Is it true that programs need a Step 2 score before they will rank you?
If you are an IMG, I am almost certain that programs will not rank you unless you've passed all the exams required for ECFMG cert...b/c if by rank list deadline in Feb you have not passed Step 1, 2 CK, and 2 CS, the NRMP will automatically withdraw you from the Match. I'm assuming that programs are aware of this.
I'm from a U.S. allopathic school. I wasn't planning to take CS for months (after match). Does CK have to be in prior to this too?
