Does Step 3 helps in ranking? - csdoc456 - ArchivalUser - 10-24-2011 Guys I am confused, can sumone help me? Does step 3 help in ranking or just getting IVs? Plz reply.... 0 - ArchivalUser - 10-24-2011 Guess it helps in both...I am sure I dont deserve a single IV with my creds..but I have 7, so it sure helps in getting IVs. And as what i know from my friends who have matched..it sure helps in ranking too.. 0 - ArchivalUser - 10-24-2011 Thanks Morris81. if u don't mind wht was ur step 3 score? I mean good, average, bad? 0 - ArchivalUser - 10-24-2011 I am also preparing USMLE Step 3, Could you post your credential Morrisb81? Do u need visa? 0 - ArchivalUser - 10-24-2011 I scored ok, not too bad. 215 it is. and I do need visa.
