am I going to match?

no problem.. glad to be of service.. hopefully we'll cross paths on the trail!

im a resident at pitt and got to look as some of the applicant whom got interviews. There is no doubt that board scores are high across the board but that is really just one part of the process. Personal statements letters of rec all shed light on type of person you are. One thing for i know we look for is people whom are cool under pressure. So on your interviews dont stress. You cannot worry about things that are not under your control. Be yourselves just relax and present yourselves accordingly. Being hungry and coming off weird or desperate dont come across well. Guys I know its stressful, but you already put the work in step 1, clinical rotations, ortho rotations. Try to enjoy the process, have faith in the most high and things will work out. God bless and good luck in the match, you all will get there if its what you truely want.

I'm curious what the highest board score was that you saw...?

By "most high", to you mean the chairman of the department?

The highest Step 1 from last year that I heard of was in the 280s.

Highest from people I know is 280 for step1. Hope this helps.
