Thank you so much,yendor, for the reply.Can you tell me how it helps?

Being a 9 years old grad from India,I have not taken any of the steps so far.Can I start my USMLE steps with CS exam straight away,or is the knowledge of CK exam required/helpful for clearing the CSexam.For example,I read one review where the student was trying to explain the SP what haemorrhoids were.I have foregotten most of my theoretical knowledge of clinical subjects .I dont even remember the differential diagnoses of diseases.My CS exam is booked in December end in Philadelphia.So I ask
can I straight away go for the CS exam or should I write the CK first so that I may be familiar with the theory part of clinical subjects.

And what can I do to get USCE at this stage.I am in Canada(Toronto) and as of now have not applied for USCE anywhere.
