Guys, I know it is a silly q but, I read about cheking match directory and see how many spots has every hospital for the match. The difference between Freida and match spots are prematch. It's logic. But these are spots for last year , aren't they? So , actually, what we can check is if they offered any prematch last year.

what exactly is your question? didn't really see one in there...

If the question was about the match directory being from last year, yes it is from last year...I think you meant to ask something else though...you should probably clarify it ...

It basically gives you a picture of what programs like to prematch and how much % of the seats go to prematch.

Do you have the website which lists how many spots are available through match for each program... the "match directory".... I can't seem to find it online...
THANKS! smiling face

1. login at nrmp.org
2. click on directory (upper left)
3. choose your program (e.g. categorical), and State
4. Click Submit
5. you'll get a list of programs on that state and the "QUOTA" ...which are the positions that go to the match...
6. Compare with number of positions on program website, or Freida. ( http://www.ama-assn.org/vapp/freida/srch/ )
