What are the differences between the computer-based and paper-pencil COMLEX-USA examinations?
First, the number of questions is reduced in the computer-based COMLEX examinations. Instead of 750 questions as in the paper-pencil COMLEX examinations, there are only 400 questions for each Level of the computer-based COMLEX examinations. As a result, the computer-based COMLEX examinations are 8-hour examinations instead of 16-hour examinations. Secondly, with paper-pencil COMLEX examinations, candidates can review and change answers to the questions in an entire book. With the computer-based COMLEX examinations, questions are grouped into sections of 50 questions. A candidate can only review and change answers to the 50 questions in the current section. Once a candidate confirms ending a section, answers to the 50 questions of that section become final and the candidate can no longer go back to review or change any answers within that 50-question section. A clock is provided to assist the candidate with time management. Warnings are given to remind the candidate of the time remainin
