Hi all! I am an incoming MS1 so a total newbie and very grateful for making it into medical school. I am considering dermatology as one of the specialties I want to explore in medical school to see if I'd be a good fit. I've been looking at Match Lists for the past few years out of curiosity and I am noticing (and someone mentioned it at some point during a presentation) that some programs don't seem to match students from other programs. Particularly, I have heard and noticed that UT Houston or Baylor programs don't match many students from UTMB, and vice versa a little bit. Is there an unspoken thing going on between these two areas - Houston programs and UTMB in Galveston? Please don't throw eggs at me lol I know that most program directors will say the school doesn't matter and that the applicant does, so they will take the most qualified candidates regardless. However, I can't help but notice the lack of UTMB folks matched into UT Houston or Baylor residencies in Derm. Thanks so much! I could be totally crazy and imagining things, but I was just wondering if this beloved community had anything to say abut this 
Thank you!
Thank you!
