What exams do I need to pass in DO or MD schools?
After medical school, students must pass an exam. MDs take an exam called the U.S. Medical Licensing Exam (USMLE). DOs take the Comprehensive Osteopathic Medical Licensing Exam (COMLEX) and can also take the USMLE.
The USMLE and COMLEX both include three levels:
Level 1 checks students’ knowledge about the fundamental aspects of medicine.
Level 2 sees how well students can apply medical knowledge.
Level 3 measures students’ readiness to provide medical care on their own.
