Is it true that Wash U didn't fill last year and if so does anyone have any insight into this.
bigtuna said:I don't know specifically about Wash U but this happens every so often to programs who dont rank everybody or even a high percentage of the people they interview. I think programs generally rank a certain number of people based on historically how many people they have needed to rank in order to fill. Doesn't necessarily mean there is a big problem with a program.

Jamezuva said:I never quite understood this. Excluding the few people who "bomb" their interviews, why would a program invite anyone for an interview if they were not up to snuff? It seems very inconsiderate for a program to have applicants spend a significant amount of money, in a period where we have very little, to travel to it if they are not going to end up on the rank list at all.
