I feel you man. I know people on this forum think I'm a jokester but to be real, I had 20 interviews which I went to. 3 of the programs never invited me to a second look which means they didn't rank me, and another one I screwed up very badly so I technically have 16 "viable" ranks. My scores are 21x step 1 22x step 2 step 2 cs passed all on first step. 2016 grad. U.S. citizen. I hope to god I match

@peterchao: Was your application geared towards FM?

[ArchivalUser]

Yes I attended fm conferences and made contacts. That's how I got most interviews. My application was geared towards primary care.

@cadet123, I have pretty similar credentials to yours so far (except I still need to take Step 2 exams). All the rest is the same, so it makes me happy to know you got 20 IVs, assuming you're not just messing around as usual. Which specialty were they in?

@peterchao: Oh okay. Yeah my application was mixed so that I could apply to multiple specialties. In retrospect, I regret not getting an FM specific letter because I would have gotten more FM interviews, even though FM isn't the field of preference.
