Mid tier allopathic MD
Step 1: <212
Step 2 (took July to try and overcome low step 1) : 255+
Third year: HP plus P during Covid times
Couple of case reports and posters and a journal article
Decent volunteering and leadership
3 solid radiology letters

I know the odds are pretty low because of my crappy Step 1 but any advice would be appreciated.

Currently an MS4 so I can't really comment on your chances. But I did just want to congratulate you on that Step 2 score. That's a hell of jump.

(I do think you have a chance given US-MD + Step 2; you'll definitely need to apply broadly, though.)
 
apply super broadly, but according to the NRMP interactive data based on the last 4-5 application seasons and MD students with your step stats, you have almost 100% chance of matching. Just apply to like every DR program.

Thanks man, I scored way lower than my practice tests for Step 1 on my actual test and definitely felt the heat for Step 2. Good luck to you this cycle as well!

Where is the interactive data? I just read the nrmp match data but that wasn't interactive. Thanks
