I'm a DO student trying to decide whether to take only COMLEX or take USMLE as well.



COMLEX is widely accept for Allo Family practice, IM, and psychiatry as far as I know...but how about other specialties? Do any other Allo programs readily accept COMLEX?

Thanks.

It is region and program specific.

Freida has these answers for you.

The advice I received from a D.O. who matched allo neuro was to take the USMLE so there's a straight comparison across the board, without having to convert COMLEX to USMLE, etc. He stated that some neuro programs "just don't know what to do with the COMLEX."

Thanks for the feedback.

The Frieda website looks useful, however I tried to create an account and it says "Could not locate a physician record that matches this criteria" with my info plugged in.... Can I not register as a Med student or something?

I honestly have no idea how the login works. It says the same thing for me. I forget exactly how to do this, but you just need to create a basic account. Dont click that you are a medical student. Just some jabroni trying to view freida.
