Way to go TCOM

[TCOM402]

Dear Faculty, Staff, and Student Doctors,

Please join me in congratulating the current third year class (Class of 2011) on their exemplary COMLEX I performance. All students have taken the examination from our new third year class, and here is the data that I have just finished receiving, and collated:

154 students took the exam.
The Pass rate is 99.4%
The high score was 785, with four students scoring over 700+
27 students scored between 600 - and 699
81 students scored between 500 and 599
41 students scored between 400 and 499
1 student scored below 400.

The current mean is Mean=544

This is an impressive mean to say the least. For comparison, last year's mean was 536 with 99.3% pass rate. Last year we were number one in both pass rate and mean score.

As you know, we have been number one in the country on the COMLEX I examination for the past four years. Although I will not be able to confirm this until next summer, I am relatively certain this will now be the fifth year in a row where TCOM students are number one on this exam.

All I can say is I am extremely proud of our faculty for their dedication, and extremely proud of our students for their hard work. TCOM students Rock!!

Congratulations.

Dr. Bruce Dubin

Nice! Congrats TCOM students!!!!!!!!!

BTW: I think it's way cool that TCOM supports their students by lauding their accomplishments. Could you pass on the tidbits to other deans?

Congrats, that is fantastic!

I also applaud TCOM's encouragement and I really like the idea of their Dean to have a blog to pass on info and relate to students.

Yeah, Dr. Dubin shut down his blog sadly, due to some comments on keeptcomdo.com. However, from what I have experienced with Dr. Dubin has been awesome. His clinical discussion was great and I am really looking forward to having more interactions with him through the time I am here. Great dean, always encouraging, great teacher, and more importantly, great doctor.
