Step 3 is just a requirement for H1 visa in most cases. They won't base their ranking on the fact if you have or not the step 3. You can always avoid transmitting it. If a program really wants to know the result prior to ranking, which I doubt, they probably will ask if you have it already.

thanks Dr. Necker, so you are saying that i shouldnt transmit my score?

If you don't do it, I don't think it will affect your ranking. If you do, maybe some programs will look at you differently. Not all of them maybe, but why taking the risk?

Dont reveal it, but if asked, make sure u say the truth...b coz PDs have access to ur scores
