If you have decent (but not fabulous) USMLE I and II scores (both in the 215-220 range) and the rest of you application and letters are on par, how much do publications help in the residency process?
Currently, I have 6 publications (4 of them as first author) in major sugery journals.
I've always heard that publications are important, but I've never know exactly how important they are when applying to academic programs. If anybody knows how much a publication record like mine can influence an application, please let me know. Thank you.
