Why is Jefferson so low on the doximity reputation list? Is it a bad program/bad training?> no idea about doximity but its an excellent well respected program

Why is Jefferson so low on the doximity reputation list? Is it a bad program/bad training?> no idea about doximity but its an excellent well respected program> another reason why Doximity is bs

I think doximity is sollid for the top 10-15 ish programs but after that it kinda goes downhill and has inaccurate info. For example it says CCF has like 20 residents but actually there are 12. It's entirely based on program reputation so I think after the top 10-15 it's kinda a wash.

I do think Jeffersons reputation has not been as solid the past 5-10 yrs (lost many faculty), but definitely a decade or so ago it was thought of as one of the best

Imagine using rankings to decide which schools you want to go to lmao

not trying to start anything, just thought it was interesting that 2 siblings who are both re-applicants from Jefferson's med school both matched at Wayne State and don't seem to have much derm pubs or anything, at least from Googling

Mar 25

they're like "not trying to start anything" yet here they are trying to start something lol

Mar 25

Mar 26

not picking on, just thought it was interesting

Mar 26

It is strange.

Mar 26

give us more nepo baby tea

Mar 26

seems like they were primarily doing neurosurg research lol super weird esp bc they are not from the area

Mar 27

not even weird to talk about because its kinda messed up that people that dedicated years to a field don't match but these two do...unfortunate that they took spots from others

Mar 27

For those who were offered an interview at Jefferson, we didn't need to do anything/respond to the email for scheduling, right? They are just going to assign us a timeslot? Having a moment of panic that I dropped the ball by not replying to the email or anything
