So I was reading the algorithm to the match and had a question that I can't find the answer too. First of all, I've been told many times that the match is in the applicants favor. Anyways, here's a hypothetical scenario. Let's say I rank a program number 1. Now, there's another applicant out there who has the same program I ranked 1 ranked at number 5 in his respective ROL. Let's say that other applicant doesn't match in his top 4 programs, is there any way he would match at the program over me if he ranked the program 5 and that I ranked it 1??? In this scenario, both I and the other applicant are ranked by the program and the other candidate is ranked higher than me.
