wow dudes-how is everyone applying to only top 10 schools-I mean what if you dont mind me asking are your Step 1 scores? Geeeeez I am worried out of my shoes now-My PD at my program recently told me I have a great chance at matching with a Step 1-220 and a Step 2-216 but now that I see tons of you guys ONLY applying to top 10s-WTF dude-have I been lied to!!

If you apply only to top schools, don't be surprised when you are not matched.

 

[Analyzethis]

Well of course-I was not going to do that forsure-I was planning on applying to a few "reach" schools-a couple of the UC's but now I am thinking I dont have a prayer-does anyone know as far as psych goes is a 220 and 216considered upper end scores in psych applicants or bottom end or in the middle- I figured since a 216 is smack dab the national average which means its roughly the 50th percentile-you take out all the people doing more competitive stuff liek surgery, derm, anesth, ED, ortho etc-that takes out a fair number of the scores above the 50th percentile and added to that I saw an AAMC table that showed psych had the lowest Step score average of all specialities-i thought my scores would be good but after reading this board I feel like crap-utter crap!

i assume you are a US med school grad. psych has been getting a little more competive the last few years. but still 35% of all psych residents are IMGs. a US grad will trump an IMG anyday even if they had slightly lower score. that will put u in the top 2/3. and then if you had over 200 on the first attempt u could have a fair shot or better in all but the top 10-20% programs. now with your scores i feel u have a good shot at all but the top 10 or so programs (out of about 180.) even then i would not be too surprised if u get an interview at some of the top 10 considering u have good grades, lors, etc. a US grad with ur scores has a shot at everything but maybe derm, ortho and ophthal. psych is probably the 2nd least competitve field (although it pays more than other slighlty more competive fields😍.) you will get a program you will be more than happy with.

i am the IMG with scores lower than urs who is applying to 170 programs. My aim is to get atleast 30 interviews (i got a great cv and us psych lors.) If u applied to 170 programs u will get atleast over 150-160 interviews.

my advice: dont think twice about applying to those top programs. the only drawback to applying to them is 25$ each and a feeling similar to being stood up by angelina jolie.

Why is everybody so hung up on "the top ten" programs? I'm learning there are many excellent programs with superior training that are not on this so-called "top ten" list....

analyzethis, mine are not all top 10 (they may be loosely affiliated with a top 10, but thats not the same thing ...) some of mine are pretty competitive, yeah, im pretty confidnent that i WONT get an interview, but i figure it can't hurt to apply. i'll be in the city for rotations during oct and nov, so it wont cost me anything to travel, so i thought, why not. dont worry, im a DO and my step I is lower than yours, so you'll probably match better than me anyway🙂 also remember that the people on sdn tend to be smarter and more pro-active students- thats why they're on sdn. so sdn posters dont necessarily represent the average med student. i just started a rotation and met two third years who have never heard of sdn. if i hadn't heard of sdn, i probably would never have gotten into med school...
