What did I do wrong?

Hi. I am a full STEM major at a target school (HYPSM) with a mid gpa (3.5+), relevant experience, and diversity. I have only gotten one super day despite coffee chatting extensively at many BB, MM, and diversity coffee chat at EVC, as well as PE. I networked from nov to now

I have had associates themselves review my essay and say it look good, I’ve been told I’m personable and sociable. But I have barely gotten ANY interviews. My peers keep getting super days and interviews I am just not getting any. What did I do wrong?
