"holy shit UIC had over 20 people apply derm and only 11 matched it looks like per their website < oof but also 20 is....too much < i know but that is really a huge bummer < are there going to be another 20 from them next cycle ? " < it was way over 20 < Matching 11 people into Dermatology is actually a pretty good rate. I believe UIC's med school class is pretty huge at like 300 students. < UIC allows us to hide our match results publicly, so not everyone that matched is there. Also, the >20 count takes into account all three campuses, most people matched at the Rockford and Peoria campuses

The number of applicants from some of these programs are unbelievable...like 10, 12, 14 students applying in one year?! I feel really bad for them, I feel like that would make it super hard to get interviews since you're being compared to your classmates / since programs won't interview more than like 3-4 from a single school?! I don't know but I never thought some schools would have so many applicants, hope friends at UIC, Harvard, Case, etc. are hanging in there! <3
