hi! i know exactly how you feel. this coming matching season will be my 2nd attempt. i've done observerships too. right now i'm involved in clinical research. i've been really lucky with that. i think you should try to volunteer in some good research. while clinical experience is definitely important. PD's also look at research, especially in university programs. Good luck!!

your credentials are good with the icing that you have EAD... How many IVs yuo got last 2 times?...

work on your interviewing skills and aim for fresh and better LORs.... cant see a reason why your credentials would not attract IVs.. unless you are going only for Uni programs..

Good Luck and apply sensibly...
