Most schools just expect you to pass it before you graduate, so it mainly depends on what specialty you are shooting for.

Most places require a pass before graduation. Some say if you have a low score on Step 1 doing well on Step 2 early might improve residency chances. My medical school requires that both CK and CS be completed by Dec 31st of your senior year (I guess to give time if you fail to complete it before graduation?)
