Long time lurker, first time poster. MD/PhD student with step 1 score = 213 wondering if there have been any updates to best practices for fixing this or reasonable expectations going forward since the last post like this (2014, I think). So far clinical interests are varied (IM? neuro?), while research interests are better defined (genetics, neurosci).
Burning question: Can I still aim to do research residency?
And much less urgent, but of interest: Is it even remotely reasonable to try to live coastal (preferably west)?
