How many interviews is too many?

Masslou–Your nephew didn’t necessarily blow it, but he isn’t helping himself.

Case in point: My D1 didn’t submit her secondaries until early to mid September last year (12 schools). She only got 2 interviews–one of which was to the state med school which has a late deadline (Nov. 1) and didn’t start interviewing regular decision candidates until November 5th.

D1 only got 1 instant rejection (in under 24 hours!), and got 3 more rejections before Dec 15th. The rest of the schools simply held onto her application until May (one held her app until July!) before ultimately rejecting her.
