what do people think of MUSC? good rep? good vibes? no one ranked them in tally.....

#30082025–2026 DermFeb 21

heard it was toxic> it's not that bad, they get a lot of opportunities to travel and attend conferences, Charleston is a nice place to live albeit expensive, and they see a lot of interesting patients since SC is lacking derm programs
