Figure 3. Numbers of programs with each listed percentage reductions in numbers of interviews.

Histogram of the percentage reductions in interviews achievable for each of the 30 studied programs. Interviews would not be given to applicants with a 99% upper prediction limit for a probability of matching that is less than 10%. The square bracket indicates "up to and including" and the round parenthesis indicates "up to but not including." For example, the second bar means values greater than 6% and less than or equal to 12%.
