Hey everyone, I usually don't post too much on here but im kind of at a crossroads and would like some advice. I'm a second year osteopathic medical student currently prepping for step 1. I'm not 100% sure as to what specialty I will be pursuing but psychiatry is something I've always been interested in. I am currently only registered to take the COMLEX and my question is, would this put me at a distinct disadvantage if I decide to pursue psychiatry? I know many allopathic programs "accept" the COMLEX however do they prefer to take the USMLE? I read an old thread of COMLEX accepting allo programs around the country and it appeared to have a good amount of programs. Thanks in advance for your help!
