Worried - prividya

Hi,
I want to know , which one is important for residency programms?
Are they serious about no. of attempts or the marks. Please reply me with your experience, Thanks in advance. I got 78 in my step 1 and completed CSA but failed two times step 2 (67&71) & planning to do again in August. I want to know my chances of getting residency & what I can do to improve it. I have GC & working experience in US, graduated in 97. Please give your
ideas,Thank you all

Is it common to fail step 2 after passing step 1? I will be taking step 2 in sept. after passing step 1 also with a 70's mark on 1st attempt of step 1.
