Hi NS. I’m so sorry to hear that your scores were below where you were hoping. Without knowing the scores/more about your background I can’t give much in the way of specific advice. You can use this article, though, to help with assessing where your scores would be relative to other people who matched: https://www.yousmle.com/step-percentiles/

I managed to score decently on Step 1 but had a drop off in my Step 2 CK. Scored well in my assessments but I guess I just had a bad day.
In light of all the changes happening, how much of a red flag is this on my application? Am looking to apply IM at a not-too-competitive place, hopefully in California. Should I give up on this pursuit? Or should I look at other ways to strengthen my application?
