Hi gonnif


thanks for putting these on. Is there a way to know how this compare with previous year. I mean, are there more seats or more applicants per seat as the years go on?


Anyone knows?


Thanks again for putting these out. Greatly appreciated.

That’s not bad. I think it will get better as well because there will be less applicants considering the consistent rise in tuition and a gloomy economy.

Seek and thou shall find

If you look upper right corner of the original link you will find a summary that includes comparisons of the past several years.

Btw, for allopathic schools, the number of available seats is growing at a faster rate than the number of applicants,

Almost any possible data (with the glaring exception of age-based data, likely for legal implications) for MD, DO, and NRMP can be as below

Use link above and look at upper left of screen for additional links to MD/PhD data and ERAS (allopathic residency)data

Hi Gonnif


well, this is awesome. I have looked and indeed, during the past 3 years, enrollment has increased at a faster pace than applications. Hopefully the trend will continue.


Overall, 40+% chances to make it represent very decent odds (even though, as you have said, they do not apply specifically to OPMs). Yet I will keep this number in mind to help me cope with the numerous difficulties and uncertainties during this crazy journey.

Woohoo! A shoutout to my fellow 0.2% of matriculants 51 years or older!!!
