Dear Sir'
I recently recieved my scores back from step 1 of the USMLE I am wondering what minimum score I need to be considered for a competitive program like Plastic Surgery?

Depends on where you are from and if you are AOA and what your grades look like. I'd say around 230, but I'm not sure. I never quite got that 230.
