Hello everyone,
I need advice from the Pathology residents and attendings in this forum. I am a US IMG with an average step 1 score (222). I will hopefully clear the CK and CS steps within the next 6 months. I am interested in Pathology as a career path. I did a Clinical Pathology elective earlier in the US and got 1 US LOR.
I have some questions please;
1- Would a good step 2 ck score compensate for my average step 1 score ?
2- Can anyone suggest a place to do an anatomical pathology observership (preferentially in Houston) / How to find a pathology observership in general as I am no longer a student ?
3- How can I make the best use of my 12+ months before the match to be a good candidate for pathology residency ?
Thank you!
