so apparently after the match programs get a list of where all the candidates they ranked matched. I have a friend in one program who had access to their list. the last candidate that matched to them was ranked 41st on their list. I was ranked number 30 and i did not get matched. if the explanation of the algorithm on the nrmp site is correct, how could i have gone unmatched? also, there were quite a few people who were ranked higher than me who were also unmatched (not clear if they got finally secured a position after SOAP). if the algorithm was working correctly, then those people should have also matched somewhere. i ranked their program number three, but that couldn't be a factor right? unless the NRMP has been deceiving us all along with their so called algorithm.
I know i can still apply again next year, but with what has just been told to me, i have become very hesitant. i am so confused right now. do i have a point here or am i simply missing something?
