I applied for 10+ residencies for the 2013-2014 application cycle. I didn't match but I was lucky enough to obtain a PGY-1 position through the scramble. After I found out I didn't match, I did some major soul searching and I came to the conclusion that the reason why I didn't match was because I have poor interviewing skills (practiced questions too much, I sounded too rehearsed) and my presentation was weak. Other areas such as grades, leadership, research/publications were covered.
Should I apply for a PGY-2 even if I know I will probably not improve significantly?
I don't know if I can go through the emotional breakdown that I went through last match day again....
