Some osteopathic schools are now requiring that their students also take the USMLE\u00ae. So make sure you check with your school\u2019s requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tip_2_Pros_and_cons_of_taking_both_COMLEX-USA%C2%AE_and_USMLE%C2%AE\"><\/span>Tip 2: Pros and cons of taking both COMLEX-USA\u00ae and USMLE\u00ae<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If your school does not require the USMLE\u00ae, you may still consider taking the test. Most residency programs accept both COMLEX-USA\u00ae and USMLE\u00ae, however, you should check with the individual programs as this may determine whether you have to also take this exam. Taking the USMLE might also be beneficial as residency programs can compare your scores with those of your allopathic peers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Keep in mind that these exams are expensive. So make sure you are prepared and feel confident that you can do well. Osmosis\u2019s comprehensive content library and powerful study schedule tool can help you get organized and stay on track so you\u2019re using your study time most efficiently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tip_3_How_to_prepare_for_COMLEX-USA%C2%AE_Level_1\"><\/span>Tip 3: How to prepare for COMLEX-USA\u00ae Level 1<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Regardless of your decision, the content covered on COMLEX-USA\u00ae Level 1 spans the same content covered in the USMLE\u00ae Step 1, so it\u2019s more than okay to use the same resources. Remember, Level 1 tests your foundational knowledge of the basic sciences. Osmosis videos along with accompanying flashcards are a great way to review foundational concepts in an easy, digestible (and joyful!) format.&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.osmosis.org\/?utm_source=blog&amp;utm_medium=osmosis&amp;utm_content=top-3-tips-you-should-know-about-COMLEX-USA-level-1\">Try it free for two weeks<\/a>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The key difference is that Level 1 also covers Osteopathic Manipulative Medicine or OMM. Not only does Osmosis include over 3,300 board practice questions, it also has over 340 OMM questions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To maximize your studying, follow these three easy steps using Osmosis\u2019s content:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Watch a video (before and after lecture) to get a solid foundation<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Review with flashcards to help you with long term retention<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Apply what you\u2019ve learned to case-based questions to strengthen your understanding<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Create your personalized study schedule to get organized and stay on track with your classes and board exams.
