2025–2026 Derm
3 entries❌1. I wouldn't waste my time rotating at this program, or even apply to it, if your scores are not above 270. This program only cares about scores and scores ONLY. A good portion of the program (residents and faculty) are nice to your face and then talk behind your back.
❌2. ^second above. Residents are very nosy and cliquey, and you can tell who they'll pick based on the demographics + high scores. Does not evaluate holistically, and I wouldn't recommend unless you have ties to san antonio or the military
❌3. Did not take any home students this past match

For UT San Antonio, are we sure that the derm interview counted for our prelim interview? I got an email from the prelim telling me they couldn't offer me an interview after I already had my derm interview
#2837Feb 21
The PC said during the interview that basically the derm program gives the prelim their rank list instead of an interview

From the cornell info session, it seems like they only take people who do away rotators there, is this true?
#592Feb 21
my resident friend there said historically it's away rotators or home students/other ppl from Manhattan med schools

what about harvard?
Feb 21

i got interviews at nyu, columbia, cornell with no nyc connections and no away and being from far away, did not get mt sinai. harvard does not take into account whether you did an away or not in their interview invites; i interviewed there as well
Feb 21

ya i was told not to really bother applying if I didn't do an away because all the interviews are pretty much given to home/away students
