This is probably an annual topic, but I wanted to get a feel for how many programs people are applying to this year.

How did everyone decide on the number to apply to? Especially the <15 person.

I'm just refreshing this back to the top---only 9 responses with 200 hits?

I was suggested a "ballpark" for how many applications I should send out by a few of the faculty and residents. Nobody told me less than 30, so I must not have the Step I 285 that warranted the rocks to only throw out 15 apps by whoever.

The reason there are so few people participating in the poll is because you must be logged in to cast your vote. There are always a lot more anonymous users than registered users on this board.

I was in the 15-30 because I applied to 30. I will probably add more. My guess is that some people stayed at 30 to avoid the price increase in applications.
