sorry, got home half an hour ago; I got FP interview at Providence-Olympia, WA, Group Health, Seattle and Franklin Square, Baltimore; probably I'm gonna go to all three but I like Baltimore the best (great review on scutwork) and of course, I like the best IM smiling face

but so far just one interview there.

It depends on what programs. My wife and I are in couples match and will not have any LoR's downloaded until Monday (hoping tomorrow). All of our programs downloaded what we have but that is about it. We have 1 interview. So, it just depends on the program. I would not be too worried for FMP.

The place i did a rotation is currently interviewing AMGs, usually this pgm interviews Carribean grads in later Dec, and Jan, and other FMG towards the very end of the season. So, basically FM pgms ARE interviewing, just not the FMGs, yet. there sames to be a hard fact that most FM pds have not get a handle on, the AMGs are not enough to fill their pgms, and they need to interview more FMGs.
