So how can you know your competitiveness for residency? For example my step 1 score is really low - 210 - but I did well in my third year clerkships (High Honors in 4/6 clerkships, high pass in the other two). So I have a step score well below average, and I'm sure I'll be screened out at many places because of that. Which is fine, I'm not interested in the super top places anyway, but I'd like to go to a mid/low tier university program, which would allow me a decent chance at a fellowship (peds GI, ICU or peds oncology I'm thinking right now). I know it's an upshot but I have no idea where to begin in terms of narrowing my places and figuring out how competitive I am.
Is anyone else in the same boat - and how did you guys decide where to apply?
I don't have geographic restrictions (and I don't know my step 2 score yet - hoping to do better).
