Question about Matriculants

[PodiatricADDICT]

I read the matriculants data http://www.aacpm.org/html/statistics/PDFs/MatrStats/Matriculant_GPA.pdf

Why are the matriculating numbers up and down each year? For example in 2007 it was 586, then it went down to 425 and then back up to 579. Do they not fill the seats?

a more important stat is attrition rate post semester one, or boards II/I/III first time pass rates, or match day success rate vs the number that scramble per school

I know but I'm just saying the year the # of matriculants went down didn't the schools give those other open seats to other applicants?

My guess is that the number is wrong. If you look at this page: http://www.aacpm.org/html/statistics/PDFs/MatrStats/09-10_Total_Enroll_CLASS.pdf it shows the matriculant numbers to be much more even, except for the co 2014 which hadn't been finished enrolling when this was published. Possibly one of the schools got left out in that first graph, I dunno.
