well you have a handful of papers there and got only 2 ivs. perhaps you should recheck where you apply to

[ArchivalUser]

I applied widely, but I think one of the main causes (other than graduation date and CS trial) is that I applied with only step one and two scores (I was not ECFMG certified at the time of application).
Finally, thank you for replying to my post.

Your steps of course are solid. Your trouble spots are your yog and attempt on the cs. I would target your application to programs that don't have a yog cutoff. You got more interviews than 40% of applicants last year. Apply to where you observed. Push your clinic observer supervisor to call the program on your behalf.
I always advise against applying uncertified as programs usually don't give interviews to those that can't participate in the match. I won't even look at applications not certified.
