[Cusom27] 1/3/2025 - Practice Qualifying Exam Instructions

Thu Jan 2 13:25:01 EST 2025

Dear Students,

We will be using Zoom to proctor the Practice Qualifying Exam tomorrow (listed on the Block schedule as “Review Exam – Part I and Part II”; it is a full-fledged practice exam for COMLEX Level 1 so it will contain some questions for content you have not seen yet – Endo, GI, and Repro as will be the case for the qualifying exams, QE 1 & QE 2 later in the spring).

You will all join using the Zoom link below and then we will split you into breakout rooms for proctoring the exam.  You will need to keep your camera on the entire time you are taking the exam.  We can tell the difference when your camera is struggling due to a poor connection. When you are finished with the first COMSAE, you may leave the breakout room and meeting. You will rejoin the meeting using the same link at 1:20 p.m. so we can promptly start again at 1:30 p.m. to take the second half of the exam.

The link to zoom can be found here: https://campbell-edu.zoom.us/j/5027683681?pwd=dWpqOUhZRzMxUENnZ2wrWlo1UkpvZz09

The Practice Qualifying Exam consists of 2 COMSAE exams from the NBOME.  It behooves you to take these seriously.  The exam is scheduled properly, meaning the timing is based on serious attempts at answering these questions. COMLEX Level 1 is an 8 hour exam. You can read more about the details of how the test is administered at Pearson Vue<https://www.nbome.org/assessments/comlex-usa/comlex-usa-level-1/exam-day/> on the NBOME website<https://www.nbome.org/assessments/comlex-usa/comlex-usa-level-1/examination-format/>. That being said there is no score/combined score you need to achieve, nor can you qualify to sit for boards based on this exam. The second half of the exam (i.e. the second COMSAE) will not start until 1:30 p.m.

Hopefully, by now your NBOME account has been set up and everything is working correctly. If not that’s ok, we will need to get it resolved before the first COMSAE in the morning. If you are having difficulties tomorrow simply stay in the main room.  We will get you straightened out before sending you off to your breakout room.

All other normal/standard exam conditions apply. Just to refresh you on those:

- Please see chart below for info on what is allowed and NOT allowed.
- If you need to use the bathroom, please just simply do so quietly.
- Your microphone does not need to be on, but your video does need to remain on.

If you run into any issues with your computer or NBOME, we are ready to assist and will work with you to make sure you can successfully complete your exam. For technical support, you can simply come back to the main room. If your browser experiences issues simply close it. Then open a fresh browser, navigate back to your NBOME account and you will be able to pick up right where you left off.
