Depends on your Step 2 score - keep in mind however that some univs have individual cut offs for each step

that is exactly what i want to know, do they impose the cutoff rules very strictly ? dont they read the whole application to check for a few other credentials ? like if i manage US clinical experience.... and moreover, my couple of research works and 2 more that im into, that should be over by the application time wont all this be taken into consideration ? and also if i score high on the step 2 and 3 ..... please advice me on how to increase my chances should i apply for a Prelim medicine program ? or transitional year ? the fact is i cant give my step 1 again and cant wait 7 years to get into Residency is it possible to enrol into a community program and then shift the next year or may be reapply through ERAS ? i understand the odds are against me, but is the game over with step 1 score ? i'll truly appreciate comments and advice
