Hi everybody,
Just curious as to how many rotating internships people ranked/will rank when they apply through the VIRMP? Obviously an applicant would be less likely to be successful in the match if they ranked very few internships. However, I remember reading somewhere that applicants who ranked too many internships were also not as successful.
Not sure how this would be the case due to the way the algorithm works... Perhaps these applications were also slightly below average and just decided to rank as many places as they could and hope for a spot somewhere... Yet, may not have matched regardless..?
I'm currently sitting on a list of 25 internships that I would go to if matched. Could cut it down, but is there any point besides saving the extra $$ it costs to rank above a certain number of places?
Thoughts?
