The National Board of Medical Examiners® (NBME®) is developing new assessment formats for use in its Step 2 Clinical Skills (CS) examination. A field trial of these new formats is planned between January 11 and January 23, 2012, at the National Board of Medical Examiners, Philadelphia, PA. This trial is primarily a test of new case formats and measurement instruments that will resemble USMLE Step 2 CS. It will give participants a chance to “practice” a clinical skills examination under USMLE conditions.
