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

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!!

wait for your step2CK results. a few days will not put you behind too much. as long as the rest of your application is ready.

i took CK august 3rd. my oasis have been updated just waiting for the results.

Wait for the CK results - as noted above, as long as your application is in in the earlier part of the season, it will not make a difference to wait a couple of weeks. The early bird does not necessarily get the worm (ie, just because you applied on 9/1 doesn't mean that your application will be reviewed any earlier or have a better result).
