hi i am also from india but curently in minnesota sailing in the same boat as yours . am planning to take step 1 in april . where did u read anatomy , physio and b.cham from and which other books do u plan to follow ?

Step 1 covers much more than the classes you've already taken, including microbiology, pharmacology, pathophysiology, ethics, and behavioral science. I don't know what year in med school you are, but US med students take the test after completing all of the basic science years (after completing the 2nd year).
