You have 12 interviews. You don't need any more. There is still plenty of time to get more interviews, but you don't need any more. If your dream programs come through, and allow you to drop one of your others great. Otherwise, you are just fine where you are.
Here's the thing, many programs get annoyed by LOIs. That's a risk you run by emailing them. It may backfire on you, and if you have an app that they were waiting on inviting you for, and you annoy them by emailing and hounding them, it may have the opposite effect you want. LOIs won't help everywhere, and may only help at some places. So why do some people get advised to send them? Well, if you are sitting on say 4 interviews right now, and LOIs do help at SOME programs, what's to lose at that point. But if you are already in a good position, chances are you still may get an interview at those dream places. Personally, I wouldn't risk annoying them at this point. If you want to email in December if you haven't heard from them, then great, at that point there's little to lose.
Got it! Thank you for your advice!
