Just wondering... I know the new CS test is pass-fail, but since some programs increasingly want to see step II scores, are they also interested in the CS scores? Do you need to have both parts completed for the scores to be reported?

these tests are separate so the score reporting is separate
NBME announced a couple months ago that they can't guarantee step2CS scores will be available in time for the Match.
THis is the pilot year for CS so no knows how to interepret the score, nor do they know what to do with it.
Just pass it and move on. another $975 down the tubes

Yeah, it's pass/fail.

I don't think the score reporting from the two tests will have anything to do with each other. You could easily take step 2 CK and get the score without ever thinking about the CS.
