ok, this may sound totally cheesy...
but i think you can never go wrong with good manners. if you had a great interview, send a letter. if the program is in your top three, definitely let them know. most places are interviewing 10 for each spot. i don't see how it can hurt you to be polite, or even enthusiastic if it's someplace you'd like to train.

btw, i'm not blowing smoke. i sent notes to everyone who interviewed me. not brown-nosing "it was an honor to be in your presence" crap, just "i enjoyed meeting you, thank you for taking the time.." like my momma taught me.

cheers.

For what its worth....I am not sending any letters. Most of the programs I have interviewed at have said that they make the list right after we leave, so a thank you letter dosent matter. Unless, someone was very nice to you and you just wanted to say thanks for the sake of being polite. I highly doubt that a thank you letter matters in getting you matched.
