The Clinical Skills Step 2 CS exam assesses whether the applicant can demonstrate a mastery of the fundamental examination skills essential for safe and effective patient care. There are three gradable subcomponents of the Step 2 CS exam:
1. Clinical Encounter with a live Standardized Patient: Two major activities are conducted firstly, data gathering which includes collection of patient information by history and physical examination. Secondly, documentation with completion of a patient note on the patient encounter, diagnostic intuition, and preliminary patient work-up is established.
2. Communication and Interpersonal Skills: These comprise questioning skills and methodology, information-sharing skills and professional manner, and general rapport that the patient creates with the standardized patient.
3. Demonstrated Proficiency with the English language: The applicant articulates a clear and concise understanding of spoken English communication with the standardized patient.
Another major competitive advantage of CSR is that it employs only board certified medical professionals to develop and execute the content of its encounters. CSR utilizes the same trained and certified practice patients that work at the testing sites.
