Just finished and got so many errands done around my place. I’m applying derm hopefully in 2 years and am bookmarking this to watch again when I’m in the midst of ERAS season. I appreciated what you guys said regarding research years because I really don’t want to have to take one but feel pressured to. Thanks for being the blueprint ❤
aw, this was so cute. From my experience, a research year is definitely not necessary. It's like what Margaret said - you need a combination of competitive things, but not all! Thank you for your sweet words, and the best of luck with your bright future! :)
thank you both so much for this. i applied to med school this cycle (no responses yet) and derm is my end goal, has been since the day i declared premed 🥺
You got this queen!! The cycle is still early and things can happen, it only takes one school! I love the dedication to derm so early on, its gonna make you an amazing derm one day! Wishing the best for you. Keep us updated!! :)
Don't be scared!! The stats honestly appear scarier than they are because of outliers. Those people definitely exist but remember there are high outliers in every variable. A consistent range of performance across the board is all you need!
I think it's possible if you shine on your away. But I would definitely try to have everything including poster/abstracts add up to 5+ if you can or even 5+ if some things are in review. So I think it's possible but aways are everything!
Trying to make your app stronger in other realms is key. Like I alluded to, I didn't have perfect grades so it reaffirmed I wanted to do my research year. But even more valuable than that, is shining during your aways! Choose your aways wisely and perform your best. That will prevail over any applicant with perfect grades who didn't have that same work ethic or even chemistry with the residents.
Yes! It is rare but the times I have seen it they do research years at the institution they usually match. Specifically the ones I know also are usually already attending dermatologists in other countries who are looking to repeat residency here rather than traditional med school IMGs from the Caribbean/India. Also, I don't think its completely - impossible - but, i think you have to have a very, very strong mentor who vouches for you and has significant pull.
@@DermBeautyMD Puneet could you please do a video on the checklist of things an IMG needs to do in order to Match, things that are optional and things that you need to do to have a realistic chance. That would be so helpful 😭😭

I'm looking to match derm but I'm honestly getting scared off by looking at the admission stats
Don't be scared!! The stats honestly appear scarier than they are because of outliers. Those people definitely exist but remember there are high outliers in every variable. A consistent range of performance across the board is all you need!
Will you ever talk about your interview numbers??
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Could I possibly connect with you guys for help with medical school?
Time stamps pls
If you have everything else, step scores, EC’s honors, but only 3-4 pubs with other posters/abstracts can you still match?
I think it's possible if you shine on your away. But I would definitely try to have everything including poster/abstracts add up to 5+ if you can or even 5+ if some things are in review. So I think it's possible but aways are everything!
do you have advice on matching with low preclinical grades if we find out later during med school that we like derm?

thank you so much!! You’re so so helpful. Please consider making a video on how to shine during aways🫶🫶
do you know of any IMGs-not necessarily at your workplace but in general in Derm?
Yes! It is rare but the times I have seen it they do research years at the institution they usually match. Specifically the ones I know also are usually already attending dermatologists in other countries who are looking to repeat residency here rather than traditional med school IMGs from the Caribbean/India.

What happened to your Instagram.
Why you left mam😢
Why is derm so hard to match into?
did you write a letter of intent?
I remember when Reddit was blowing up rip to them
I’m actually annoyed we aren’t besties irl 😭
me too babes😭
Gorgeous girls
I can't hear them properly??? Audio is muffled and they are mumbling a bit. Esp Puneet
Oh no :( We did have a mishap with the audio this video but not gonna happen again on our watch.
