Med School: US MD - low ranked school in NE
Step 1: 250+
Step 2 CK: Not taken yet
Rank: most likely 2nd quartile
Clerkship grade: H - medicine SubI, psych, HP - IM, Surgery, ObGyn, P - peds, FM
Research: 10 posters/pubs/papers (4 papers, 1 is 1st author), 2 1st author papers in the works.

Wondering what my chances are at academic programs on the East and West Coasts (CA-native)
Super reaches - Stanford, UCSF, Columbia, Cornell, Harvard programs
Reaches - UCLA, UCSD, UW, Yale, NYU
More realistic - California community programs, UCI, UCD, Tufts, BU, GW
Had a similar profile to this. Though your step score and research are good, HP in medicine at a non-top tier school will limit you. UCLA and UW would probably be in the 'super reaches' category but you should be in good shape for your 'more realistic' list.
