4 callbacks is probably as good or better than the average number received by people in your grade range last year. 6 from below the median is definitely better. I don't know anyone who landed that many last year from the bottom half of the class.

didnt think of this before, but maybe the 28 day rule is increasing the number of callbacks, but not the number of offers?

might incentivize firms to give out more callbacks. if they give callbacks to the most competitive students and also to the less competitive ones, and give offers only tot he most competitive, they need only wait 28 days (or possibly less) before having to decide on their less competitive callback recipients. The 45 day rule, in the past, might have required firms to dip back into a pool of recipients who likely took offers elsewhere, causing the firm to interview and take in substantially lesss competitive people in order to fulfill needs or to hire 1Ls, who are not as predictable with respect to fulfilling those needs (less certainty that theyll come on board when they graduate, also even more difficult to predict hiring needs 3 years in advance).

PSA: median CCN is where you can differentiate yourself the most/enhance your results the most by being a good interview. Learn 5 things about the work the firm does before your cb that your classmates probably don't know (e.g. most noteworthy recent deals/cases, recent big-name lateral partners and clients they brought, etc.) and ask smart questions about them. If you get your interview list beforehand, try to find out what stuff your interviewers have worked on and ask them about it. The more you seem interested in them and generally excited to work at the firm, the higher your success rate will be. Avoid purely negative subjects (e.g. big name partner lateraled out) b/c you don't have the grades to win points for caution. Smile a lot and put out as many good vibes as you can.
