Question about rank lists: Does ranking a program lower on your rank list affect your chances of matching at that program at all? For example, let's say there's program A and B and I prefer program A but think it will be harder to match to than B. Now let's say that program B ranks me as #5 and student B as #7 and student B ranks program B as #1. Also, let's say I rank program A as #3 and program B as #8. Let's assume that I don't match with any program before #8. Will I still match with program B over student B despite the fact that student B ranks it higher than I do yet program B ranks me higher than student B? I know this sounds like a algebra word problem, but I was trying to make clear the hypothetical situation was Thanks!
