i mean, ur clinical experience, research or publications. moreover ur application ie ur clinical experience(preferably usce) needs to be focussed on the specialty u r applying to, since u r an old grad. u can definitely do a lot within the year if u apply for next year. hopefully u will get some iv for this match. take care and all the best.

I think it also depends on which programs you applied. if your just want universities based programs, it may be more difficult. but if you aim to more community based programs it can be easier. you can always work on your cv to make your chances better to what you desire.

this guy has an iceberg's chance in hell of matching without some kind of connection.
old grad, no usce, and a repeat in CS. Because you failed your CS first, I'm going to go ahead and assume that you suck at english. That won't be good for the interview.
save yourself the torture of the matching process. you already know it's going to be fruitless...
