I just had a quick Question I applied to 17 md programs (all state schools and various private) all that had matriculant stats about my average (except 1) and haven't heard anything back in almost 1.5 months from any where. Is there anything glaring in my resume from what you can tell that would be keeping me from interviews? Or is it way too early to begin worrying that I have no IIs yet?
Thanks!

It is still early in the application season and interviews go on until March. I expect you will receive some interviews from your Florida schools with your stats.
 
It's still early. I finished a lot of my secondaries about a month ago and haven't heard back from any MD schools yet.

I think you are very solid, you just need to wait. Remember the Turkey rule - if you don't have any interview invite after Thanksgiving, then that is when you should worry.

Patience is a virtue, the need for instant gratification is not.
