The Step 2 Committee is scheduled to assess the minimum passing score for both USMLE Step 2 Clinical Knowledge (CK) and Clinical Skills (CS) at its meeting on June 14, 2007. In its review of the minimum passing score, the Step 2 Committee will consider information from multiple sources, including: 1) recommendations from independent groups of physicians who have participated in content-based standard-setting activities in 2007; 2) results of surveys of various groups (e.g., state licensing representatives, medical school faculty, samples of examinees) concerning the appropriateness of current pass/fail standards for Step examinations; 3) trends in examinee performance; and 4) score precision and its effect on the pass/fail decision. The decision of the Step 2 Committee will be posted at the USMLE website. If the Committee determines that a change is appropriate for either component of Step 2, the new recommended minimum passing score will become effective for all examinees who begin their Step 2 CK examination on or after July 1, 2007, and for examinees who begin their Step 2 CS examination on or after July 15, 2007.
