Just got SDN so I apologize if I'm making a SDN etiquette error by making a new thread. Couldn't really find specific thread answers. I don't really have an advisor for psychiatry so hoping to get some advice here.
Step 1: 234
Step 2 CK/ CS: July
School: MD School (low-mid tier, in NE region), but resident of Southern state (GA...long story)
Class Rank: Bottom Half
Grades in Clerkship: All PASS except psych (Honors), good evaluations.
AOA: No
Research/ Publications/ Extracurriculars:Normal extracurriculars, some clinical research with 2 poster presentations. No pubs. Non-psych related research.
Red Flags: No major red flags
Overview of where you want to end up: Would like to end up in NE program (preferably NY/Boston) bcz my spouse works there. Otherwise, also looking at West Coast programs specifically California because of family in that region.
Would really appreciate some advice regarding what programs are possible for me in those regions based on mediocre grades and average application otherwise. I'm not sure what programs are too high of a reach for me. Would Cornell, NYU, Columbia, Mt. Sinai be worth applying to?
Thank you so much!
