Hello All. I've been reading these forums and I've seen a million of these "competitiveness" threads - but mine is for real! I have recently convinced myself that Rad Onc is for me and I need some tips to make the dream a reality! I don't have 250s, AOA, or a ton of research - aka I'm just a regular med student
Numbers:
MS3 - at HBCU med school (minority)
A's and B's in rotations
Avg (220s) USMLE Step Score
Master's in Neurobiology
Research - unrelated to Rad Onc, 1st/2nd year of school. No real pubs
Plan:
I really wanna do RAd Onc, willing to do ANYTHING!!!
Step2 Aug - aiming for 230/240 is realistic
Harvard away (1st year Summer research there)
2 more aways (We can't start doing aways until Aug)
SO.... you guys have given such good advice over the years, I thought I'd give it a try. There's not really much time for me to get research, but I am not above kissing ass! ALL suggestions/feedback are welcome!!
