After applying to 110 IM programs with scores of 92/98/pass/ All 1st attempts /2 months USCE/2USLOR I got only 1 interview. St. Barnabas! After all the efforts we invest towards these exams, does that 1 interview even make sense, friends ? It's not that I applied to hi-fi programs... (Community>Univ) It's not that interviews aren't being sent out from the ones I applied to... (Eg; St Francais) It's not that I don't have good scores... It's not that I have no USCE... Does my not taking Step 3 make such a HUGE difference, when I have mentioned to the programs that I am OK with a H1 or a J1? This is driving me CRAZY

Calm down, relax, stop breathing fast. Most of us are in similar situation. The direct derivation from above statement is that its too early to conclude anything.

Rocker, Pardon my anxiety. It only manages to rise as each day the sun sets to leave behind the dark, ugly and un-clickable "no new messages" on ERAS. And the only while it turns RED is when some one either says we got your $25 or that we got your $25 and we won't give ya H1 anymore (you sure know what I am talking about)

IT'S STILL EARLY!! Yes, I yelled. I don't often yell, but it's too early to panic.
