Your application was submitted a little bit late so you have to expect that you'll probably hear from programs later than other medical students.
I'm a foreign grad and I applied early but have gotten only one interview. I just sent out my dean's letter yesterday so I'm hoping that more will come once the programs get that dean's letter. Do most PM&R programs wait until they get a dean's letter with FMG's before sending out interview invites? Any FMGs that have matched that could shed some light on the process? I also only applied to 22 programs, should I apply to a lot more even though it is a little late? Thanks
I just got the last of my LORs in last week and I finally got a couple more interviews. I think many programs are waiting to get everything - all the LORs and Dean's Letters. I have 7 interviews so far in PM&R, 2 for my transitional year(Which is worrying me)
Hope this helps - I would check the ADTS section in my ERAS to see if all your documents are complete

Thanks for your response. Actually there has been a flury of activity in the past week. I've gotten 6 more interviews which makes it a total of 7 now. However we are exactly in the same boat as far as the Trans year is concerned. I've gotten only 2 Trans year interviews as well! Can just two interviews be enough I wonder? I might break down and apply to some preliminary medicine spots. Have you thought about scrambling into a Trans year? I wonder if it will be relatively easy to do so, what do you think?
Cheers
last year, my interview invites started coming in october and kept coming through mid-january. as far as TY invites go, i'd apply for prelim med spots as well. you don't want to have to scramble, it's VERY stressful. though even after scrambling for a TY, i received a few calls through mid june from programs that still hadn't filled. moral = don't leave anything to chance!
