85 is not a bad score. It is possible to get a good residency if your CK score is good and the rest of your credentials are good, like having USCE, US LORs, research and past working expereince. Dont feel disheartened. You can still do a lot to buff up your CV

Dont worry, may be you were just unlucky on that day and hope that luck will favour you well in the next. Besides I am a strong beleiver that your scores are not representative of how good you really are?
