Fame & Shame
2025–2026 Derm
3 entries❌1. Honestly so hit or miss with the faculty. Some are incredibly kind and some are so bizarre. During the interview, one of the Mohs surgeons just went on bizarre tangents, asked random unrelated questions, and I heard she did this to others too (someone said she made them sing on the spot during the interview??). One of the other interviewers just straight up NRMP violationed and asked me explicitly where I did my aways, if I was considering my hometown/undergrad institution for residency and if I applied there, which was super awkward to navigate. PD seems nice but also a little awkward. Tons of faculty turnover the last few years.
❌2. Program is in a rebuild phase, having lost many faculty and mostly newer faculty.
💬1. Makes sense that chasing prestige means you have socially inept or egotistic folks, who can get away with poor behavior because of entitlement and name brand. It's our job to avoid paying it forward and chase out toxicity+1 > Lol Hopkins as a derm dpt doesnt live up to its undergrad/med school rep. They've also lost some of their top tier faculty and are sorta in a rebuild phase. Anyone chasing Hopkins for the undergrad rep is kinda hilarious

Why is Hopkins derm program relatively less stronger than their peer institutes like Harvard, UCSF, Penn? Never really understood why this is the case
Hopkins derm is fine and great education - splitting hairs at this point tbh.

Rankings are basically equivalent to research funding amounts so they probably have less derm research relative to the others

This spreadsheet skews to a lower number of interviews I believe. The internals at my program are at an avg of 8 IIs each
school tier?

I feel like that's not particularly true; at a T10 and advisors have said 5-6 seems like the average
Feb 21

at a T50 (if that's even a thing lol), and the avg among internals also seems higher (8-10 range)

this is why we need everyone to fill out the II chart tab!!

me thinking id get an interview here with a silver and no away is hilarious at this point + 4> but why is that shame? We all know you're not guaranteed an interview just because you rotated and signaled

are we surprised that JHU doesn't care if you do an away or not
Feb 21
0
I'm not going to defend Hopkins too hard, but they did have ~15 internal candidates this year. Given that, a fair number of away rotators, and 8 slots, I guess it isn't surprising that not everyone that did an away got an II. That being said BOOOOOO!!!!
Feb 21
0
if you were expecting an II, double check your spam!! I'm an internal applicant and the invite went to my spam which sent me into a panic for a few hours before I realized, hopefully if anyone else had the same thing happen they can find it in their spam

< what if you're a DO that's heavy on research? Consnsus is MD programs like more research. DO programs like higher scores/academics. < then im cooked < CWRC/UH hospitals is DO friendly and research heavy
