Hey all,
This is my first post.
My question is this. We all know RadOnc is 'very competitive' but in terms of board scores what does that mean? I know from reading on this site that the applicant to spot ratio is about 3:1. And I know that research and good letters of rec are paramount. But people say you need a step 1 score of 240 plus-maybe this is correct but does anyone know of a place where I can find the average board score of those who matched. I'll be taking the step 1 in 6 months or so and want to know what my prospects are when I get my score back.
thanks,
rbo
