I just found out Dr. Pimple Popper went to residency at Southern Illinois University or something and now realize that none of this matters b/c where you go for residency doesn't even predict your future success lol > dermies can make anything happen > yeah i think people are obsessed with reputation on this spreadsheet which is so interesting, it really doesn't matter some of the most famous academic derms didn't all come through Harvard/Penn/NYU x3 dont tell that to the same 20 people clogging up this spreadsheet with questions about the same 3 programs lmfao!
