Can anyone comment on Jefferson? All I got out of interview is that peds is weak and dermpath is really strong. Have heard from other applicants that they were not impressed with that department during rotations

I think it's different as a resident than as an away rotator. As an away rotator, there are too many students for it to be a strong educational experience.

Resident was an asshole but thankfully he’s leaving. I can’t get over the driving to Deleware and potentially Jersey in the coming years
