Hello everyone !!

I have been an old member of this forum, pariticipated in ERAS last year and matched in University program for a preliminary position. This year I am reapplying but the response is even worse then last year. These are my credentials

Mid 90s step 1 & 2, CS pass, first attempt
Mid 80s step 3, first attempt
1 year USCE as a prelim resident, currenly in 4th month of training
3 publications
2.5 years since graduation
Fair medical school record (not excellent), alot of extracurricular activities / voluntary work
2 Strong recommendation letters and 2 average (3 american and one home country)

and beleive it or not I applied 105 programs, on 1 st september and got 3 rejections yet and NO INTERVIEW at all.

My question : WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH MY APPLICATION ? why no interviews ?
