Hello!
I first want to apologize for making a "what are my chances thread" but I've been all tied up thinking about my chances at IM programs in the near future. My Step I score is 221 (I know, I know...not a 250 like everybody on this forum), I have honored one preclinical course, and I think I will honor one clinical clerkship in my 3rd year at best. I go to a top 15 medical school in california (sorry trying to remain somewhat anonymous). My research experience consists of a couple of published abstracts, 2 papers that haven't made publication (yet?), and two poster presentations..all of this work has been with one well known PI who will write me a great letter of rec. I have quite an extensive list of extracurricular activities, ranging from volunteer work to participation in sports as a player and coach.
My question is, with the above mentioned stats, what are my chances at landing a residency spot at a program like Cedars Sinai, or for that matter any so cal IM residency.
Thanks!
