How soon after the embassy schedules the interview do people usually get the email for the date? 

Mine took 11 days. It depends, as the email would be coming from NVC. I would say between 1 - 2 weeks the latest.

Others can also chime in on this as well.

We got our email about 7 calender days after CC....which reading from all the other ones seems about the norm.

CC: 30th May 2017

 

Has anybody with a CC in May had an interview scheduled in India yet?

If you analyze most recent complete profiles who had their interviews scheduled in "India" portal on VJ, you can see that people who get CC early in the month (1st or 2nd week) get their interviews scheduled in the same month. If your CC is in the later half of the month, you get your interviews scheduled the next month most likely.

 

Interviews are usually scheduled one month in advance.

 

CC: May 03, 2017.

Interview Scheduled: May 10, 2017.

Interview schedule notification via email: May 13, 2017.

Interview Date June 13, 2017.

 

You should most likely get your interview in July.

Good luck.

This is what I find confusing. Can we have our GP complete everything, then bring those results to the "medical exam"? 

having worked in a company where we had "specialist medicals" (i worked in the rail industry), I can totally understand why a GP can't just do the tests.  I saw so many who passed people for things they shouldn't have, and when they went to a specialised doctor who was approved for those medicals they came out with different results.  I paid $475NZ for my medical and I've done a dive medical for around $300 before also. These doctors do have specific training on what to look for on standard tests that  GP might miss.  It might be hard to see when you haven't been on the other side, and I too would rather not pay the money I did, but seriously some GPs just aren't smart enough for those tests and how to interpret the results.  Harsh but true.

Finally done!  My wife entered the US today at Houston airport.  She said it took about 5 minutes and was extremely easy!   

congratulations! I've heard Houston is an easy one ... I tried to get a flight via there lol, seemed so much quieter than LAX.  So excited your wife is finally with you :-) 
PS: thanks for your earlier congratulations too, I've been off the board for a week or so just getting settled in.

Are there any fees that need to be payed at the interview?

 

I feel like I am forgetting something :wacko:

My P4 letter came with a section on page one about fees, it named the fee amount, and had a tick box for having to pay that fee, then a tick box below saying "all fees paid" which is what they ticked for me. Your embassy should do something similar, and if not it might be worth contacting them.  You could also look at the country specific information for interviews .... there's a PDF for each country. 
You can use the drop down box for your country here. It may give more clarity. My understanding though is that the majority of the time you have paid all fees up to the interview, and the only one remaining is to USCIS which you can't pay til after you receive your visa packet after the interview. This is just the processing fee for your greencard.
