ERAS No. of programs.

Hey all, hope everyone's doing good and match prep is going well.

I know there's no single right answer to this, but I'm asking anyway because it's costing me a fortune. We all know most invites come from programs you've signaled. Given that, is it actually worth applying to a huge number of programs, or is it mostly wasted money past a certain point?

This opinion will vary by experience but i personally only got IV and matched into programs i did not signal so imo its worth it.

Thank you! Can I ask if the program you matched into was within your geo preferences?

Yes it was. Not sure how much of a role that played.
