So I will be very honest about myself...and I need some really solid real advice.
I've wanted to do primary care. I didn't match for 2 years straight now. I'm a US Citizen who went to a small Caribbean school. My scores are honestly on the lower end of pass. I failed Step 3. I have been out of school since the end of 2013. I passed Step 1, 2CK and CS all in my first attempt, but like I said, with passing scores on the lower end.
At some point before application season began last year, I experienced a change of heart and started to find psychiatry more appealing. However, before I could show my development of interest, application deadlines began to approach and I applied broadly to primary care spots and psychiatry.
I didn't match this year. I know there are less than 100 psychiatry programs out there. Should I decide to apply again, I would only care to match into psychiatry.
Given all that I said, can someone please give me some advice as to what can be done? What route should I take? Thank you.
