Realistically, not a great shot unless you have a letter writer who personally knows someone in a CA program and can call for you. Purely based on stats and achievements, you are below average for a DO applying for rads in CA.

Shouldn't stop you from applying, obviously.

The OP is a MD.

I would say reasonable shot to match somewhere in California.

Isn't it crazy with those super high stats , this student is below despite being one point below for the average for step 1 for matched rads and 260 which is 10+ for step 2 simply because he is a DO ? Thats insanxe.
