USMLE™ Step 2 Clinical Skills (CS) Extended Turnaround for Score Reporting in Fall 2005
All components of the USMLE undergo regularly scheduled recalibration. Score release is delayed during these periods. The examinee group for the next scheduled recalibration for Step 2 CS will include those testing in October and November 2005. Therefore, it will take longer than the current interval of approximately 8 weeks to report scores for some examinees who test during this period. In some instances, the turnaround could extend to 12 weeks or more. It is anticipated that all examinees who complete testing on or before December 31, 2005 will have scores available for the 2006 NRMP Match.
