140 DO Med Students Asked Me These 5 Questions About Boards

An osteopathic medical school flew me out to lecture 140 DO medical students on COMLEX prep and over three days, I heard the same five questions again and again.

If you’re preparing for COMLEX Level 1, chances are you’re asking them too.

In this video, I break down:

• When and how often to take COMSAEs

• What to do if Sketchy doesn’t work for micro and pharm

• Whether your dedicated period is long enough

• Should you take USMLE and COMLEX — and which first?

• How to study when your school forces you to attend class during “dedicated”

We also talk about:

• The 450 COMSAE benchmark and what it actually means

• Why spaced repetition (Anki) is non-negotiable

• How to structure questions vs content review

• And the biggest misconception DO students have about boards

I’m Dr. Lucas — former medical school professor, DO, and full-time COMLEX tutor. This is exactly what I told 140 osteopathic medical students before they started dedicated.

If you’re staring down Level 1, this will save you time, money, and unnecessary panic.
