mmm
well im a student and im not sure about the graduate USCE you should ry to get an externship instead of an observership
i think is not that important wheater you have took step 1 or not
try to email, phone call or visitit as many hospitals as u can and ask for one oportunity there program director or cordinator are the persons that could help u more

well hope this info helps u, but as i told u im a student and i know more about the electives stuff

simi for externships you need the ecfmg certification, but for observership you don't need any scores ( as far as I know), of course it will be more effective to be done with the tests but not a necessity again as far as I know. And I have one recommendation for you, keep emailnig and CALLING them, even if they don't reply(unless they tell you a "no".)otherwise lots of times they don't reply emails, you should call them, talk to them even meet them in person. Good luck.
