Ok, guys, I need help...

1) How many Categorical and Advanced interviews?
2) How many prelim-IM interviews?
3) How many TY interviews?

to be safe. My stats are great. Applying to local good programs and some superstar places elsewhere.

To get an idea, look for the "Charting Outcomes" data for overall match rate vs. # ranks on ROL by specialty. It's a file published by the NRMP every year.
 
If I may so boldly conjecture, I do believe Doctor4Life was 😴 'ing at this.

Mkay, I'll stop being pissy...but back to the topic, guys, would you say:

1) 10 cat/adv interviews
2) 5 prelim IM interviews

is enough?

Or,

1) 10 cat/adv interviews
2) 3 prelim IM interviews + 5 TY interviews?
