NBOME at OMED '24

NBOME staff and leadership attended the American Osteopathic Association’s annual Osteopathic Medical Educational Conference to provide news and updates on NBOME products and services at its exhibit booth, and leadership met with members of the Council of Osteopathic Student Government Presidents and the American Society of Osteopathic Medical Regulators.

The NBOME also served as a sponsor for the American Osteopathic Foundation 75th Anniversary Honors Gala and the Advocates for the American Osteopathic Association’s annual 5k Fun Run. Thanks for another productive OMED – we look forward to next year’s meeting in Nashville!

Interim Score Converter for

COMLEX-USA Level 2-CE

An interim percentile score is available for candidates who have taken/will take Level 2-CE in the 2024-2025 testing cycle. These candidates should select the date range beginning with June 2024 when checking their percentile. These percentiles are preliminary, as final percentages will not be available until the current testing cycle ends on April 25, 2025. We encourage candidates to check their percentile again after that time.

COMAT-FBS For Non-DOs

The NBOME is now offering COMAT Foundational Biomedical Sciences (FBS) examinations to non-DO programs at schools and colleges of osteopathic medicine.
