Hey guys, I just got my step 2 score back today and it kind of flipped my world upside down. I got a 233 which isn’t terrible but lower than my Step 1 which was a 235. Now I know I won’t have trouble matching in general but I’m from NYC and would love to match close to home so I just wanted to know what my chances were. My application is otherwise very average I would say. Solid 3rd year grades (2nd quartile), have decent letters (one from my department chair) and I feel like I otherwise have no red flags. I’d appreciate any input

Depending where you want to match... One of my classmates matched Downstate with 210+/230+. Not sure whether or not Downstate is a strong program.
