Why does COMLEX still report 2-digit scores if they do not provide more information than 3-digit scores?
3-digit scores provide all necessary performance information for COMLEX. Psychometrically, there is no need for 2-digit scores. However, in order to accommodate some state legislatures require 2-digit scores. In addition, many residency programs have been used to 2-digit scores. It is for these reasons that the NBOME has decided to report 2-digit COMLEX scores.
