So I keep hearing that AMGs are more and more worried about the increased number of applicants this year and are thus going on more interviews than in the previous years.
So I was thinking, pretty much the same group of people gets invited to the same places, if AMGs go on 15 interviews which i have heard of some going on or even more, and end up matching in their top 5 (which most AMGs do) then the low tier community programs will go unmatched, because they fill their interview slots with AMGs and less IMGs thinking that they'll match the AMGs because so many more applied to their program this year but in the end the AMGs end up ranking University programs higher, thus screwing over the low tier community programs, because they didn't have the opportunity of interviewing people who would end up ranking their program high.
Does that make sense? Do you guys think it could happen? Just because I have noticed that many IMGs are complaining of low interview numbers, much more than usual, and i am assuming this is due to the fact that more AMGs are holding on to more interviews.
