it just seems like a joke for the amount of RY year posts that are for post PGY1. Like there are just taking advantage of this bottle neck effect of derm reapps. and so many are 2 year long and this is even after rejecting ppl who already did an RY as a student. Thus far its USF, Dallas texas, Goodman derm, mt sinae. like wth
how difficult is it to get these RYs compared to the post MS3 ones?
BOO
DON'T LET THEM NORMALIZE RYS!!! DO NOT (i fear they've been normalized looking at the match list)
I have been told by multiple attendings that RYs are basically the way these day or some combination of MPH, MBA, MD-PhD...kind of difficult to compete against folks that have taken extra time.
great networking but also a good time to explore your profressional interests outside of clinical - volunteering, leadership, advocacy, tech
