Fame & Shame

2025–2026 Derm

2 entries

1. Very fucking weird vibes while rotating there. Attendings are nice to your face, harsh behind your back. Residents (including chiefs) are talking shit about certain nurses. Everyone can be super cold (esp some of the nurses? idk maybe just a NYC thing). Residents ask you to do little personal errands not related to patient care.

💬1. Might be a NYC thing with the nurses; they've been on strike in the past few months and tensions been building up. Frequent discussions on r/residency about the dynamic between NYC nurses and residents. > personal errands sounds like some bullshit > a friend who did an away there told me he was asked to help with picking up a resident's child lol > that's the stupidest thing I've ever heard respectfully a crazy thing to ask a med student

Could anyone explain why some programs seem to have high number of residents go on to do Mohs? Is it because there is strong surgical exposure or that they have a good track record of matching residents or what? E.g. NYU

Question: these 1-spot tracks like Stanford peds derm (for example).. do they already know who they want for the spot ahead of time but interview as a formality? The last person who matched stanford peds derm was literally a stanford peds derm research fellow. Do we even have a chance??

#15122025–2026 DermFeb 21

nyu filled theirs so they're not interviewing this year. I think you have a chance if you have an interview :)

Did anyone who applied to NYU ever fill out a supplemental application? If so, where did you find it or were you sent one? I saw it on the website earlier on in the season that it's highly encouraged, but never got sent anything and I didn't see anything on ERAS.

#14712025–2026 DermFeb 21

i didnt get anything either, did anybody else?> I thought they meant the ERAS supplemental app and that the website was just outdated, am I wrong?

what's the ERAS supplemental app….. how is that different from our regular ERAS app

Feb 21

The ERAS supplement is what they called the "Most Meaningful Experiences" (and geo preferences) 2 years ago aka it's an outdated term

Just an FYI for future med students / premeds - NYU, Stony Brook, and Wayne State have early assurance derm residency for their med students that you apply to when you're applying to med school. If you get into the early assurance residency, med school bceomes accelerated and you can graduate in 3 yrs. (edit: NYU is now 3 yrs for all students)

#11462025–2026 DermFeb 21

NYU med school is now 3 years for all students with an optional fourth year for research. Maybe you should take an optional year of research to make sure your claims have some basis before you just start saying random incorrect nonsense

Feb 21

I'm sorry, I forgot that they went to a 3yr MD for all students! But the rest of my info still stands, including 3yr MD for Stony Brook early assurance derm. I don't understand where the vitriol is coming from? Just tryna keep everyone in the know.

Ok, and you corrected me, thank you? But maybe admit yourself into an anger management program. you're going to be a doctor ffs learn to communicate your ideas without being mean

I don't think so, derm isn't listed as an accelerated residency on their website: https://med.miami.edu/medical-education/medical-programs/accelerated-pathway/participating-specialties-programs

> wait, so if i am not a Stony Brook student but applied to their Derm program, i won't be looked at because of their own students in their "early derm assurance residency"? or is this a new program that just started?

Feb 21

no, stony brook reserves a derm spot for a med student starting their matriculation into medical school (they basically get a seat reserved for them before they even step foot into medical school). The other derm spots are open for anyone who applies during the regular ERAS cycle

Feb 21
0

gotcha

Feb 21
0

pretty sure historically every school has 1 spot for their own students, or MD-PHD or both. the rest of the majority tends to go to away rotators or ppl with very strong ties who interviewed well otherwise

Feb 21
0

I don't think most schools guarantee a spot for a med student who is M0 and hasn't even done med school yet. Only NYU, Stony Brook, Wayne State do this as far as I know. Most med schools do however make sure they take at least 1 home student during the regular ERAS cycle.

Anyone else see that the BU prelim is reserved for neuro/ophtho applicants? It's on their website. I only found that out just now

anyone else frustrated that NYU seems to have yet again not interviewed any derm applicants? per last years sheet they didnt extend any interviews to external prelim applicants, learned this after i wasted a gold signal there. wish they woulda dvertise that they reserve spots for their home students only

my theory is someone goofed and sent a copied email from last year (Oct 18 2024 was a Friday) because there is no logical reason they would send a Saturday invite

Does ayone know the specifics of what makes NYU a 'workhorse' program? are the hours longer than usual? do residents see more patients per day? less academic time? I'm trying to understand the specifics lol >and for UCSF

#6892025–2026 DermFeb 21

specifically for UCSF, it's just that the volume is high so you're often leaving clinic around 5:30/6. Academic time is good (1-2 half days a week) and support is there. It's just the patients you're seeing are complicated and there are a lot of them

From the cornell info session, it seems like they only take people who do away rotators there, is this true?

#5922025–2026 DermFeb 21

my resident friend there said historically it's away rotators or home students/other ppl from Manhattan med schools

what about harvard?

Feb 21

i got interviews at nyu, columbia, cornell with no nyc connections and no away and being from far away, did not get mt sinai. harvard does not take into account whether you did an away or not in their interview invites; i interviewed there as well

Feb 21

ya i was told not to really bother applying if I didn't do an away because all the interviews are pretty much given to home/away students

it is easy to tell you schools who dont interview openly (UTMB, UT san antonio), please feel free to add the list.>
