I'm a 2nd year student at a different medical school than UofT, what should I to increase my chances of getting matched to UofT IM residency?

(Posting here because I feel like you guys would know more about what a 2nd year should be doing as he goes into clerkship).

I've made good research connections at my school and I got a couple small first author papers in low impact journals, my ECs are pretty basic but I'm not doing nothing. I'm working on more research hopefully 1 more in a slightly higher impact factor and another where I'm not a first author.

Problem is I have no connections at UofT whatsoever! I've heard CaRMS is all about who you know, and I know no one.

So what can I do? Is it good enough to impress during 4th year electives? Should I be pursuing connections right now? Perhaps try to initiate research with a GIM faculty at Uof?

What would you do if you were me?

Thanks for any advice!!
