Can you email program directors to take a second look at your ERAS application?

So I'm an average student (Step1/2 = 237/244) going for anesthesia but in 4th quartile. Our class ranking depends basically solely on clinical grades (where are then mostly subjective) - but aside from my 3rd year grades and ranking, I don't have any other red flags.

Since I'm couple matching, would it be worth emailing some PD regarding our intent and have them look again at my application (just updated my CK score).

- Can this be done at any time? Can this be done after you been rejected? :/
 
Yes, call and inquire. Especially if you added new info. Your couple may hold you back. After you are rejected, too late!
Any tips on what to say?

I have a bit of social awkwardness (probably contributed to my clinical grades/ranking).
 
If a program that you are highly interested in has sent invitations and u havent received one ( no rjection either) can you email them asking to look at your application?.
What would you include in such an email?
Should you email the PC or the PD
and no cv to be attached right, just AAMC id?
