If you have your step 1 , Step 2 CS and Step 2 CK done.. That should most probably enough to start applying and for programs to consider your application.

Anything above that like USCE, Research Publications strengthen your application. If you dont have them, its not like you arent eligible for applying.

And if you are not matched when you apply the first time, you can still apply the next time. You are still eligible to apply every year. Its not like a one time application and you are dis qualified.

You can gain some experience in interviews with the credentials/USCE you have, while doing some research. Why waste a year when there is no guarantee that a Research publication will get you a residence seat.

Hope I made my point!!!!!!!!
