Should I apply to University Programs?

[js007]

I am a DO student with scores of 246 (Step1) and 231 (Step 2). I have a few Psychiatry research experiences and one poster presentation, but NO Publications. Residency Explorer shows that my Publications are below the publication range of matched applicants at these University programs which probably means that every matched candidate in these programs has published.
Does this mean that I have no chance to interview/match at these University Programs and I should not even apply there?

That number is an average. So there are ppl who matched below and above that number. It’s fine so as long as you have something in that category.. Apply to the university programs you are interested in.
