have passed resolutions calling for the elimination of Step 2 CS. In June 2016, the Arizona Medical Association and the AMA - Medical Student Section passed resolutions also calling for the elimination of Step 2 CS. All four resolutions were introduced to the American Medical Association's 2016 Annual House of Delegates meeting, and were combined and adopted as a substitute, single resolution by a unanimous voice vote on 6/15/2016. The adopted language calls for the AMA to work with the FSMB, NBME, state medical societies, and state medical boards to pursue the transition from the Step 2 CS exam to a school-administered clinical skills exam as a licensure requirement. March 16, 2020, USMLE cancelled all appointments for the USMLE STEP 2 CS exam due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Scheduling functionality for the exam has also been cancelled. It remains to be seen what actions will be taken by the respective authorities given the fluid nature of the pandemic and the person-to-person nature of this exam. On May 26, 2020, USMLE has "decided to suspend Step 2 CS test administrations for the next 12-18 months." The USMLE announced on January 26, 2021, that "[they] have decided to discontinue Step 2 CS."
