Agree with this. I was fortunate to get a large number of interviews and was told by multiple places the same line of highly likely to match, will match anywhere I want etc mentioned. Turns out many of my friends have gotten identical lines from the same places. Only one place I know of will call you to really press and gauge your interest and will adjust their ROL accordingly, no surprise they never go deep on their list.
To be honest I'm not sure a huge number of interviews or impressive application will greatly increase chance of matching DO because it seems like most places put a huge emphasis on rotating. Basically if you rotate it's your spot to lose assuming your application is at least average. Only one of 15 established programs I interviewed at seemed to place little importance on rotating.
Does anyone know if the letter from mount sinai just said the same generic thing about being a strong candidate for everyone?
