I answered your question on the other thread but here is the answer again

Green card pretty much give you the same situation as a citizen

avarage 90 are good

What is your situation concerning usce.
your best bet is preliminary in community hospitals where you can get a prematch

as for me I am a citizen but graduated from egypt I got step 2 ck score of 246/99 and ,waiting for step 1 score (which I expect to be 92-95 i hope cs coming next week

I already started applying and got 5 rejections (all but one from universities) and 1 interview from a community hospital for prelim + one weird from another hospital saying they consider me and I need to tell them If I am still interested I emailed them back and never heard from them
