Seats left for off-cycle once the dust settles

From what we've seen during on-cycle thus far, any prelim thoughts on what % of classes will be filled from the on cycle process vs. holding some seats for off-cycle over the course of the coming months? Know this has been discussed here and there in the past, but not sure if things have changed as recruiting has shuffled a bit over the last year or two
