it will be hard even if your scores are in the 230s, not to mention the below average scores. But, it doesn't mean you don't have a chance. work on your connections, your research, and your USCE. Meantime, consider psychiatry and pathology. IM is getting more and more competitive with so many people having 250+. FM usually requires short year of graduation, like within 3 years. good luck on your CS!

I am agreed with plsmtch. Let me tell you some further points. First of all you have to pass CS with first attempt. It is more important than Step 1, 2 or 3. When you are planning to take CS, talk to me I will give you some hints. Second you have to find some observation in some low rated program and when you get, again talk to me. Never loose the hope. I saw a lot of good score, genius but never got into residency and lot of people with low score are in residency. Our job is to keep on working.

@drabc2, I apologize for being late. Actually when you are in grip of bad luck, bad luck does not come as one drop, it showers like a storm. Like I was forced to resign then I got heart attack, someone damaged my VAN at parking lot, my computer got burn with my body static electricity etc.........................But we have to fight.

I am not good with these new technologies. If you are here in USA, you can call me or email me at : iluvyoumydear. However my Skype ID: PERVAIZ0812. You are always welcome. May God Bless You with Good Luck.
