Interview Stats 2011, How many apps? How many invites? etc

Being a current resident with a very successful match, I think this forum is no benefit to any applicants at all. If you want to be helpful, post where you got your interviews, the strategies of how you approached the process, and how you would do it differently. Statistics like this are for sports, and I bet most of you posting here never had the opportunity to see their name in the homerun, or touchdown categories and feel the need to have some way to justify those years of not getting laid and being thrown into lockers.. so stop trying to be the tom brady of the ortho blogging world, it doesnt matter, and its not helpful for others who are in the process.

Dayum!

Well, you're probably right in that this forum is of no benefit to us, but its all we have!

On another note, what are people setting as their "Ok I feel I will successfully match" number? I've been looking at the charting outcomes data, and I'm not feeling as good as I'd like. I just want to hear other people's interpretation of the graph.
