who told you they interview 100 people lol? There are only 3 sessions and there are 15-20 each...that does not make 100 people...but yes don’t go...there are people would love to go in your place

The PD did suggest in a webinar (think it was one of the CNS ones that they did for Covid) that they'd interview 100 people. Would be surprised if it ends up being that many in the end though, likely closer to 60-70 based on the numbers being reported

It is Mayo...are they afraid they won’t fill the spots lol

Unparalleled

Can the residents expand on this? We always hear "the quality of applicant seems to go up every year" so how does that look from the other side?

I also wonder if there will be any sort of plateau point? It can't continue like this indefinitely

Plateau will happen eventually. However, there are more students taking time off before medical school to do something interesting and during medical school to crank out research and study for Step exams. This raises the scores and pub count considerably compared to 10 years ago.
