Hi guys! Can you please help me to re-assess my chances of getting an interview and matching into residency? I am desperate, as I have applied to 90 programs and still (mid-October!) have NO interviews...I am IMG, have MD and Ph.D. I am a US postdoctoral fellow now, conducting the largest today's observational research in psychopharmacology. YOG>8, Step 1 - 216 , Step 2CK - 219. Still waiting for my Step 2CS result, thus, no ECFMG certificate can be generated yet...I applied mostly to Neurology programs, also to 10 programs in IM-Psychiatry and IM. I was practicing Psychiatry in my home country and have extensive research background there and in the US (>70 publications, international awards, was a principal investigator in my own project, etc.). I was hoping my outstanding research background would compensate for low USMLE scores, but now I guess the chance for an interview is very very low...
What do you think are my realistic chances to get an interview? Thank you!!
