I'm confused...is Mississippi and LSU all out? there was little discussion for their II release so I am unsure and also grappling for hope lol

Ill be honest a lot of the times derm programs do not update their website frequently. Last cycle I was seeing interview dates with 2022/2023 on their pages well into the cycle after apps were already due. It is very possible that websites are out of date. Residency explorer is probably more accurate when it comes to that info. For example LSU derm: https://residents.lsuhsc.edu/no/dermatology/application_requirements.aspx If you scroll to the bottom of the page in the strongly encouraged section it says "For the 2022 ERAS cycle"

so for these programs, do you not need to signal them (gold or silver) if you do an away rotation there?

Feb 21

you'll have to ask them, ik programs also change from year to year, signals are still fairly new

Feb 21

you def still should silver signal your aways at the least unless specifically told otherwise, but in my experience they all still wanted a signal some aways wanted silver and told us to save gold for others

What programs are considered workhorse and what programs are considered chiller?

#5012025–2026 DermFeb 21

LSU, Tennessee, Wake forest, Mississippi, Missouri, Arkansas are examples of chill ones

lies on the Texas programs being workhorse. There are definitely chill programs here. More reasons to take people's opinions cautiously.
