Hey all,
I didn't match into derm and I feel pretty devastated. It has been a dream of mine to get into derm for a long time, and I have done everything that was in my power to get in. Did well in med school, master's, research, great letters, people in my derm department told me to apply, etc. etc. It seems that everyone else who applied got in. It feels crushing. I thought I would at least match at my own school but no such luck. I am at a loss as to what I can do to improve my app and move forward. I don't even know what I would do if I wanted to go into a different specialty.
Congrats to those who did match though.
