Just wondering if you're willing to share how many interviews you attended (or even how many you applied to as well). Did you deny any interviews? Thank you.

PGY1 I applied to 10 received 5 invites and attended 5. PGY2 applied to 9 and so far have received 8 and I am attending 7 still waiting to hear back from 1. 7 interviews feels like way too many honestly. I think the average applicant who matches has between 3-4 interviews for PGY1s.

Great advice. Thanks so much!!
