Hi,
I am about 2 months out from taking the COMLEX PE, and was wondering if anyone has any advice for how to prepare via self study. How many hours/day is advisable? I've already passed COMLEX 2 CK and USMLE CK. Thanks in advance.

Hours/day? Not necessary when you're 2 months out! I spent maybe 20-30 mins/night for about 5 days before the exam reviewing the proper way to examine patients and a few OMM techniques that are fairly versatile (rib raising, OA decompression, etc.) and that was MORE than adequate. As long as you've done your family practice rotation, the PE is nothing more than an inconvenient and long day.
