Help!

So I am confused as to how to make a list. I am applying for derm and prelim., so how do i rank both of the programs?

I ranked the derm program I want to end up in as #1, but if i try to rank the #1 prelim program, it knocks down my derm program to #2. How do I fix this? Please help!!

You need to create a supplemental rank order list (you can create a separate one for each advanced program or use the same one for all advanced programs):

Supplemental Rank Order Lists
The supplemental rank order list is used by applicants who rank advanced programs ("A" positions beginning in the second year of training) on their primary rank order list and who also want to match to a compatible preliminary or transitional first-year program (“P” position) for the first year of training. ​

For each PGY-2 (advanced "A") program ranked on the primary rank order list, a number of PGY-1 (preliminary or ransitional) programs that correspond to that advanced program may be ranked on a supplemental rank order list. Although not a requirement, applicants generally consider geographic location in developing their supplemental rank order lists for specific advanced programs. Therefore, more than one supplemental rank order list linked to different advanced programs may be created, if necessary, and these will be marked as A, B, C, etc. A supplemental list must be created before it can be assigned to an advanced program. ​

Here's where to read more (look at page 74):
