Fame & Shame
2025–2026 Derm
3 entries❌1. almost pointless to apply here if you aren't a research fellow or have a strong connection. nepotism is worth more than anything else here
❌2. I was offered an away in June and had to decline it because in their offer email they stated that because of the "number of attendings we would be rotating with" we should not expect letters of recommendation nor ask for them.
💬1. seriously, why would ANYONE waste a signal here if you didnt do a RY with the department? 90-100% of their spots go to their own fellows.

^...Sinai?
I would say UPMC, UCSD, UCLA, Emory, Columbia, Hopkins, OHSU, Wisconsin, Sinai are all candidates for top 10-20
In the interest of saving everyone money - MS4 - do not apply to NYMC as they are not allowed to accept 4th year medical students only interns and residents
New Mexico's and Buffalo's Derm program lost accreditation.
Sinai notoriously takes their own fellows.
But not as many fellows this year, and they have 8 spots.
<--- Yes, NYMC is outside of the match and they don't recruit from the MS-4 applicant pool
Anyone know which week in Jan the NYC programs will be coordinating for? (as they've done in prior years)
I looked at the calendar from last year and it didn't seem like all the NYC programs did
Looks like Sinai, Columbia, Cornell coordinated last year or just happened that way - end of Jan. NYU was earlier
So is the Mount Sinai PD really leaving, as the Away Rotation Impressions mention?
Not this year, but they are grooming one of their new faculty to take over.
This is a great thing for the program! Their current PD is.. different.
Care to elaborate?
He's an a**hole.
is he really that mean? i like his education website and used it a lot to study derm, and he seems nice form his YouTube videos....how is he mean?
He's not an assole, he is a nice person. He is just really really blunt and not at all PC.
Anyone heard from Lenox Hill prelim? Looks like they sent out invites pretty early last year, but haven't seen anything in the prelim/TY thread
I know someone who got an invite a while back, sorry amigo. Doesn't mean they're done though
Ah well, good to know anyway- thanks for the info! Where can I find the prelim/TY thread you are ref to?
Check the top of this spreadsheet, big yellow box. You can't miss it. LOL, thank you! I had not noticed it! :)
FWIW I'm a NYC applicant with 6 NYC prelim/TY invites so far... still haven't heard from Lenox Hill or MSK.
Have you heard from Beth Israel?
<<- A little too early for them based on prior years. Should be by the end of next week though.
thanks :).
BI Deaconess or Mount Sinai BI? I have heard from Sinai but not Deaconess.
** Newquestion- please answer:Does anyone else not see a NRMP program code under Icahn School of Medicine on Eras?
rotated at Mount Sinai and didn't receive interview x1
does anyone who rotated or did a fellowship at Sinai know how many people they're interviewing for the 10 spots? or can elaborate more on their bias/non-bias towards their fellows vs. external candidates
Mt. Sinai rejection x3
Does anyone know if Sinai has a dinner before?
Is there a dinner for the Icahn Mt Sinai interview this coming Thursday Jan 26th?
Can anyone actually give any truthful input about the number of reseach fellows at Mount Sinai and whether the spots are truely promised to them?
Some posts are shown because their comments mention this program.
This checks out, thanks. Any others?
