As you can see, unlike shopping at COSTCO where the more you buy, the cheaper it gets, ERAS gets MORE expensive as you apply to more programs. An IMG generally applies to around 30-40 programs (depending on the specialty & their scores). Be realistic about which programs you would GENUINELY have a chance to get into and would really consider going to. Keep in mind for each program you apply and are granted an interview, you'll be incurring costs of travel on TOP of what you'd pay ERAS for the application to that program.
