What are 2-digit COMLEX-USA scores?
COMLEX-USA 2-digit scores are standard scores too. For all three COMLEX-USA Levels, the 2-digit scores are constructed such that the minimum passing score is 75 and mean is 82, regardless of when the examinations were given. Standard deviations for the 2-digit scores, however, are Level-specific and time-specific. COMLEX-USA 2-digit scores are NOT percentile ranks. Similarly, they are not the percentage of items candidates answered correctly. COMLEX-USA 2-digit scores and 3-digit scores are equal measures of a candidate’s performance on a COMLEX-UA cognitive examination. By definition, 2-digit scores can be directly converted from 3-digit scores. For example, if 3-digit score is 400 or the minimum passing score, its corresponding 2-digit score will be 75, the minimum passing score in 2-digit scale. Similarly, if 3-digit score is 500, the mean score, the corresponding 2-digit score will be 82, the mean score of 2-digit scale. On the NBOME website you will find a score conversion tool th
