this year I think was UCSF, case western, midwestern, UTMB, puerto rico, larkin, pcom georgia, temple, mcg, utah - half of those came out halfway through the cycle

Mar 17

The ones from the start of the cycle: Lark S Miami (not real, reserved for the unpaid research fellow), Case Western, Midwestern, DCC-Flint, UTMB, PR, PCOM, Georgia. Later ones that came out but from the grapevines they only interviewed people that had already signaled earlier in the cycle and/or were reserved for internal as there wasn't any mention of new reapplicants that hadn't originally signaled getting IIs: UCSF, Temple, MCG, NYMC, Wayne State, Utah

So as of 12/10, NYMC, Larkin, plus all the other programs listed above have STILL not sent out interview invites, correct? >> To my understanding, yes

#5602024-2025 DermMar 16

so is it worth applying for larkin for pgy2 spots if it is already predetermined? and what are the chances of IV if you couldnt rotate

#5162024-2025 DermMar 16

Anyone know who matched at larkin south miami?

#512024-2025 DermMar 16

dos anyone know someone who matched doing soap last year or previous years in dermatology? wondering if these programs are even looking at our apps < last year only Larkin SM was SOAP eligible and they're weird. Several years ago IU SOAPed almost all their class. But basically, if you haven't heard by now, programs probably aren't looking to fill through SOAP.

#232024-2025 DermMar 16

so is the worst community derm program better than MGH IM? I feel like ive heard of now at least 6 people the last few years who matched MGH IM but not derm < it's a workhorse program <but MGH literally stands for Man's Greatest Hospital. is Larkin derm really better than MGH?

#5592022-2023 DermMar 21

Anyone hear from UCLA or Larkin yet?

#39962021-2022 DermMar 21

Has anybody reached out to Larkin? Did they fill their spots?

#39462021-2022 DermMar 21

So the only 3 Derm spots in the soap are 2 at larkin and 1 at UCLA or was there more than that jc

#39442021-2022 DermMar 21

Is the Larkin spot only for people in their PGY-1 year?
