Chances to match - tesbeckzss - ArchivalUser - 03-15-2019
So this is my story.
YOG 201
US citizen
Step 1 tried 2 times and I didn’t make it aNd I gave up this Journey but then I worked as a medical scribe and got the motivation to study again. Last year I gave exams again.
Step 1 200 step 2 210 no attempts, CS passed, step 3 232
I didn’t apply for match this year.
Any chance at all or should I give up?

You will be having chances for getting matched. You need to have continuous hands-on clinical experience in the specialty you want to match. Try to make connections it will help during the IV process.

If you want to do residency in US, then go for it. Dont give up. You have good Step 3 scores.
Which specialty you are looking for?
You need to gain hands-on clinical experience in US which will provide strong experience and can gain strong LORs. Also, you can make connections through them.
