I guess this is the best place to ask for advice on becoming a derm.
I'm in the process of applying to med schools and what I gather from the competition of the derm residency in order to be considered for an allo derm residency my best bet would be to get into an MD program vs. DO.
As a future med student I just wanted to know how to go about from there. How do you find research positions in order to gain publications and is this research done in the summer or doing your med school year? How do you go about acquiring the derm rotations and getting to know people in derm if you don't know anyone in the field? Is this something you discuss with an advisor in med school or do you just line up your own rotations, research etc.?
Thanks guys..sorry if I sound like an amateur, but I kind of am
