I WANT A UCLA INTERVIEW SO BAD

Mar 23

< but actually what is going on with these programs. interviews are coming up fast

Mar 23

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.

#10732019-2020 DermMar 23

rotated through Jefferson and was not impressed with the resident culture.X 10000

Mar 23

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

Mar 23

LOL i think i know exactly which resident you're talking about

Mar 23

I KNOW which resident you're talking about. the 1st years are cool, but overshadowed by a few not-so-great upper years

Mar 23

#21842018-2019 DermMar 22

Would anyone who interviewed at Jefferson last week be willing to give their impressions of the interview day?

#12152018-2019 DermMar 22
