Late to discover neurosurgery |

I am currently finishing up my MS3 year and on my surgery rotation. Just finished my NSGY sub-rotation and absolutely fell in love. Really cannot see myself doing anything else. The problem is that I never considered this possibility before and don't really have any legit research to speak of.
I have a 255-260 Step 1, top 10% of my average-ranking SE US MD school, am junior AOA, and have great 3rd year marks. When it comes to research I only have 2 poster presentations on some basic science immunology stuff; no pubs.
Should I give up on the idea of NSGY entirely? Should I consider a year off? The idea of not matching terrifies me.
Thanks!

Should we be doing Sub I at reach schools or try for schools that may be more safety wise. And is there a range of schools for step score ranges. And are step scores all that matter?
260+: ?
240-260: ?
220-240: ?
Thanks!

Just wanted to know your thoughts on Yale program. I was unable to schedule a second look because my schedule was backed with other interviews and second looks. Would love to hear about second look experience commenting on the operative experience.

I remember years ago while on a subi, an attending told me that we celebrate each other like we were God's greatest gift to mankind, forgetting that we treat the sickest patients and our complications cause very grave consequences. As residents, we remember our complications, it hurts us deeply, but over time...we becone immune to it; being there, done that. He told me to always remember that and I thank him for it.
For the younger ones out there, remember as physicians....patients entrust their lives to you and as Neurosurgeons, they entrust their life to your every decision and hand motioln. Be smart, be humble, be caring and most of all get a good lawyer.
