“Necessary modifications to the test item pool will result in a delay in reporting for some examinees who test beginning the week of June 30, 2018. The target date for reporting Step 2 CK scores for most examinees testing the week of June 30 through mid-August will be Wednesday, August 29, 2018.”

Sorry if my reading comprehension skills are bad...

Does this mean that if you take the CK on any date from Jun 30 to Aug 15 that the scores will be posted exactly on August 29 regardless of the test date, as long as it’s in that time frame? Or does this mean that the scores will start releasing again in a regular, staggered manner (3-4 weeks turnaround) beginning on Aug 29 (meaning, Aug test dates being released in late Sep)?

This seems to happen every year. Everyone should get their scores on the release date of Aug 29.

Happened with my class for step 1 and the traffic on the release date crashed the website where you check your score. Everyone had started third year by that time so people were trying to be as subtle as possible while hitting "refresh" all day long.
