So, I have started preparing for next year's match. I started asking for letters of recommendations, trying to get some research/case report oppotunity, and getting started on personal statement.
What would be good website for radiology match (besides this forum of course)?
While we are at it, how competitive I would be? Do I have shot at radiology?
-going 30-35 ranked US school (research rankings)
-mid-240 Step 1
-Honors in Radiology rotation but Satisfactory in Surgery, OB, and Peds (only top 10% get honors at my school - 3 people per rotation), other grades pending - despite satisfactory grades, i had really good comments on my evaluations
-undergrad research that was continued into med school and published while in medical school (non-radiology)
-Good letters of recommendation (hopefully)
-no radiology research but trying to get case report/research right now
Specific Questions:
- Should I take Step 2 early?
- How much of an impact not having radiology research would have?
- Do I need Radiology Letter?
