Hi,
I am planning to take my Step I in this May and I realized I do not have a concrete score objective for the exam. So, I'm hoping you could help me.
I'm in Turkey, this is my last year of med school, I am an intern now and I want to be a surgeon. General surgery, plastic surgery or neurosurgery are what I want. Plastic surgery is the main target though.
I do not have any US clinical experience (not expecting to have), no LORs, and at the moment I do not have any published articles or any research experience but I helped one case report and one retrospective study, so I might have these two to show. But I am not 100% sure if my name would show up in these articles.
What score should I get to have a chance at being matched to one of my desired residencies? Both Step I and Step II scores, if you can please.
