Number of categorical vs advanced positions at each program?

Is there a way to find out the number of categorical and advanced spots available at certain programs? I looked on Freida and the programs websites, and I still can't find it for some programs. Anyone know where else to look?

Thanks.

this nrmp data shows what it's been in the past, but that's not to say programs won't change these numbers this year. hope this helps.

Thanks for the info. I'm guessing the C in the Program Code stands for categorical and the A stands for advanced, is that right?

I'm a little worried about asking because it might make me look bad if they think I'm only interested in their program if they have a certain number of spots, or if they have more categorical spots instead of advanced spots. Or am I just being too paranoid?

You're being paranoid. If there's something that's not on the website, which is frequently the case, just say "i was looking through the website and was unable to see if _________ was there. Could you tell me more about ______. That's what I did regarding LORs since for some reason a lot of programs don't have that listed on their pages.
