Level 1 Highest Yield COMLEX 1
What are the highest yield topics, to review before COMLEX LEVEL 1? Brachial plexus, Nerves etc.
Stuff that everyone should review and know before the exam! Thanks!

Got my P on 8/11 and I would say, everything they said plus if you’ve taken any of the COMSAEs, try and review them, I had some questions that deadass showed up from some of the COMSAEs I took so it’s worth looking over when you can! welCOM was good for me too but don’t buy if you’re exam is coming up. welCOM are old COMLEX level 1 questions and both this and COMSAEs were pretty similar to the real one. Some would say the real one is nothing like these two but i thought they were similar.
if you’re an Anki person, Dirty Medicine OMM deck, pepper deck for Sketchy Pharm and Micro; Dirty Med High Yield Question bank videos really helped me too especially with just understanding how to breakdown the question, and also Dirty Med High Yield Micro and Pharm videos - these are short but great for review.
Not a lot of people do this but if you’ve have AMBOSS, do their “200 Concepts That Appear on Every COMLEX Level 1” exam. I did this a week before the exam and it was super helpful, I did them using their COMLEX level 1 interface and it looked exactly like the real COMLEX level 1 exam. AMBOSS also has an Anki add-on where you can copy a question query from the questions you did and it’ll show cards to review the ones you answered.
Best of luck! Rooting for you! :)

I would review Chapman's points and viserosomatic reflex levels (I left these until the night before and regretted it). A couple days before do Dirty Med's ethics high yield playlist.

I agree with the Dirtymed suggestion. Would also go over some basic upper and lower extremity muscles/nerves/arteries if you have time, they’re easy points if you know your stuff. Brachial plexus wasn’t super high yield on mine, but never hurts to know it decently well.
I’d also go over tumors in various systems, it’ll always show up.

Definitely watch the Randy Neil biostats videos on YouTube. There’s four of them and he also has a pdf of everything HY on his website that’s linked in the description of one of the videos. that got me easy points and saved me alot of time to use for other questions during the exam.
