Hey friend- the more you have ,the better the chances of being called for interview.So certification etc surely helps. But you can apply and see if you get lucky- your step 1 scores maybe good enough? Even if God fobid you fail, this will come in play reg the match- you ll lose the money you spend in applying- but nothing else.
You can wait too- some programs have nov 1 deadline,some dec etc- so scout well and apply only to those programs then.All the best.

Hi:

Can some one guide how to know when is the deadline for the program to apply and how to know if a program accepts an old IMG graduate. I am new, I am sure these questions have been answered in the past, so kindly guide me where to find the answers. Thanks, PL
