Rising M3, just got my Step 1 results back. Here are my overall stats. Happy to provide any other info I may have left out.
Step 1: 239
AOA: No
Class Rank: Don't know, probably somewhere in 50-75%ile
School: Low-tier in the south. No significant ties to CA (Just a few family friends we occasionally visit)
Research: Did a project in orthopedics between M1-M2, likely to be published. Planning to get more during M3-M4.
Going to work on honoring IM and Peds, and obviously do as well as I can in all the other rotations. But I was wondering what I could do to make myself more competitive for LA programs in particular, and what programs (if any) were realistic for me to apply to? I'm really unfamiliar with what programs are considered "good" in the area but the ones that come to mind are Kaiser, UCLA, and CHLA. Any and all advice is appreciated.
