try to focus on step 2 diligently, if you can get score above 90 - that will help you recover the lost ground.

Being recent graduate, you have that advantage. Visa is other issue. If you go for J1 visa and are looking for IM, FM and/or Pschy you should be able to get through easily provided you have step 2 score above 90.
