It could be your Step 1 score. Your step 2 score is excellent! Try to complete Step 3 and get some US LORs.

All the best.

dratl:

I find some hitch with your scores ( that might have filtered out your application)..
Having said that, I think they are competitive enough .. You can browse this forum and find several determined docs who despite having attempts in steps made it to the match!

My next query would be do you have publications? research experience? It can greatly boost your chances... Do tell us about it...

USLOR would be possible only when you work under some Doc in the US otherwise it would have less meaning to it...

I find your credentials good enough to compete for the match.
