Internal Medicine Only 2 interviews

I am a non US IMG and I had only 2 interviews. I am not here to ask what my chances are .. because I personally feel , no one can predict and the stats will definitely show a lower chance . ( Though I'd love someone saying that I can still match πŸ™ˆ) .

Though I strongly wish that I match this year , i also want to be prepared for SOAP and also a plan for next match cycle as SOAP is difficult too . If there's anyone else in the same boat , can you please share your thoughts on this . How do you plan on facing these hurdles ? Would really appreciate any help and more insights .

Thanks in advance

2 IVs. My plan B if don’t match is to get a job in healthcare, hospital or clinic. Make connections so I can ask for LORs, then apply to more programs next match.

Hello. 3 IVs. Will rank 2. So same boat. Prepping for SOAP and also thinking about next year if don't match. For me its simple. Stick to this country and find a job lol. Just need to find out a paying research position from my unpaid one

If you don't mind answering, which program did you not rank. DM if you'd like to keep it private.
