My stats are step2ck:270 step 3:254 almost 4 months of hands on usce with good lors 1 low impact publication. Non us visa requiring.
So with that in mind, i dont want to overshoot with my application because I know that top tier programs want non visa requiring, research heavy applicants. Buts realistically what should my approach be, which programs should I be applying to.
I know of a few agencies such as doctoradamhoward and Class Act Match Consulting and they provide services surrounding the ERAS match application, PS review, and IV prep. As someone who was denied a visa and has no USCE or research, could their help help me highlight whatever good is left in my profile?
My stats:
YOG 2023 (last year as a recent graduate) and this is my first cycle
Step 1: first attempt
Step 2: 26x
Visa req obviously
Any residents or people in administration who can comment
about are there programs who use step 3 filter before they
apply step 2 filter for IMGs? As there's no other way to
compensate for low step 2 than getting a good step 3 or
building other parts of CV. For most IMGs its not possible to
do multiple observerships.. does step 3 help or not really if
application gets filtered already
