Hello,

I just got my Step1 score and got a 223. I would like to know what my chances are at lower-tier programs. My top choice is Geisinger, as that is where I am from and want to return to after medical school. I am an MD student. Thanks.

Looks like 222 is the realistic number for bottom tier programs. You have a shot. Apply to the new programs and bottom 25. I think you will match.[/QUOTE]

Where do I find list of "bottom 25"?

Look at other form posts there is no “list” it’s very subjective. Any University of X will be at least mid tier. You are looking for more off-the-beaten-path community programs.

Your chances are pretty good at a lower tier program (bottom 1/3). I think you will Match.
