Fame & Shame

2025–2026 Derm

1 entry

1. Incredibly well-prepared for its first cycle. Attendings were amazing, rest of staff were amazing, genuinely invested in mentoring students. Rotators got opportunities to get exposure in all aspects of dermatology. Work at a safety-net hospital, so great for those who want to work with an underserved population and not just bread-and-butter derm. Plenty of research options for those interested too.

Really surprised that University of Missouri-Kansas City's derm program (new one that entered the match this year), didn't take any home students.

I think their students match well though so could just be they wanted to go elsewhere but you're right

Can someone give me some thoughts and persepctive on Mizzou vs Kansas

#3069Feb 24

Unlike Mizzou, Kansas mostly takes Mizzou people. If you are a Mizzou, you should rank Kansas over Mizzou

Mizzou and Kansas seem to have similar vibes, but Kansas City is a better location
