Hey SDN, trying to see if anyone has insight on good reach places to apply to in NY, CA, FL. Obviously, most university programs are out the door.
A lot of programs have at least a 200+ usmle cutoff so I am having trouble finding resources on where to apply this upcoming year.
I have been studying for step II and hope to improve scores by a lot but who knows. Trying to play it safe.
Mostly average first and second year grades

So far I've been getting good evals on rotations but somehow got stuck with a B in IM (preceptor rarely gives A's and it was my first rotation). A's in everything else so far. One strong letter, working on another but will be from surgery chief at my hospital.
Looking for a couple good places that I can audition at in the summer/fall so they can see a side of me that is not just a number.
