently from the David Geffen School of Medicine. The County of Los Angeles owns and operates Harbor-UCLA, and most residents and faculty are employees of the county. < Which is better? < Definitely UCLA that is with the UCLA med school. With Harbor-UCLA, it's a "Derm is Derm" program if you match there as well getting to stay in California. < ouch 😂😂😅

why do both ucla and harbor ucla have warnings.... < are the 2 programs related?< One is county, the other is not (UCLA). < is UCLA also losing a spot? looks like only 3 on NRMP? < where is this on nrmp website? < program directory << They have 3 regular and 2 (2) spots . Screen cap to the right<is that always how it works?

this harbor ucla email though 🥲< spill < didn't interview there but i'm so curious why they decided to share but not give any details...? < also isn't rush also on probation but still taking 2? so harbor's issue might be serious?

which would you rank higher? harbor ucla derm vs mgh cat internal medicine lol < how is this even a question lol, worst derm resi >>> best IM resi

does anyone know of the harbor ucla release date? is it the same as ucla usually?

Re: Harbor UCLA, for those who got an II can you confirm if one of the dates to schedule on ERAS is still available? Or does everything say waitlist now? Just curious if they sent all their II's already or if people declined

Did Harbor-UCLA's prelim program send invites out yet? Can't find an answer on the prelim/TY spreadsheet nor here.

Did anyone receive any invites from Kaiser LA or Harbor UCLA?
