what is this for

new pgy-2 spot for UCSF (not puerto rico)... can we stop sabotaging this amazing opportunity for some candidates guys like grow up - someone needs to lock the cell >> Lmao yall need to relax its not that deep < you're giving "I can't afford to have virtue yet" >> It's not that deep >> lol at the virtue ref (virtue person and tampon man are besties methinks)

ucsf, ccf, cw, MI

Whered u interview is the real question for this

UCSF has 30k!

Penn, Columbia >Mayo has tons of support, UCSD also has robust fertility benefits (I think 20-30k)

are fertility benefits mainly egg freezing or do they are include IVF?

i think both

a handful of programs ive interviewed at have had this. so nice to see!

Is there a way to see the fertility specific coverage in a plan or did the programs specifically highlight it as a benefit? would love to know which programs have coverage!

Also impressed by Penn, Harvard, Yale, Northwestern

also, I wonder how far the Harvard/Yale name can take someone.

ummm was this UCSF?? bc i had the exact same thing happen to me

mustve been a confusng question doesnt seem like your fault

UCSF residents manage an attendings inbox all together when they're on that specialty clinics rotation. It's not every month or every clinic + they're given protected time (separate from regular academic time) to do it

UCSF does not manage attending inbox

NYU only manages inbox for patients they have seen in clinic

CCF residents also only manage inboxs for patients they have seen in clinic and are also given protected administrative time.

do you know if you get academic/admin time at nyu

yes you do

thank you!

and we have the entire UCSF squad lol

and the Sinai RY fellows> and cornell lovers

Someone share the Arkansas secret, what's so great??

The governor of arkansas?

I'm more curious about Arkansas> home??

yeah lots of us low/mid tier applicants try to avoid this spreadsheet as it makes us more stressed, the high tier applicants have tons of interviews and their stress is probably more about where they are matching while for some of us, we are stressed about matching at all!

we all are stressed about matching

y'all need to remember that this is NOTHING!!!!!!! compared to a residency in IM/surgery/peds/etc. yes it sucks but it's so so so so much better than what you could be dealing with. This is also another plug for everyone to do a chill TY instead of a prelim lol < what an odd response

Not every program exploits, but yes some definitley do

…what was odd about that response

that theyre putting down other specialties as if theyre malignant> because they are lol

yikes if you guys think derm is any different… the joke is that specialties are all malignant in some capacity and it depends on the program. Derm isn't special and you aren't above other specialties because you matched Derm. respect other specialites guys what is wrong with that....

Being forced to do stupid shit like cover atttending inbox can actually make a big impact on your QoL .. lol

At CCF, you only cover the attending in boxes of patients that you have seen so it was just part of the continuing care of your patients just like in the real world

which programs do this?

CCF, UMich, OHSU

tufts too

without the attending salary yay

Umich does not cover attending inboxes (you cover your own inbox for patients you staffed with an attending, and if they see patients independently, they cover the inbox stuff)

clinical training is stronger at UCSF but Stanford has better QOL and still good training > this spreadsheet loves to frame ucsf as a workhorse and it possibly true based on interview. Stanford is consistently said to be more chill and overall enjoyable

this question has been asked 1 million times how many people are actually getting interviews from both

mbn

Generally felt appreciated by the faculty there, it was clear that most of them had taken the time to read my application and follow up with specific questions about it.

Someone deleted negative impression at left, take everything here with a grain of salt y'all

faculty were lovely, i was so impressed

earlier interviewer, but felt PD asked an inappropriate question. i think that got deleted

what did it say

Stanford has an unmatched brand name and is, non-negotiably, a top program. Anyone who tries to convince you not to go there likely has ill intentions

agreed. same with UCSF, Penn, NYU, Harvard, etc.

the person was asking Stanford vs ucsf and others commented they'll be ranking Stanford over ucsf. Felt like several people said that

I think patterns are very shady, OP. haha.

lmao

imagine being in the position to get to choose ucsf or stanford COULDNT BE ME must be nice

A lot of mental masturbation and obsession over what the top programs are and comparing them. As a derm resident, I will say to be grateful if you match anywhere and be extra grateful if you match at one of your top choices/place you really liked + 10002

about 25?

oh wow, there are like 20 for this week, that's more than I expected in total

last week more like 20

UCSF stiff with competition this year (sponsored by BlueChew)

they interviewed 8 of us for the peds track lol

it was more like 13 last week

the outlook calendar invite usually has the number!

doesnt their website say 22-24 interviews for clinical track??

plus 8-10 for research track, not sure if 22-24 includes peds

probs not? this week 19 + last week 13 = 32 minus 8-10 peds would give us 22-24 (unless 2 was same days as clinical, then would probably include it)

there were some 2 same day as clinical i know

peds had a whole separate interview day in december

okay nice the numbers add up

im confused how do the numbers add up lmao

they don't

8-10 peds in Dec, 19 = 32 in Jan which include 22-24 clinical track and 8-10 (2). So peds is just separate and the number invited is not advertised on the website

lmao ummm 10 (peds in Dec) + 13 (Jan #1) + 19 (Jan #2) = 42

damn

is it still considered a 'workhorse' after interview?

residents seemed really stressed about consult months

how about their clinical work? Are they stressing there?

wondering this too does anyone have insight>

how was the interview? Is it behavioral or conversational ?

mix of both but each room has a standard question/theme

agree they all seemed afraid of inpt time lmao

did u feel like they read app / asked questions about it or more generic?

yes but i also feel that all my interviews read my app

was very obvious they read my app asked about specifics and commented on my letters

im still sad ucsf didnt send me an interview :(

inpatient month at the university hospital is very intense with high patient load and only 1 res +/- sub-I. but you learn a lot and have lots of support from attendings

Someone keeps lurking and deleting any comments that might cause someone to rank stanford

rank whatever you want, your career outcome will prob be similar at either place if you match there

ucsf, i'd take any advice on spreadsheet with a very large grain of salt since they're clearly trying to manipulate information

true true, thank you for the headsup

yea i agree ^^ < aaaand someone just deleted that. Please have some integrity. protecting this cell.

yes

yes was talking to someone who matched at a research heavy prgram as a phd but they're not interested in doing more research and they feel PRESSURE

I feel we may have talked to the same person!

what even are research heavy rpograms? i feel like every program I have interviewed at has said they don't care if residents do research

which

some programs have a research requirement to graduate

which ones

u hate to see it but uconn is one, its only 3 pubs tho

UCSD is notorious for being research heavy and placing a huge emphasis on it

def there are some programs the highly academic ones that do care that residents do research

most of the ones highly ranked by research funding care about it look at the doximity list ucsf, northwesterm, case, etc im too lazy to look up actual research reqs but case has one, UCSD has one idk

Can you just do a case report or find an eager med student and publish something simple for most of these requirements?

ask the residents man we dont know anything... we're in the same boat :/

Case is not research heavy at all

agree actually i don't think anyone is certain we're all hearing diff things bc i heard case was reserach heavy so i think person above is so right ask the residents!!> Case is research heavy. Has its own research group for med students and publishes constantly

the residents at UCSD said even though there is a reseach requirement, you can do the minimum if you're not interested in research
