Advice on August Status & School Selection

[DMDDDSHopeful]

Should I add any more? How about UNLV? So far I have 0 interview offers and what seems to be soft rejections from Case Western (application under review for future interview), University of Buffalo (continued review status), UNE -- First batch submitted 6/24 and received no supplemental from UNE so that's why I think that, and NOVA (no interview offer within 1 week of submitting supplemental--which seems is what the turnaround time is for most on here)

Stats: 3.5uGPA / 3.9 gradGPA (informal postbacc Masters w/ thesis)
DAT: 19AA/19PAT/22RC
Hundreds of hours of community
Shadowing for several years
Research & publications

So far I have 0 interview offers

It's the first week of August. I didn't receive the bulk of my interviews until October. You're going to have to hang in there. This process is one giant waiting game.

No northeastern schools have even sent out interview invites yet.

Way way way too early to be worried about interviews. Some places on your list interview well into May! Some haven't even begun to give out offers.
And Dr. Chuck at Case said that email is NOT a soft rejection. It just means you didn't get chosen for the very first interview group!
