1) it is. N=2 means two people are wrong in this case.
2) again n=2 means two people are wrong in this case
3) if they're you're friends that explains why they're wrong
4) I doubt that looking at your post history. It seems like you cast an HUGE net and keep talking about rejections.
5) oops. You're correct on that one. My bad.
Point is. I have experience in prepping for these exams and you have ZERO experience with them.
You're basing everything off what a couple of your friends say. If we're going to just discount my own experience with practice tests and prep materials and only deal with word of mouth, then as a MEDICAL STUDENT, I know literally hundreds of people who have taken both and the OVERWHELMING consensus is that USMLE is much more rigorous than COMLEX. Period.
You're like a middle schooler telling a a premed studying for the MCAT that they don't know anything about the MCAT.
Sure, I'll know more after taking the real test, but to talk about a test you MIGHT actually know something about..
After a couple practice MCATs I'm betting you we're pretty well prepared for what the test content/rigor would be, right? Same with me and USMLE and COMLEX.
Good thing I dont need to convince you of my medical school admission status then, nor do I really care.. What you are not understanding is that its still your opinion because you are just one person. I used my two friends as personal examples. There have been many people on this forum alone that have said the tests are relatively similar after they took both.
If you go back through the posts, you'll notice I never actually made ANY judgement call on the difficulty of the two exams. I just said that you are making a bold claim that USMLE is that much harder than COMLEX when I've heard otherwise from others who are much further in their medical education. In the end, its true I dont know because I havent taken the exam. But like I said, its the word of some arrogant, condescending rager on SDN vs others whom I know and others on this forum. Who do you think I'll be more inclined to believe?
Anyways, I'm done talking about this. Its turned into a circle argument. Actually, you are probably the kind of relentless rager that continues to instigate dead arguments so I'll ignore you instead.
Not to mention this inane argument is derailing Goro's thread.
