Hey everyone - couple questions:

1) I am a US MD - I cannot book a Step2CS date until November - which means I will not get my score back until February. Is this going to be a problem? Do most programs want to see my CS score before offering interview?

2) My Step1 and Step2CK are both in the mid 230s. Passed/High-Passed everything in med school. Has a first-author poster in Psychiatry, and 2nd author paper in Neurology. Took 1 semester LoA due to death in my family and had to travel overseas - so graduation delayed by a year. Am I competitive for mid-tier programs in the Mid-west like Nebraska, Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, SLU...etc?

Thank you!

It isn't possible for everyone to snag a date before ERAS submission. You're fine.
