To facilitate the kind of info I'm looking to generate, please assume we aren't talking about the 5% of whatever for whom money is no concern and whatever % where money is absolutely critical (i.e. could not attend unless it's a state school). In other words, applicants for whom money ranges from somewhat important to important as a selection variable.
Given the above context, are there general trends in terms of how those with choices between an IS admit and a somewhat to significantly more prestigious admit tend to choose? Will those with a top 15 admit generally choose the top 15? What about if the choice is a school in the top 20-30 range? What about the frequently cited mid- to mid-lower tier schools (Case, Rochester, Emory, Ohio State, BU, Einstein, etc). Is there an inflexion point where IS schools are clearly favored? And obviously I'm not necessarily counting the higher ranked publics, although the same dynamic could apply, like say Ohio State or UNC vs a top 15 school.
As a relevant aside, are there published yield numbers for all of the MD programs? I would assume there are a handful in the top 10 or so that might have the highest, followed by state schools.
