Penn State Hershey Med Ctr-PA

someone from penn state apparently

also one of their fellows

Penn State, Northwestern, Yale (kind of), Georgetown, Ohio State, Brown, Cleveland Clinic, UPMC, UTHSC (tennessee), Zucker/Northwell, Emory, Mizzou, WVU, Dartmouth

wait I didn't know about Northwestern, are we sure?

Exact wording: "We are very excited to welcome you to the Northwestern University combined Medicine-Dermatology interviews, which also serves as interviews for either the categorical Medicine and/or advanced Dermatology tracks, if you have applied to either of those Northwestern programs. "

northwestern med derm counts for prelim.

Penn state does??

yes Penn state does, presented to us on interview day

what about northwestern regular Derm/peds derm> NW med derm counts for advanced derm NW position + med derm position. NOT prelim. You can ask to be considered for categorical IM, but that was not guaranteed by just applying.

dm him and ask

yes, he said he did

I think he said yes but I could be wrong

I know a Derm influencer who scored >270 on step 2 she is a nice person >I know who you're talking about with the 232 step and don't be rude. like they are going out of their way to help you with advice and give back and instead of appreciating the fact that they're open about their score, you're trashtalking them? literally you stfu

imagine hating from outside the club….you can't even get in < love it young breezy> wtf which derm resident matched with a 232?!?!

nabeel

Penn State residency cares if you are a nice, hardworking person. another example of how board scores arent EVERYTHING

did he rotate there

idk

I'm having a hard time believing this is true. and if he got a 232 that would invalidate a lot of the advice he gives because clearly something else is going on to have caused him to match.

he has said he had a low step in his advice, he triple applied derm, peds, med peds bc of it

he also posted on reddit that he got into the 230s

im sitting on derm 5 IVs with 230s step 2 and haven't been asked once about it at any interview 😅 obviously dual applied, but step score isn't everything

What's with the rave about influencers? I went into medicine and derm bc I'm passionate about patient care, not because I want attention lol

> why do you all care so much? like live your life and let them live theirs

jelly bc theyre making bank (cringe or not money dont lie)>> I can also suck cock on OnlyFans and make more money. Some of us value self respect over $$$

comparing posting on tiktok to OF is SICK. SEEK HELP!

tell that to the PGY1s

divingdermdoc lol

Nabeel is actually a good one. He's helped a lot of students and shares great content IMO

i noticed that the three top influencers that i see on ig are going to penn state

he also has a low step

you are overrotated on step scores - they're not generally relevant to how good of a derm you become

sure, but only after you match. before you match, they're at least somewhat meaningful

if you're going to be online people will have opinions sooo

it's genuinely pathetic to spend any amount of mental effort/energy hating on others for no reason soooo

emory and Pitt, GW (if you applied to linked prelim-derm), henry ford, penn state

uconn, Henry Ford

oh so if you didn't get uconn prelim, does that mean you probably won't get derm?

Most of them interview rotators>emory>UF>tulane>Baylor Scott and White Temple

want to reiterate that it's getting harder to get these away rotations so you might not have a choice but check the schools that didnt II aways from this year and last year

Would add penn state and jefferson to this list but can't edit the cell for some reason

musc

thank you!

i believe wayne state also does

no> UNC reject email someone mentioned Penn State as well

no rejections, just getting ghosted by programs like they're a tinder date

yeah does the ghosting mean there's hope? is there a method to this like they come out in waves? idgi

the sheet keeps on freezing :(

UNC sent out rejections... >< + 6 (OUCH)

still appreciate they let us know tho lol

agreed > getting a rejection is helpful. Got one from UNC, rejection :(

Penn state also sent rejections 🥲

Are these programs allowing you to schedule today or just saying here's interview?

The one I just got said schedule Wednesday

what happens if we schedule an interview today? I could already schedule in thalamus although I realized the invite said to schedule Wednesday

which program? mine said schedule wednesday and it shows 0 spots for all of the dates on thalamus rn

yes LMAO and also slightly disappointed rip >wtf was it internals or are they all out?

think all are out (aways also got them)

only 6 internals, 30 spots taken, so all out

seems like all are out, i'm not an internal

Did any DOs get an interview?

did u away?

usually there's only one release date for each school unless otherwise specified> pretty sure they are all out >what about penn state

they're all penned out

rip, down to 27!

:') :'(

AZ only had a November interview date so would there be more coming still?

they also had a January date but I think it's all full> both dates are full

would you say that the majortiy of derm applicants have a handful of interviews and only a handful of applicants have the majority of invites?

Wait... Penn already released? :'(

feel like this may be true; have heard from some who applied last year who had 20+ interviews lol

if someone gets 20 invites can you share some wealth :( <3 ty

Penn state

whew

there def will be some - probably similar to last year maybe a few more

can we start listing them in the cell beside pls

should we make an interveiw detials tab????????

Anyone know when Mississippi is releasing?

Confirmed virtual : UC Davis, UCLA-harbor, UCSD, Penn State

Same here for a similar rotation date! Literally no confirmation or anything whatseoever, I check VSLO at least once a week to make sure I am not imagining it lol

you can email them but you will probably not get any information until the week before lol

same experience and had the same panic/fear. certianly reach out if you need help with housing during the rotation, but otherwise, i imagine they'll send more information closer to your rotation dates (I will also be there Oct/Nov)

denied bc rolling admission

when did you apply and when did you hear back? i know they moved up the due date due to the surplus of apps...

I applied & have not heard back

applied Jun 17 heard back Jun 23 (im the one who said denied bc rolling admission)

did you get it?

they just sent an email saying decisions will be released on July 18! Best of luck to everyone who applied!

What does someone do during a virtual away?
