I have officially passed my Step 2 CK! The score came in, and I was happy. Not only did I pass, but I actually did better than I would have ever imagined taking into account the utter despair I felt when I left the testing center that down.
Unfortunately, a passing score on the CK is only half the battle. I had to take the other half of the Step 2 this week The Clinical Skills exam was designed to weed out foreign physicians that can't speek a lick of English who are trying to chase the American dream.
It's 8 hours of interviewing fake patients. The actors playing that are only allowed to say specifically scripted lines ("No. My back does not hurt.") which makes it very difficult for me to stay in my fake doctor character. But, I made it through the day. So, now, all I need is a passing score, and I'm home free to graduation.
