Your Source For COMLEX and COMVEX Testing

Welcome to the gateway for information concerning osteopathic medical licensure, bio-medical and clinical self-assessment and clinical skills performance.

The NBOME has created this web portal to provide all interested a resource location to understand and  explore osteopathic medical assessment.

The following COMLEX-USA examination scores have been mailed and are available online:
	• Level 1 examinations taken on or before March 16, 2012.
	• Level 2-CE examinations taken on or before March 13, 2012.
	• Level 2-PE examinations taken on or before March 30, 2012.
	• Level 3 examinations taken on or before April 24, 2012.
The COMLEX Level 1, Level 2 CE, and Level 3 examinations report both three-digit and two-digit standard scores. The minimal passing 3-digit standard score for Level 1 and Level 2 (CE) is 400, for Level 3 is 350. The two-digit standard score is directly converted from a three-digit score such that 75 is designated as the minimum two-digit passing score. A two-digit score is NOT a percentile score or the percentage of items answered correctly.
