bingousmle - 06-04-10 14:38 well i dont want to discourage you but you you should weigh the pros and cons
if money is not a constraint apply to a bigger number
if you dont want to take chances apply to a smaller number
but no one can say about the number of IVs you ll get

Ye, u can apply even with only one score in hand.But, these days there r many applicants who apply as ECFMG certified applicants,so the compettion for interviews is quite high.It is always better to apply with all the three scores in hand.But, as this will not be possible for u so u may have to give it a try with only two scores in hand.
BTW, what is yur Step-1 score?
Good Luck!

Excellent score it is!
So, do not make any haste with other steps.Take them only when u feel fully prepared.Get a similar score on Step-2CK.Pass Step-2CS only on first attempt.
Also, do give it a try this year.
Good Luck!
