OFFICIAL - 2022 Match Lists

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Yeah, i guess it’s hard for me to look at NYU anywhere inferior to its peers in Columbia and Cornell even back in the old days when NYU was churning out leaders in the field (Braunwald comes to mind…)


When I was there, Saul Farber was chair of medicine and Frank Spencer was chair of surgery, Lewis Goldfrank was chief of emergency medicine, Ransohoff was chair of NS, giants all around. The younger faculty were super dedicated to education. And we had many memorable moments running around Bellevue getting stuff done after rounds. Maybe the reality was better than the name/reputation. It was a great experience and I’m grateful for my time there.

Just like Harvard undergrads develop a high level of interest in finance and management consulting, HMS students develop a high level of interest in skin ;).

What are the reputations of GME at Brown and Dartmouth? These don’t seem to be on a ton of match lists and I noticed that they seem to be relatively more open to students from mid to low tier schools (compared to Harvard, Yale, Columbia etc. where it seems like everybody comes from T20 if not T10)

Ivy League in med world only really applies to Harvard/Penn/Columbia + Cornell/Yale. Brown and Dartmouth aren’t that strong in med world.

True but for somebody without the medical school pedigree to match at the big New England/mid Atlantic programs, are these okay options for somebody who wants to match in NE?

Dartmouth is in the middle of nowhere which strikes it off the list of many medical students.

Wait till you see the new ranking of med schools lol, nyu might be no.1 now given how much NIH grants they purportedly received. It’s a bit of shameless for them to game the system so blatantly.
Lol this is weird. It’s not that deep. You don’t know these people, where they interviewed, or how they ranked programs.

You sound like an exhausting M1!!

It’s not like NYU programs are the best in the city…. I doubt overwhelming NYU grads want to stay in the city more so than Cornell and Columbia grads. Stanford IM match list is a lot stronger. Stanford own IM program isn’t that strong either just like NYU.
Let's see....Top 10 in Ortho, Derm, psych, integrated plastic and probably more.

Now your true colors are coming out with your bias of NYU. I have no horse in the race, and thought the poster that criticized you was harsh, I'm starting to wonder.

Explain the so-called "shameless" you mention? What school does not push for more NIH grants, what school does not try to move up in the "rankings", what school is not politicking for a higher rank...please!

Wayne State

Any thoughts on it? Personally, I'm most impressed by the record number of Diag Rads matches.
I wish there were more matches back to New England (where I'm originally from) but overall it looked like a strong list.

I’m an NYU alum and I agree. The match list is very strong but not the best. Not even close to the Stanford match list.


That said, I doubt there’s any substantive difference in training between IM programs at NYU vs. Brigham. Stanford med students can probably put together a more competitive application because most spend an extra year for research or to otherwise buff their apps.
I know you are coming from a place of pride. Perhaps you are not aware of how strong NYU home programs are currently considered. For lack of a better resource, doximity reputation rankings this year has NYU ranked above Stanford in derm, emergency med, internal med, neurosurgery, neurology, ob gyn, ortho, plastics, psychiatry, radiology, surgery, and urology. In some cases it isn’t even close. Further, I’d offer the argument that NYU students are proven not to be lured by a “name.”

Wayne State Univ had 11-12 Ophthalmology matches. Very impressive.

Yeah…Ophtho is a special niche for Wayne because of Kresge being a large residency class and taking in-house students.

Boston must look really nice this time of year
I'm amazed that places like NYC, SF, Boston, and Seattle remain this popular for residency. Due to admissions inflation, med students are much older than they used to be. When you're 30+, you're just too old for that ish, and you've probably got a partner making some sort of income. I can't imagine wanting to keep renting or potentially even having roommates (NYC/SF) at this stage and in this economy.

In other cities like New Haven, Atlanta, Philly, Chicago, Baltimore, Durham, Nashville, Houston, etc... you could buy a very solid place for $30-40K down or at least rent somewhere that doesn't require you to schlep yourself to a laundromat after a 12 hour day. Not to mention having a car, parking, extra cash for conveniences. Having lived in NYC and Boston, life is just hard in these cities with low income, no car, and minimal free time.

Not sure why you would be amazed.....Some of the best program lie in Boston, SF and NYC, so "top residency programs" will always appeal to candidates, regardless of what cities they are in. What stats are you looking at that med students are "much" older? Maybe some older but to say much, is stretching any stat you have seen.

Yes, you had one student match into Ophtho (my field) at Bascom Palmer Eye Institute in Miami, perhaps the top program in the country. Wow. From a relatively new med school. (However, Oakland/Beaumont has some well-known ophthalmologists, so maybe all it took was one phone call to lobby for a top student).

I will be an m1 next year. I’m trying to choose between Wayne, OUWB and MSU. I’m actually interested in Ophthalmology and also Cardiology.
Between Wayne and OUWB which school do you think had a better match list?
 
Tough call. They all seem pretty decent overall. Of course Wayne is the more established med school but it also has a bit more uncertainty now. I would go where you think you’d be happiest.

Thank you.
i qualify my response a little bit. If you apply to Ophtho, both Oakland and Wayne have home departments and ophtho residencies. MSU does not. It means you’ll have to do away rotations for LOR and perhaps fight a bit harder.

Money should be a major deciding factor...but our faculty tries to move mountains for applicants in Ophtho. Going unmatched in Ophtho is typically unheard of here.

i think that money should be the deciding factor in Wayne vs OUWB
It is for sure. OUWB tuition is almost 20k a year more expensive. I’m waiting to hear back for scholarships. If I don't get any scholarships from OUWB I wont attend. Bit lets just assume they do give me a scholarship and the money is almost the same. Which would you recommend then?

I would go Wayne state. 80k with interest isn’t anything to sneeze over and match lists comparable
 
i qualify my response a little bit. If you apply to Ophtho, both Oakland and Wayne have home departments and ophtho residencies. MSU does not. It means you’ll have to do away rotations for LOR and perhaps fight a bit harder.
Yes, I actually went to the second look day of MSU this Friday and students were saying it would be difficult to be able to find research opportunities and LOR in ophthalmology. The reason I am also considering MSU is because my family lives in Grand Rapids.

But not impossible. Program directors know that some med schools don’t have home programs. In fact, I suspect that some actually have a soft spot for applicants that need to do the extra legwork involved. Plenty of MSU students have matched into Ophtho.
 
Money should be a major deciding factor...but our faculty tries to move mountains for applicants in Ophtho. Going unmatched in Ophtho is typically unheard of here.
Thank you for your response. That's great to hear. I have noticed that OUWB usually matches 5-6 into ophtho each year.

Yes I know one of their students matched into yale for ophtho this year.

Go to Wayne, connections are worth their weight in gold for Ophtho and the opportunities to do research will be better.

Not sure why you would be amazed.....Some of the best program lie in Boston, SF and NYC, so "top residency programs" will always appeal to candidates, regardless of what cities they are in. What stats are you looking at that med students are "much" older? Maybe some older but to say much, is stretching any stat you have seen.
I'm just surprised that the location is a draw given the reality of residency (i.e., low pay, minimal free time, high stress).

Take two equally prestigious residencies, one in NYC and one in an affordable city, and typically the NYC residency is more competitive. If I have ~30 hours of non-working, non-sleeping time each week, I'd want to have an easy commute home and ample money for conveniences. Even with higher pay (~$75K), COL in NYC means you are barely scraping by unless you've got a spouse with significant income. In the cheaper cities, $60K is more than enough to pay down some loans, save for retirement or a home, and splurge on some time-saving luxuries when you have crazy weeks/rotations (e.g., grocery delivery, cleaning service, wash-and-fold, take out, a car, etc...).

Maybe I'm soured living car-less in a HCOL city on an MD/PhD stipend. Working/studying 70-80 hours/week is already exhausting, but adding the stress of unreliable public transit, schlepping my clothes to a laundromat weekly, making time to scrub my shower, kitchen, oven, and cooking almost all of my own meals has just left me completely burnt out.

To me, one of those situations just sounds so much better than the other. I guess I'm just surprised that it skews that opposite way. Not at all surprised MGH/BWH/UCSF are popular, but I'm surprised that programs like BI, Cornell, and Columbia tend to be far more popular than their prestige equivalents in cheaper cities.

Average age of graduation is ~29, and many specialties and work environments are de facto requiring more training hours (typically via previously unnecessary fellowships, but also through research years, "career development," etc...). Compared to Boomers, people are spending much more time in training these days.

I'm not going to die on this hill. Definitely not looking for an internet argument. Just voicing an opinion and wondering how many agree or disagree.

Would be interested in hearing what locales you're talking about that have the same punchiness as the big NYC/CA residencies. I think of Pitt.

Could be that a somewhat high proportion of med students have family money. Not really absurd to think that a resident with a 5000000 trust fund can live above his or her means in the big cities mentioned
 
I will be an m1 next year. I’m trying to choose between Wayne, OUWB and MSU. I’m actually interested in Ophthalmology and also Cardiology.
Between Wayne and OUWB which school do you think had a better match list?
Do you know the price difference yet? I agree Wayne is more established and I'd (probably) choose Wayne over OUWB all else equal. Although I know they had some situation with DMC that I don't know all the details of which could change my opinion.

However, if OUWB was significantly cheaper, would have no problem going there. But, at least when I applied, Wayne was the cheapest school in Michigan and I can't imagine that has changed.

Why? I just commented on the strength of a match list like everyone else is doing here. Strong and not strong. Is everyone here supposed to say every list is strong in order to be respectful? You registered a new account just to swap me lmao?!
It's almost like people might have preferences besides prestige when interviewing and ranking

hmmm this might be missing people or have errors? at least it's missing one of my future co residents lol

Tons of people have family ties to the NYC area, or are more comfortable in big cities/want easy access to the things they offer. If your commute/life is easy but it takes you hours to get to a major city, you're never gonna get to do city things on your limited time off. If you really like doing big city things, you want to be living in it already so you can enjoy it in your rare time off.
