What is the draw for getting into the "best" derm residency one can get into (I mean after all it is derm, which is already ridiculously difficult to get into, let alone medical school is already difficult to get into)? I mean, I know top private places have generally better teaching, more research opportunities and money, and perhaps better fellowship placement and higher board pass rate (can I get this info about the boards pass rate somewhere?) but is that really for people who wanna do Academics/high-powered positions? I'm assuming it doesn't matter so much for ppl who wanna do Private practice?
