Hello
I have heard a number of things from many people on what the requirements are for osteopathic schools to graduate. According to the AOA section 5.4.1. accredidation rules, begining for the class of 2008, you are required to take and pass both the comlex 2 ce and pe. But for ANY student graduating before December 2007, you are only required to take both the comlex ce and pe.
I graduating in the class of 2007. But in my schools handbook, they say you must pass comlex 2ce inorder to graduate and just take the pe. I have checked the handbooks of other osteopathic schools, and some say that it is a requirement to pass comlex 2ce, while most others say just take it dont worry about passing.
can these osteopathic colleges set forth higher standards than their own accrediataion body, the AOA?Is this the reason why some schools have changed the aoa's own rule.? IF this is the case, this doesnt make sense at all.
