Hi everyone,
Congrats to everyone who matched! I just went through the most recent application cycle as well and was very happy to match where I wanted. As such, I have now turned my attention to prelim/TY programs. However, I am a little concerned because of my Step 2 (both CS and CK) timing. I was originally scheduled to have both scores reported by the time of the NRMP match, but due to a severe family illness this is no longer the case. It's possible the scores might be out in time, but it is more likely that they won't be. My question is, how worried should I be on a scale from "not concerned at all" to" totally freaking out?" The rest of my application is solid (260s Step 1, AOA, honors in everything) and the interviews went well, but would this make programs feel comfortable enough to rank me w/o Step 2? Is there any value in contacting programs to let them know what the deal is? Any input (especially input that makes me feel better) is very much appreciated!
Thanks!
