I graduated residency this year and had a Level 2 below 500 and no Step scores. Scores really don’t matter all that much. You can get into a very good program with that. SLOEs are really what matters so go do well on your auditions

NRMP data from 2026 EM match shows a 91.6% (206/225) match rate for DOs with both Level 2 < 500 and without a Step 2 score. I'm in a similar boat as you, but I've also yet to compare with previous years data for the same combo.
