I am a Canadian student and finished my application around late september, I applied to :
NYU, USC,Pitts,Coulmbia, UPENN, Boston, case western, temple (applied late).
DAT : 22 OC/ 23GC/ 23 QR/ 25 RC/ 19 BIO/ 22 PAT 22AA / 21 TS
GPA around 3.7

I have not received any interview invites at all. I also got an interview reject from case western today. I have doubt about one of my letter of recommendation, do you think this is the reason? Is my score too low for an interview at casewestern? Should I start worrying?
 
Your scores are definitely not the problem but applying as a non resident is probably hurting you a bit. Why didn't you apply to more private schools? I feel like you would have higher chances there as most public ones prefer in state or regional students. Also i have a friend who didn't receive a single pre December interview but got 5 post December and he applied late September.
 
Im Canadian. You have solid stats. I would say the reason is because you applied late. You generally want to submit mid august at the latest. I say you have a decent shot at a couple of interviews in janurary- march, your best bets would lie with NYU and USC because they started interviews quite late and NYU has a huge class size. You did apply too top heavy imo as a Canadian. Also if you say one of your letters isn't good, that maybe an issue. But there is still hope!
