Unfortunately, I have also received nothing but rejections. UNC makes 5 for me, all have been posted already. I think, however, that for the most part, those who are getting interviews are either, stellar beyond doubt, or have some connection to the places interviews are being offered at, and those of us who have yet to get one, should stay positive and realize that our time will come. Everything I have heard from those who matched in the past is not to freak out until after thanksgiving. So for those of us "average" dermatology applicants, keep your head up, I know I am!!🙂
 
unc hates me. btw, if the same 30-50 people are given interviews at every program, then they'll have to bail on some and leave slots for us other folks. man i hate getting rejections. it kills me. makes me feel like garbage. i just wish i knew what their reasoning was.

if there is ~500 applicants and ~40 interviews/school, then it stands to reason that the same 80-100 people will be offered interviews at every school. am i thinking of this wrong? maybe they didn't apply to every school.

there's always puerto rico!

I was wondering the same thing. If the same people get rejections and the same people get interviews, won't there be a ton of spots open? anyone know how many more/less applications there are compared to last year?

It's interesting that you mention PR-I even asked about that. I wonder how large their applicant pool is. I would imagine that if someone speaks Spanish, their chances of getting in would improve significantly since they only take Spanish speaking applicants.

519 apps for 30 interviews -- depressing

Also, looks like it probably is a big year for derm. Looking at the 2009 match data, it seems there were 567 derm applicants. So unless over 90% of applicants applied to UNC, which I doubt, this year is bigger than last 🙁...

A lot of interview spots will open up as time goes on because right now some people are getting a ton of interviews, and they will not be able to go to them all. Keep the faith everyone!

Everything I have heard from those who matched in the past is not to freak out until after thanksgiving. So for those of us "average" dermatology applicants, keep your head up, I know I am!!🙂


so i can "officially" go into my panic mode after T-giving..? that's less than 2 wks away.. :scared::scared::scared::scared::diebanana: :diebanana: :boom::boom::boom:

IIRC, the stats you posted were unreal. seriously, it cant get much better than what you have, rockstar!
 
location, location, location.

As you can see, all of my interviews thus far are within a particular geographic area; there's definitely a regional bias in derm.

I certainly don't consider myself a superstar derm applicant. I am thankful for each and every interview I receive.

It's still early, guys. We'll be hearing from programs well into December. I wish everyone here all the best and hope to meet some of you on the trail.

penn st just took a dump on my chest.

Dude, your rejection reactions make me laugh out loud! I feel terrible that you are getting rejections, but at least you're making me chuckle...not that it counts for anything. With your stats though, I think you'll be fine.

UCONN makes two! Maybe I won't hurl myself off a bridge afterall. Get back to me after thanksgiving.

Headline will read:

"Desperate man with trytophan poisioning and 3 total derm interviews found at bottom of gorge"
 
I see rejections went out for Wake, but has anyone received any interviews or wait listing from them?

I haven't. This sucks. I am still stuck at 0 interviews. 🙁

Anyone else in my same boat?

I also have few prelims!! I'm freaking out!!

location, location, location.

As you can see, all of my interviews thus far are within a particular geographic area; there's definitely a regional bias in derm.

I certainly don't consider myself a superstar derm applicant. I am thankful for each and every interview I receive.

It's still early, guys. We'll be hearing from programs well into December. I wish everyone here all the best and hope to meet some of you on the trail.

There is definitely a regional bias (which sucks for those of us from a region with not too many spots)
 
I haven't. This sucks. I am still stuck at 0 interviews. 🙁

I also have few prelims!! I'm freaking out!!
I'm in the exact same boat. Before interviews started coming out, I actually thought I was a reasonably good applicant on paper...apparently the 25 or so schools listed above would beg to differ.

This just gets more depressing with each passing day.

I'm starting to regret not having applied to a backup specialty. :scared:
 
I am in the same boat...zero interviews and 2 rejections.

I applied to 10 schools and am kicking myself in the butt for not making the list longer.

I have completed one residency and practiced for 4 years and now applying for a second. I read that the funding is a bit difficult for a second residency which to be honest, I did not even know that this was an issue that existed.

Dermward,
What residency did you complete ? Does the place where you completed residency have a derm program or the hospital you worked at? I have seen a number of people have done residencies in IM and then did Derm at the same hospital.
 
This is the most up-to-date list. Wayne State fell of the list somehow so I threw it back on here. Sorry it's the perfectionist within me. 😀

if there is ~500 applicants and ~40 interviews/school, then it stands to reason that the same 80-100 people will be offered interviews at every school. am i thinking of this wrong? maybe they didn't apply to every school.

there's always puerto rico!

there must be at least 350 people that get interviews, otherwise not all of the spots could get filled nationally. i think the stat is that around 600ish get offered at least 1 interview, but this is perhaps skewed by many departments interviewing all of their home applicants.
 
I completed an ophthalmology residency from a top 5 program and did a fellowship in dermatologic cosmetic surgery.

I don't know, not looking good. Got my 3rd rejection letter from Wake today.
 
I am not getting ANY love from my region. 🙁
I thought you would have a better chance in your own region right?? If my own friggin' region doesn't want me, then why would some program far far away?
What is wrong with me?!?!

Each time I see an interview posted that I didn't get, it's like a dagger in my heart.
Oh well... still at least 75 or so programs to go.... plus, there's bound to be a trickle down effect after all the programs give out invites and people who have 30 or more have to start canceling. It's really infeasible to fit more than 20 interviews in, right?

There is definitely a regional bias (which sucks for those of us from a region with not too many spots)
 
Being as neurotic as I am:

I have received 4 invites of 26 programs that have responded.
This does not include my home institution that will interview me, but they have yet to send out invites.
This also does not include my away rotation, which may interview me, but they also have not sent out invites.

I applied to about 100 programs, so hopefully I will get a good number of interviews.

=)
 
Dermaholic, you're just like me. 😛 I've been meaning to update it.... seems like dates and places get dropped here and there... Don't worry, your work and effort has not gone to waste. I started with your update and then added to it.

When you all update the main list, try to find the most recent one... I know sometimes when a lot of invites are coming in at the same time, multiple people will be posting, so some will fall through the cracks. Dermaholic and I will most likely catch those. 😛

And to laxman, it sounds like you are in good shape. Congrats on all your interviews.

You have nothing to worry about in terms of getting interviews. In fact, you're way ahead of the curve. As for your neurosis, it's actually pretty understated when compared to the average in this forum.

Speaking of neurotic, I took a look at the Ophthal and Plastics forum and they are relatively stoic throughout their application process. There's nothing quite like the rollercoaster of emotions that hits the derm board on a daily basis. 🤣
