hi...
I don't know how this happened but in the middle of my medicine rotation, I fell in love with anesthesia. I doing a rotation in a big hospital in NY and I got into talking with a few anesthesiologists and spent some time with what they were doing and LOVED IT.
My question is: I'm a Ross Univ student (Caribbean) and my step 1 score was 234/98. Do I have a realistic shot at matching into a good program? I ask because I don't know many people in this field and was hoping for some guidance. Is it within my reach? I'm not sure what the scores anesthesia residencies look for. I read that the average was around 220, but I'm assuming that may be a bit misleading in my case since most are US grads. Any advice would be awesome. Is there anything I can do in the next year to make myself more competitive.
thanks for all your help!
