Step 2 CK Examination to Include Items with Associated Audio and Video Beginning in August 2007
Posted May 31, 2007
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A small number of multiple-choice items with associated audio and/or video clips will be introduced into the USMLE Step 2 CK Examination beginning in early August 2007. No more than 5 items with associated media clips will appear in a single examination. The 2007 USMLE Orientation Materials include a small number of multiple-choice items that contain exhibits involving audio and/or video clips. Instructions for practicing with items with associated media clips on Step 1, Step 2 CK, and Step 3 are provided in the Tutorials for each Step examination in the orientation materials.
Items with associated media will be introduced in Step 1 and Step 3 during 2008. An announcement will be posted to the USMLE website approximately 2 months before any items with associated media clips appear on Step 1 or Step 3 examinations. Additional information will be posted to the USMLE website as it becomes available.
