Let's post the # of spots available for the # of applicants interviewed at specific programs if you know them (please specify # of clinical spots vs # of basic science spots).😀
 
Programs typically interview 10-12 candidates per spot. I went on a good number of interviews last year and this usually held true. Also keep in mind though they will often give one of those spots to a decent internal candidate.
 
UF Gainsville: 4 spots (3 clinical; 1 basic science); Interviewing 48 people
 
Based on last year's experience🙁all clinical )

Mayo Scottsdale: 2 spots, usually 18-20 interviews
Banner Good Samaritan, AZ: 3 spots, 45 interviews
UC Irwine: 2 spots, 12 interviews
Brooklyn Med Center: interviewed for 4 spots (2 each for 2008 and 2009) and had called approximately 40 people
Cleveland Clinic Florida: Called 10 people for 1 spot
 
gi joe, are you from UF gainesville?
 
I heard NW is still reviewing applications, but will offer only 20 interviews for 3 spots...this is the best odds I have seen yet.

Good luck to us all in getting the NW interview.

Per www previous post on interview impressions (thanks for contributing),
