really surprised! is psychiatry becoming that much competitive! may be you didnt apply to too many programs, because I dont see any point why you didnt get any calls, your scores are OK for psychiatry , the only two drawbacks are an attempt and being old graduate , and unfortuantely thoses really hurt.
