235 is a great score. What's done is done- don't dwell on it, just look and move forward. Get a higher CK score, pass CS on your 1st attempt, supplement your CV with a few clinical elective rotations in the US (if possible) and/or research and you will match for sure being a fresh grad!

235 is pretty good! Score well on Step 2 CK (aim for 250+) and that will make you look like a rockstar.

Also make sure the rest of your application is strong. Step 1 is just one tool used by programs to assess applicants :-)
