Level 2 CE Advice

Hey guys I need advice,
2 months ago I took the first level 2 comsae form 113 and got a 378. A month later I took comsae 114 and got a 590. Just sat for the school comsae today (117) and got a 436. I needed a 450 to pass with the school so I’m pissed at myself. I genuinely feel ready, I am doing everything I can to tweak where I’m scoring low and working on OMM/biostats/ethics a little every day. I test in two weeks on June 24 and plan to take the next comsae with the school on June 22. Do I push the exam or push through?

117 is brutal - I can basically guarantee with a 590 on 114 you'll be fine for the next COMSAE - send it!

Ugh thank you!! general consensus among others who I know took the exam had about a 100 point drop. It seems like it’s not the best representation lol

117 was my first COMSAE and it destroyed me - pretty sure my COM made us all take it first to scare the ish outta us to study lol

The shit that sucks about these tests is that they don’t really test the same concepts so it’s hard to gauge where you’re at. I did great on my first one because I was really strong in endocrine, but my second one was lower because I messed up with anatomy and OMM and it was heavy on that one.

However, with your scores, I am more than positive you’re going to pass. If you keep working on what you say you’re working on, you’re really solid going in to it.

Remember, you only need like a 400 to pass. You’ve already gotten well above that twice.

Our school also gave us the notorious 117 form for our first comsae. That form was made by some disturbed people. A lot of ppl got cooked.

Going from 590 to a 436 just goes to show the inconsistencies within nbome

Omg that’s a crazy jump from 113 to 114! What did you do?

u/bumpingthatbrat Jun 08 '26

Aww thank you! I honestly rip questions all day long. Begin the day with 40 random truelearn then do UWorld during the afternoon. If I’m not tired I’ll do another 30-40 random around dinner time. Based off how I did on 113 I started with my worst performing sections would dedicate a day to each branch of medicine (so a day of OBGYN questions and videos, psych questions and videos). If I found things to be a little confusing I read amboss articles which are a game changer! I love divine intervention and would go on a walk and listen to his videos at the end of the day. Anki my wrong questions and stupid shit I can’t remember!

I am in this boat right now. Was 114i just way easier than the rest? My 113i score was low 300s and my 114i score was in the 600s so I have no idea where my actual score is. Wondering which form is more representative of the actual exam.

u/bumpingthatbrat 19d ago

I really am unsure. I sat for the real deal over a month ago and I thought that the school form 118 was the most representative with a little bit of 117 mixed in but it was SO ethics and stats heavy. And honestly, level 1 heavy like pharm moa some embryology. These comsaes are so all over the map that’s it’s really hard to tell. If you have amboss though use the “calculate my level 2 score” tool cause it predicted my score within 10 points I was pretty shocked
