I am a US citizen BUT a FMG applying for an Ortho residency. I applied to 60 programs but currently received 2 interviews with a USMLE 1 SCORE of 86 %tile and USMLE 2 84 %tile. Any advise? Do I have a chance?

Anyone willing to comment on the interview format? I think they've interviewed a few days already.

They have you interview with 3-4 attendings and one resident- usually a chief or R4. All were single person interviews. They do have a few foreign grads there, but they tended to be EXCEPTIONALLY good - i.e. fully trained ortho surg with numerous papers, or a guys with 270 board scores and AOA. They really seem to be looking for a good personality match, who will work well with the dept.
