On Uworld and the USMLE, once you click Next on a sequence question, you cannot change your answer. COMBANK allows this, but does the actual COMLEX?

Also, COMBANK does not give you a calculator. Uworld and the real USMLE do. Does the COMLEX?
 
No calculator on COMLEX...from what I know every calculation is done in your head or on the dry erase board. I wouldn't fret it would be hard calculations like USMLE.

In a set of 50 questions for COMSAE (e.q. NMBE) you can change answers. But once you move on to the next block you can't go back to the first 50 question block.

Hope that helps!

Thanks, but I was asking about the special "sequence questions," where you have 2 or 3 questions about the same case. On the USMLE, once you answer the first question, you can't use the information provided in the following question to go back and change your answer to the first question.
I know that you can go back within a given block.
