Paeds - tulja

[ArchivalUser]

I am an old graduate working in Paediatrics in U.K. for the past 6 years.
Please can some one guide me what scores do I need to get into residency for Paeds?
I have got a fairly decent score in step 2ck and I am awaiting my step 1 score.
I shall be grateful for any information
Thank you

90+ are competitive and assuring. Many will say 85+ are okay.. but the fact remains that next year is will be more competitive. you should get as high scores as you can .no point in aiming for okay scores.

UK experience should count, but next year there lot of guys coming from UK.

over all application matters a lot for short listing and matching/prematch, although score are on the top of criteria.

good luck
