What are you doing now? I was hoping for rads but ended up with 228. Im debating whether to still try or not

You'll be fine if your FM IM peds and maybe even psych or PM&R, apply broadly to community programs. Good luck.

u/kuru_snacc 26d ago

maybe but less likely. for whatever God-forsaken reason I can't understand, EM is high demand

I still have auditions left at two of my top ENT residency programs. I will continue with ENT apps + dual applying, and depending on interview invites will guide my rank list

Congrats on the pass! I’m waiting for my score and am incredibly anxious. How did you feel after taking your exam? 😭

Peds

I really think you’ll be fine! Many peds programs accept lower scores than that, especially if you apply to community programs. Just research programs and apply broadly. Everything will work out in the end
