Want to solicit some thoughts regarding my application and gauge my competitiveness for this year. My step 2 score is pretty average for ophthalmology when we look at the most recent cycle and a PD from another institution had said 260+ are now more common than ever. My class ranking/clinical grades puts me in the middle, and 0 away offers thus far (applied to 4, 1 rejection).
Step 1: Pass
Step 2: 256
Clinical grades H/HP/P: 4/1/2
T20-30 medical school with home program
Research: years of lab research experience, overall a good mix of lab, clinical, and health disparities research
Publications: 12 accepted (3 first author), 5 more submitted in review (2 first author)
Abstracts: a little over a dozen, half of them first author
Letters: all 3 in ophthalmology, 2 are full professors
ECs: community vision health with emphasis on uninsured and immigrant populations, significant teaching experience
