comsae I finished fairly on time, about 15 minutes to spare.Just wondering if you were able to finish comsae in time? I took comsae and was able to finish it with 30min to spare, but I'm worrying about real deal having way too long question stems.
Passing ScoreHey guys, for COMQUEST - what does the 59% line for passing mean exactly? Also I've been told that being around 62-65% usually predicts you can score "average" around 500-510. Not sure how true that is.
I'm about ~75% done with it and I've been stuck in the 57-58% the whole time. For about 30% of what I get wrong, I get stuck between two choices and often choose the "second best" answer. For reference, I averaged a ~440 on COMSAE B/E. Weirdly enough I score around low 70s on UWorld in my 2nd pass currently.
I took COMLEX on 8/27, here are my thoughts:
I prepped using the Boards Bootcamp Program and UFAP as well as COMQUEST. I was scoring in the high 70%-100% ranges on my 10 question blocks that I would do on COMQUEST. My final average for COMQUEST before I took the exam was a 65%.
Now we go to test day:
What an absolutely horrible exam in my opinion. Poorly written questions, the OMM that was easy was easy but the OMM that was hard was just unanswerable. Felt like 50% of my exam was OMM and viscerosomatics, 10% was random difficult ethics questions that I usually do well on but these just had 3 options that were all valid IMO, the rest was a variety of mainly physiology, then path, then micro, then pharm.
My BIGGEST gripe about my exam was that it truly felt like the test maker for that specific exam went through ALL of our first two years of material and chose like 5 topics and then wrote the ENTIRE exam based on these 5 topics with barely any regard for the rest of the preclinical knowledge we got. Literally almost repeating questions just using different wording. I feel like I wasn't tested on the breadth of knowledge I prepared for and by them honing in on so few topics it really set me up for failure. Not a single question about mechanisms for antibiotics, not a single question about any of the autoimmune diseases (maybe 1 or 2 but felt like hardly any), literally almost zero renal path questions, I can keep going.
All in all, I genuinely feel like I failed that exam when I shouldn't have based on my practice sets and my confidence going in. Please PM me or reply if you have any questions or feel like you can relate!

hey I also took it 8/27 and feel very very similar. honestly im just so numb and upset. got a 510 on comsae E a week earlier but I really think I might have failed. I feel like the questions were straightforward but you either knew it or you didnt. and I made so many dumb mistakes too. (((((

Passing Score
A consistent score above this indicates a statistically significant likelihood that you will score above average on your exam.

Thank you for the clarification!
How did you know the percentile for comsae? How do you compared your comsae with your qbank average? What’s 62-63% comquest average equal to?Thanks, my past few comsaes were nearly identical to the percentile comquest gave me. And same for a recent friend who sat for it (I think they had a 62-63% average)
