I got my secondaries in kind of late, but all before the deadlines I was given. I've been waiting patiently, but of eleven schools, I've only heard back from four, with three invitations to interview.

Do I have any hope of receiving more invitations to interview? Have I done something wrong?
 
Yes I'm sorry to say you did something VERY wrong. You WAITED and turned in your secondaries late. This DRASTICALLY reduced your chances of getting accepted. Most schools work on a rolling admissions basis which means that they start accepting people soon after they start interviewing. As the school fills up its spots it becomes more and more stingy about giving them out.

I'm sorry to say that if you haven't heard from a school regarding an interview by now...you most likely won't hear from them.

Some schools are already done interviewing, and most have already given out all of their interview dates.

Unfortunately UCLA2000 is probably right. You probably won't get many more chances to interview, if any. However, with 3 interview invites, you probably stand a decent chance of being admited, even at this late date. You might have to suffer through a waitlist, though.
 
finch interviews till may, i could see you having a chance there.

i hope you applied there
