Hey all,

I am getting ready to sign up for USMLE Step II but am unsure whether I should or not. I scored in the mid 500's on COMLEX Step I and just below average on USMLE Step I (210's). I am obviously required to take and report my COMLEX Step II scores, however, should I bother taking USMLE step II and improve my USMLE scores or should I just stick with my COMLEX scores when applying to residency since they are above average. Additionally, if I do take USMLE step II, is it possible as a D.O. to submit USMLE scores to some programs and not submit them to other programs that don't require them?
