@totaa
Google "NRMP historical reports" then click on results and data 2015 PDF then you can see every program code and how many spots they have for first year , so when you search for surgery programs you can go by the codes and know which are for categorical and which are preliminary . The program's codes are 4 numbers then 440 that is for surgery and the a C for cat or a P for prel and one last number for example : 1104440C1 for prel surgery at Jackson memorial UM

More rejections:
Tuscaloosa College of Community Health Science Program.
University of Kansas
Total of 7 rejections so far. This is frustrating.

what's the point of applying to mid west if you don't know anyone there.. or if it's a certain race preference..
wyoming rejected

That's interesting. I didn't know anyone in the mid west , I would be considered racial minority and I matched in the mid west. The people here are super friendly , and super compassionate.
