high and low yield interviews was created by hamstrung
Does anyone know how many interview spots are offered by certain programs? It would worthwile to know if program x interviews 200 for 2 spots and program y interviews 40 for 8. Specifically interested in Pitt (I've heard the offer a lot of interviews....?) and Georgetown (similar rumors).

Replied by on topic Rule of thumb: if x is
Rule of thumb:
if x is # of spots available, programs will interview about 10x(+10) people. so a program that has 4 spots will interview anywhere from 40-50 applicants.
you can look up FREIDA for exact #s from last year.

Replied by on topic I heard Pitt will interview
I heard Pitt will interview 100 applicants this year. I think they have either 8 or 10 spots, so it is about in line with all the other programs in terms of interviews/spot. This is just from friends of friends, but I dont think it is out of line.
