Swiftghoul posed an interesting question on the interview invite thread.

I thought I'd start this new thread for those of us who are anxious enough to have counted what % of invites have been sent out. Just for curiousity, please post how many of the programs you applied to have sent out invites.

Personally, based on the 47 programs I applied to, ~24 (just over 50%) have sent out invites.

Out of these 24, I have only personally heard yes or no from 8, and another 3 which I know through orthogate that are not sending out any more invites. Who knows about the other 13 (which I only know about because others kindly posted them on this website)- I'm optimistically hoping at least a few will send second recond invites my way or I'm on their waitlist and will receive some more invites as others cancel due to conflicts. We'll see? Good luck everyone.
i don't have the breakdown exactly about receiving notification or not but with the help of orthogate i have heard yes/no from about 50-60% as well. I do know that i have called some programs when i see invites on the forum and ask if all invites have been sent out and 1/2 say yes and half say no....so i wish i could make some logic out of this too.

I'm in a similar situation.

Out of 30 programs, 14 or 15 have sent out at least some interviews. I have personally heard (yes or no) from only 11. I have not bothered to call any programs though.

As of today, I have heard from 10 out of 22 on my list (45%). I dont think that any of the 12 I haven't yet heard from have sent out anything to date.

If it helps, I'm applying almost exclusively in the Northeast, which have been later than average in past years.

Oh yeah, anconeus brought up a good point that I ment to mention.

It appears the West Coast and the Northeast (NYC & Philly in particular) make up the majority of what has not been sent out yet. It appears most of the Midwest is out. I can't say much about the South since I only applied to couple of programs, but it seems most of them have sent invites also.

Applied to 53 schools, heard yes/no from 18, and has 12 other schools offer interviews to other people but not me, so I am at 56.6% of my schools having offered interviews.
