If you were selected for first round interviews and there were only 12 time slots to choose from, does that mean only 12 people made it to first round interviews? I always assumed banks took about 50 people to first round interviews.
Also, does anyone know how many people usually make it to superday?

For one school, 12 seems about right. 0-2 of you will make it to the superday, maybe 3 if they're feeling generous.
They may split the group into two interview rooms. So, if there are twelve slots, then 24 people will be interviewed. This has occurred with some BB's who have come on campus. Or, it is possible that you are just one of the lucky 12.
Depending on location, they will probably take 2-3 to the superday.
I'm sure it depends on your school (e.g. is it a straight feeder to banks?). But 12 time slots honestly doesn't mean anything as multiple interviewers may be there. From my own experiences, I would usually arrive 10 minutes before and meet 1-2 other people interviewing at the same time.
