Exam Specifications

The COMLEX-USA series is designed to assess the osteopathic medical knowledge and clinical skills considered essential for osteopathic generalist physicians to practice medicine without supervision. COMLEX-USA is constructed in the context of medical problem-solving which involves clinical presentations and physician tasks. Candidates are expected to utilize the philosophy and principles of osteopathic medicine to solve medical problems.
 
The Clinical Presentation (“Dimension I”) of the COMLEX-USA examination blueprint identifies high-frequency and/or high-impact health issues that osteopathic generalist physicians encounter in practice. The Physician Task (“Dimension II”) specifies the major steps osteopathic physicians generally undertake to solve medical problems.
The COMLEX-USA series is an examination sequence with three Levels. While all examination Levels have the same two-dimensional content structure, the depth and emphasis of each Level parallels the educational experiences of the candidate. This progressive nature of the COMLEX-USA examinations ensures the consistency and continuity of the measurement objectives of the osteopathic medical licensing examinations.
