What is a dermatology PGY-1 position - is that categorical derm where the institution also offers an automatic intern year place?

The unfilled "PGY-1" is actually a physician ONLY spot - that's how NRMP files it

So Mayo Clinic didn't fill its spots?

It's my wild guess, I thought it was the only residency program offering a 1 track.

17 spots PGY-1 South and 1 is unfilled? Other than Mayo Clinic Jacksonville what other program is a categorical in the south?

I think so. What other programs are categorical in south - that's not 17

I can't think of any others and I interviewed at a good chunk of the southern programs

There are no categoricals in the soap. There are 6 A and 1 R

That's not what it shows on the list though? It shows 10 unfilled Derm PGY-2 and 1 unfilled PGY-1

not all unfilled programs choose to participate in SOAP

I don't know if any Derm program will actually do SOAP. They will take their sweet old time, and go beyond the end of the week. Trust me.
