so they matched EM w/ 220's? ughhh I'm feeling very stuck 1.5 months out after taking COMLEX and deep into rotations now...seems like I just dug a hole for myself as far as being able to take Step 1 and getting a competitive score. hopefully, if i apply ACGME to recently accredited and DO-friendly that accept comlex that will be enough?I agree take both steps, especially now with the merger. I had multiple friends the year above me match with scores in the 220s and the PD said they probably wouldn't have ranked them with just a comlex of 550-600 because they had no idea what it meant. The competition is taking usmle.

Is this one of those things where you call the GME of a program and they say, "yes, we accept COMLEX" when in actuality they don't look at it? I called a few ACGME programs prior to canceling and they all told me they accepted COMLEX so that gave me a little comfort in canceling. Man, if i only knew a few months ago what I know now!
