how many people got RTM calls?
nobody
what about USC and UCSD??
Harvard does not do RTM calls they are very strict about comms with applicants and try to be fair to everyone across the board
good to know we love to see it
what are thoughts on the Harvard post-doc/MD fellowships?
who is the PI? Harvard almost never matches its own fellows
there is multiple but Dr. Daniela Kroshinsky and Drs. Kimball/Porter I think
kroshinsky is no longer at harvard
What is the general consensus on the derm research fellow positions at Massachusetts General Hospital?
they're oversaturated and no one really matches at Harvard
]
I hope RYs fall out of favor. I think derm is going to get saturated with a lot of nonsense articles
agreed, RY helped a lot of weak applicants match this year. There should be less weight on it
Easier said for people with a derm home program
agree with the previous poster that the field is getting totally saturated with dumb papers and it's going to make it harder to wade through to find the research that matters and it's so financially irresponsible not to mention wasteful of resources and people's time and energy. we also need to stop publishing case reports/series of low value. Most of the time these things are not adding value, every now and then you have a case that really stands out and warrants it. We need to stop presenting poorly done or low sample size research at conferences and having people spend so much money to attend conferences to showcase a poster that costs resources and money to print and transport. Bad for the environment and such nonsense. Normalize virtual conferences and stop flying around for these dumb reasons. If you're an attending or resident reading, stop writing off your vacation as a conference you take your family to, think about what you're doing and get a life to find meaningful ways to connect with people and make friends outside of conferences
THEY ARE FALLING OUT OF FAVOR. Normalize attending information sessions/actually doing your research on programs. some of yall literally just choose not to stay up to date
Shouting doesn't make it true. They aren't falliing out of favor, whether that suits your wishes or not. And maybe consider taking some time off from this spreadsheet and repeating the same thing day after day.
No way 30/42 of the harvard people filled the rank tally out
Anyone know why Harvard didn't match a mohs fellow in all three of their programs?
Harvard is my #1, wonder if the 23 responses are real cause that is roughly half of the number interviewed!!
Wow so many ranked Yale highly while not many ranked Harvard high as of yet…is lifestyle the main factor or?
Love seeing that people ranked programs I didn't interview at as #1-3. Hell yeah folks hope yall match at Yale and Harvard so I can have my mid-tier program <3 congratulations and good luck to everyone
MSKCC TY vs. Yale IM vs. MGH IM?
Is it possible to get a full categroical IM position after prelim? Thinking about ranking some prestigious but hard af prelims -> yes! more likely at large prestigious programs actually, but it depends, i would look to see if there is precedence. for example the harvard-affiliated programs have historically had a person do this every few years
Anyone know if mohs fellowship programs will care if you did your intern year at MGH versus a local small program??
is harvard QOL that bad?
Didnt MGH prelim say there are no caps on research elective? So technically your 3.5 months of elective could be spent at home doing reserach?
Please talk to out of being delulu and doing an MGH prelim as opposed to a super easy TY. All my derm programs are well-ranked academic programs. The prelim will not matter in the future right??
Brigham Prelim vs. MGH Prelim? Thoughts?
Some posts are shown because their comments mention this program.
How many people got calls from UCSF?
