If you definitely are going to rank a program #1 on your list, should you advertise that to them during interviews etc?

stephew said:btw most programs make their list very shortly after interviews are done. so dont sit on the pot to0 long.
S.
sure some programs do. However its a touchy issue since they can't ask you and youre not supposed to discuss it. Once the list is submitted after the close date, no one can change anything. I can't tell you how late in the game any given program is likely to move things around. That will vary, naturally. If you are their top choice and they are unsure of your feelings Id expect most people would be inclined to go back and adjust while they can.radoncadonk said:do programs actually make changes to their list based on what you say? like telling them i'm ranking you #1?
how about really late in the course, like at any time after they've actually submitted their list.
does anyone know? what do you think steph?

I told one place that i interviewd that they were my number 1, they said that i was a 'outstanding candidate' and they thought i would be very happy at their institution.
confused..
