What kind of Board scores does and IMG(St.Georges) need to get a Surg Res in NY?

[HEME-ONC]

I am currently applying for a surgical Residency in NY? I am an IMG from Grenada. I scored 210 step 1 on the Boards. Do I still have a shot at a surgical Residency?

On the Caribbean board you say you are applying for IM all over NY.Are you applying as well for Surgery?

You also seem to be confused about prelim and categorical. which one are you asking about?

 

[HEME-ONC]

No, Just surgery.
My bro is also applying but for IM or Anesthesiology. He just used my laptop to post it.

I am asking about Categorical.
Thanks

210 is a bit low then. Depending on your grades and recommendation letters and your audition rotations and the program you're applying to, it's possible.

Of course it's been a few years but that's what I recall. Good luck.
