Take Step-2CK first and score well in that too.Then u can do an externship or observership before u take yur Step-2CS exam so that it helps u pass Step-2CS exam on the first attempt.But rememeber u need also to practice with alive practice partner before u take the Step-2CS test.
U can e.mail the program coordinators of different programs regarding it or call them.Here is the link for various hospitals which offer externships:
