The National Board of Medical Examiners® (NBME®) is developing new
assessment formats for use in its examination programs, including the
United States Medical Licensing Examination® (USMLE®), which NBME
jointly owns with the Federation of State Medical Boards (FSMB). A field
trial of these new formats is planned between June 3rd and June 15th, 2011,
at the National Board of Medical Examiners, Philadelphia, PA. This trial is
primarily a test of new formats but will also include standard multiple
choice questions (MCQs) that resemble USMLE Step 2 Clinical Knowledge (CK)
and USMLE Step 3 in content and format. Those who anticipate taking USMLE
Step 2 CK or Step 3 may find participation in this field trial useful.

FIELD TRIAL DESCRIPTION
In addition to traditional MCQ formats, the field trial will incorporate new
simulation-based formats that broaden the range of competencies that can be
assessed to include professionalism, communication, and systems-based
practice. New response formats are aimed at assessing skills in establishing
a differential diagnosis, writing admission orders, reconciling medications
, and rating the quality of communication (e.g., delivering bad news,
obtaining informed consent, disclosing medical errors) depicted in video.
The 5.5-hour test day will consist of the following components:
20-minute tutorial describing traditional MCQ formats
Two 60-minute blocks of MCQss
30-minute tutorial describing new assessment formats
Two 65-minute blocks of new assessment formats
Brief post-test survey
15 minutes of break time | l********p
