Hi everyone,
My specialty requires a PGY-1 year and I will be participating in the MD match as a 4th year DO student.
I keep hearing that prelims and TRIs are getting more and more competitive as the years go by and I wanted to know if my USMLE/COMLEX scores would put me at a disadvantage for matching into one of theses types of programs. I have my eyes set on some TRIs near home but I know that these are difficult to get.
Step 1: 230/564
Step 2: 237/599
What is the best strategy for applying to these programs? Do I only stick with allopathic prelims/TRI or am I able to also apply to osteopathic ones? I hope this makes sense!
