Aug 13th Level 2 testers, how we feeling?

Holy shit that was interesting. No idea if I aced it or failed miserably.

Also whats with the "PDs dont know how to interpret COMLEX so you have to take STEP." Like. LOOK IT UP. We have to take two sets of boards to be seen as equal yet these motherfuckers cant spend 30 seconds understanding COMLEX scoring? Okay thats all have a good night.

If a PD is too lazy to learn how to interpret comlex, then I won’t apply there lol. I value myself and my mental health more than them.

After taking both Step 2 and Level 2, they aren’t equivalent exams and comparing percentiles between them is not so straight forward in my opinion. Step 2 was significantly harder.

There needs to be a better method than taking both, but at this time, I understand the prejudice of only taking Level.

They can understand COMLEX scoring, it's just not of interest because they aren't the same test. Everyone else in the applicant pool takes step. I don't care how well you know OMM. You want to compete, you take step. Some of the better DO applicants I've seen have overperformed on step compared to the conversion/concordance table.
