No. why bad shape. those scores are just fine. You'll get a residency. Maybe not a really competitive one, but you'll get something

Hey Acinetobacter, don't think like that.
You have accomplished what was the most difficult, that is passing the exams. So, be proud and happy! Congratulations! Don't let a pair of numbers take away this joy!
About scores and residencies, theoretically and statistically, high scores would corelate with better chances of getting into a competitive residency.
I am pretty sure that is what the other person before me wanted to say, s/he meant to encourage you after all, I guess!
Anyway, I know people that have proven that the above statement is not 100% correct.
My point is, there is always a way, always. So be happy and proud and keep up the good work!
The best of luck to you!

don't worry, you'll get a residency, unless you're aiming for something such as dermatology.
many people would kill just to pass this exam, so be glad you passed. no matter what score you got. at the beginning of my study i was aiming for the 90s, then in the middle of my study discovered most of my flaws. right now, i just wanna get over this exam and hope that it will never come back to haunt me again. wish me luck :wink:
