ACCEPTANCES vs MATRICULANTS

[PUKE]

Does anyone know the actual data for each school that accept premeds vs those who actually join that school?
This raises the question of those vacancies that are never filled in any given med school.
I vaguely remember to have seen it on a web site long ago but unable to recall it.

Accpetances aren't given in the MSAR, they're in the princeton review book, although I've seen some numbers in that book that are just plain wrong. A general rule of thumb for a conservative estimate of the number of acceptances is to multiply the matriculants by 2. However it really does vary from school to school, some schools offer lots of acceptances early, while some only fill the class, and keep large waiting lists to accept people off of. This would tend to increase your yield as people with acceptances tend to withdraw from waiting lists at schools they don't want to go to later in the application cycle.

There aren't any "vacancies" in any school. Each school fills its enrollment numbers fully.
