chances for ACGME EM program

[itsgottabe]

step 1: 189
step 2: 224
My scores are not impressive at all but what do you think my chances are for EM programs? I have been doing audition rotation and I think I'm much more impressive in person than on paper. I would be able to get a good SLOR.
But what do you think my chances are with these scores?

The 224 isnt horrible. But the step 1 score is a bit low. You may be one of those people that needs to audition in many places to prove you are great. Some programs may screen you out based on scores before they even read the rest. Best Advice is: You still have a chance, but it wouldnt hurt to get great SLOEs from good programs, and to audition at a lot of places you are interested in.
