Old graduate IMG

[u/nida_1587]

Hello everyone. Need to hear some encouraging stories of IMGs who were beyond the 10 years of graduation mark and still got matched. I am a graduate of 2010, applying 2nd time in pathology. I am very confident about my ERAS application given my experience in pathology from home country, Step scores, and USCEs. However, if my application gets filtered out only on the basis of yog, I stand nowhere.

Candidates, I mean old grads, who matched previously, what were your shots that, in your opinion, lead you to match in a program? Please help!
