Hi Everyone, not sure if anyone has experience with this or have discussed this with program directors but, recently got new step II CK scores back. Re-transmitted scores on ERAS, some but not all programs have downloaded the new scores, should I send an update letter to make sure they're in my file? I ask because the new scores should hopefully bump my app.

No...don't do this. Programs who haven't downloaded your updated score just haven't logged on since you updated it. Some places do this daily, others a couple of times a week, others just when somebody remembers they haven't done it in awhile. As soon as they log on, your scores (and the likely hundreds to thousands of pending documents from other applicants) will be automagically downloaded.
