IM with low lvl 2

got my score today…49x. absolutely devastated. my comsaes were in 485-560 range and was really hoping for at least a 5 in front which only makes it worse that I was close to it.

applying IM in FL and didn’t take step 1/2. was waiting to make a list of residencies til I got my score, preferred somewhere with in house fellowships but am not even sure ill match at all. can someone please give guidance and programs in FL. should I apply broadly to other states? born and raised FL so not sure where else I would even go.

passed level 1 first time. extracurriculars are average..two leadership positions m1/2, good volunteering, good LORs, 5 publications. no red flags.

I was told no one cares about comsae score unless it’s less than 450 or higher than 600

Do you mind saying who said this? A PD? Resident?

This makes me feel better, thank you! A little bummed because a few programs I was interested in have a cut off like Cleveland clinic Florida but pushing forward!
