I need some serious advice. I am currently a HPSP (Army) recipient in my second year at an Osteopathic Medical school. I am preparing to take Comlex 1 next summer, but am not sure if I should take USMLE as well. I want a military residency and I plan to specialize ( surgery, anesthes, etc...). I get mixed responses from people about taking both COMLEX1 and USMLE1. Some say to only take COMLEX bec I will not need USMLE to specialize in the Army, some say to take USMLE step 2 only in addition to COMLEX, some say take COMLEX1 and USMLE1. My fear is taking COMLEX/USMLE1 and not doing so well on the USMLE which will defeat the purpose in taking it. What would you do? Any advice about who in the Army i can talk abt bec i feel as if the recruiters got me in, but now I am not sure who to turn to.
