USMLE® Step 2 CS assesses whether you can apply medical knowledge, skills, and understanding of clinical science essential for the provision of patient care under supervision and includes emphasis on health promotion and disease prevention. Step 2 CS ensures that due attention is devoted to principles of clinical sciences and basic patient-centered skills that provide the foundation for the safe and competent practice of medicine.

Step 2 CS uses standardized patients, i.e., people trained to portray real patients. The cases cover common and important situations that a physician is likely to encounter in clinics, doctors’ offices, emergency departments, and hospital settings in the United States.

What is the USMLE® Step 2 CS Examination?

The Mission of Ximedus is to prepare United States Medical Students and International Medical Graduates (IMG's) for taking the STEP 2 CS Examination. Our Step 2 CS review course focuses on Communication and Interpersonal Skills, Spoken English Proficiency, the Patient Note, Physical examination skills, and History-taking skills.

Every year thousands of doctors take and fail the USMLE® Step 2 CS examination. Recently, the Step 2 CS examination has morphed into a much more demanding exam, causing many students difficulty to pass. As of February 2018, only 75% of the first-time takers passed and only 61% of the repeat takers passed. Those statistics are even worse for Foreign Graduates. As of October 2019, the approximate pass rate for first-time takers will be about 75% for International Medical Graduates, view link to the website, https://usmle.org/performance-data/. We have adapted the content in our workshops to meet the requirements of the “New Changes”, including information on the "Natural Language Processing/Computer-Assisted Scoring of the Patient Notes. We have made additional adjustments to the Workshop to accommodate for the challenges that this change will present to all examinees. We have increased the area of ICE to give you more time to practice your Physical Examination Skills using Standardized Patients in individual examination rooms.

It won't be easy, but with our Step 2 CS preparation, you can PASS the USMLE® Step 2 CS examination and move on to securing a Residency/Fellowship position. Ximedus was developed by Physicians 13 years ago in a University setting and later transitioned into the private sector. We have successfully trained over 9,250 examinees to successfully pass their Step 2 CS examination.

Our medical/teaching faculty have over 40 years of combined experience in medicine and medical education and our pass rate exceeds 99%. No other program offers the formula for success by combining the following elements… USMLE® step 2 cs preparation, USMLE® step 2 cs physical exam, and USMLE® step 2 cs patient note.

At Ximedus, we understand the needs and concerns of our students, and so we keep our class sizes small less than 13 students per workshop which gives individual attention to each student, maintains a safe and supportive learning environment. We assist our students with transportation (to and from lodging and the airport), which is complimentary.

Ximedus, Inc. maintains a variety of Step 2 CS review courses to address the specific needs of each student; we are currently offering 1-Day, 3-Day, and two 5-Day Workshops and a 1/2 Day Online Examination, each with a different emphasis.

There are no other USMLE® Step 2 CS preparation workshops able to compete with our high level of individualized attention and the quality of our instruction. We teach all aspects of the test, including History-taking skills, Communication skills, Empathy, Spoken English Components, Physical Exam Skills, Time Management, and the Patient Note.

Thank you for taking the time to read this

We understand that this is a terrifying time for all of us. We also understand the need to move forward safely. So the question that everyone needs to be answered is:

"What is Ximedus doing to protect Us and the Standardized Patients and the environment that we are going to be trained in?"

For the last 10 days, we have deep cleaned our entire facility, and took the following measures:

Disinfected and painted the whole center including the walls and floors
Installed Medical Grade Air Purifiers the one that was used to control MERV and SARS
Equipped all the personnel of Ximedus with an approved medical mask that will protect them against COVID-19
Ask the staff to isolate themselves and do a daily health checklist and multiple temperature checks daily and submit that to the office
We have put procedures in place to screen attendees from airport transport with a mask, hand sanitizer, and temperature checks
All workshop attendees will receive protective equipment for personal use during their time at Ximedus
We have also reduced the maximum size of the workshop to 7, so appropriate spacing can be maintained

We know that these are precautions that will be necessary for us to continue our mission of helping students and physicians to prepare for their USMLE Step 2 CS Examination, we are most concerned about yours and our safety and preserving life.

Please contact us for any further questions regarding our safety measures.

If you are currently enrolled in a workshop all change fees are being waived to accommodate adjustments that you may need to make.

Thank you, The Ximedus Team.
