Introduction
About the USMLE Step 2 CK Examination
The USMLE Step 2 CK (Clinical Knowledge) is typically taken as the
second test in a series of 3 certifying examinations that are necessary to
obtain a license to practice medicine in the United States. Step 2 CK is
usually taken in medical school between the end of years 3 and 4.
The most common mistake in preparation is doing the same
single question bank over and over! Do as many different
questions as you can.
Step 2 CK is more clinically based than Step 1. Although there is no
requirement to take Step 1 before Step 2 CK, that is the typical
sequence for U.S. graduates. According to the test maker, the
questions on Step 2 CK measure the ability to apply medical
knowledge, skills, and understanding of clinical science as they pertain
to patient care (under supervision), with emphasis on health
promotion and disease prevention.
Step 2 CS (Clinical Skills) is the second part of the USMLE Step 2 exam;
it uses model patients to test the ability to perform in a real clinical
setting.Www.Medicalstudyzone.com

Step 2 CK Examination Structure
USMLE Step 2 CK is a computer-based test that will not exceed 318
questions taken over a 9-hour period.
USMLE Step 2 CK uses 2 types of questions: single best answer (most
common type) and sequential.
USMLE Step 2 CK questions have to be unequivocally clear. If an
area is controversial, USMLE will avoid it, and ask only what is
clear. The exam will not trick you.
SINGLE BEST ANSWER
The majority of Step 2 CK questions are multiple-choice questions that
follow a clinical vignette. The basic structure is:
Eight blocks, each one 60 minutes
Once you have completed a block or 60 minutes has run out, you will
not be able to go back to any questions in that block.
The total break time throughout the day will be 45 minutes. The
computer will keep track of your break time. Be sure not to exceed the
45 minutes or you will be penalized by having time deducted from
your last block of the test.Www.Medicalstudyzone.com
