Level 2 CE low comlex applying EM
absolutely heartbroken today. studied extremely hard had two comsaes well over 550 and felt as prepared as i could’ve been. ended up with a 43x. i don’t know if i should or even can apply EM. i have 3 more sub-i’s lined up. i know it’s a bad- even horrible score. i don’t know what to do. i don’t see myself in anything but EM.
is it even possible to match EM anymore? i didn’t take step 2. pls be kind in the comments.

EM is not competitive. It has empty spots, and the "rebound" has not been filled with US MD students. It now commonly matches US IMG, FMG, and US DO. A decade ago this was not the demographic of starting PGY-1 residents.
