The amount of open slots at Loyola is pretty shocking. Looking at their website it looks like they've been averaging 12/yr with 10 current PGY-1s. Based on those numbers they filled just over half their categorical spots and none of their advanced. The 6 slots at Rush.... I think that's been already discussed in threads from last year so I'm not going to rehash it
. What about UMass? I don't know anything about the program but is there a reason they consistently have open slots? It looks like they had 7 open spots last year too. Maryland seems to have gotten their act together going from 6 open last year to none this year.
And 8 empty slots at NYC programs?! That's not what I would have expected based on how often I hear people volunteering to cut off their left foot so that they can live with six roommates in a sprawling 400sqft windowless concrete box in Manhattan.
