Sentiment score: 5.8 / 10

Applicants discuss SSM Health/St Louis University SOM-MO primarily in logistical contexts (interview scheduling, spot swaps, comparison shopping with peer programs). Limited substantive feedback exists; one detailed comment praises strong dermatology faculty and didactics. Most mentions are neutral inquiries about program details, culture, and interview logistics rather than evaluative statements.

have programs already decided their rank list or does it change during February? Wondering if it's program dependent or what's the most common practice... Do some programs just submit on Feb 2 and don't look at it again?>i've heard most programs rank after the last interview

#27542025–2026 DermFeb 21

is this also the case for programs that finish interviewing early on (nov/dec)?

also i wouldn't say any of these are guaranteed. it should be *highly increases* your chances of matching

also i would directly talk to the research fellows that are coming from these RYs. If the mentors are saying one thing, and RY fellows that matched are saying another about their experiences, I'd be wary. Don't forget that many applicants have home programs and other sources of networking/support that could have contributed in very meaningful positive ways.

also if mentors don't offer to connect you with past research fellows who have matched i'd take that as a red flag

What to do if you matched a prelim, did a RY already? How do we get these R spots and should we apply for RYs now too for after intern year?

#33392025–2026 DermMar 16

Regarding RY's after intern year, apparently there are some out there for MD's with good track records of matching their research fellows to their residency - I think those go fast, so if you want to do one of those then it's good to start looking at applying now...
