I have had no interviews and I am now looking to apply to FM.
Are any family medicine residencies still reviewing applications and interviewing?
Can anybody suggest programs I should look into?
(It seems my scores were not the problem but rather timing and/or letters. I am working on rewriting my PS and collecting more letters now.)

Thank you.

Most FM residencies will accept applications up until Nov 1st (already passed), Nov 15 (passed), or Dec 1st. I get the feel that every FM residency has given out their invites and are only extending invites at this point after people cancel.

FM residencies do tend to be suspicious if all three of your letters of rec are from an outside field (optho, psych, peds, OBGYN, etc). However, beggars can't be choosers, so if you want to invest the $$$, I would apply broadly and hope an interview or two comes out of it. You could also match in SOAP. Otherwise, consider looking into a master's program or job for the next year, and re-apply.
