Delayed Step 2CK result and Sept 1st dead line (Help!)

[kemc]

Members don't see this ad.

I am an FMG, who had passed the step 1 (87 / 214) and took the step 2CK on August 8th and was supposed to get the result on Aug 30th. As you guy might know that any one who took the CK between Aug 3rd and Aug 15th will not have their results till Sept 13th (per NBME). That's when I will be getting my result for CK.
I have done all the prep work for my ERAS and have everything ready besides LORs and now CK result.

I have two part QUESTION:
should I apply to programs right now or should I wait for the CK results.???
I know for AMGs, they can apply to programs even without CK result. FMGs can do this too, however, PRACTICALLY speaking would I be considered by the program without CK result if I apply to programs today (sept 1st)???? OR should I wait for my CK results and then apply tp programs which would be Sept 13th ???
will it not be bit late, as most students apply on sept 1st????
also, I am taking CS in Sept 11th......

Thanks!!

programs will need your step 2 score to rank you, but its not essential to get an interview. So u should apply on sep 1.

I took mine on august 6th and got the results on the 31st-so its not necessarily true-you can check teh nbme site to see if your scores were released-it is every wednesday that they release new batches. gluck
