Unfortunately no I haven't heard back from them. But I just have to keep going.

I’m surprised. Your stats look good. How was your gre? That level 1 trauma experience is pretty rare from what I hear. Hope you get the call soon. I spoke with someone from the FSU program that said they really look for candidates with tenacity, drive and ambition; strong will-power. I think they would rather take on someone that knows how to deal with the stress of impending failure and moderate grades than someone with great grades and no experience struggling with challenge.

I surely hope so as well. I did about average of my GRE. V 150 Q 153 W 4.0. I am hoping either way to hear back so I could know my areas of improvement. But I agree with what FSU told you and hope for the best somewheres.
