Good evening:

It's been a while since I've posted in this forum. I'm no longer a pre-med. In fact, I'm finishing up the last two years of a combined DO/PhD program now. As I plan my dissertation defense, board exams, and remaining rotations (we do some during research), I had a quick question. I took both COMLEX (597) and USMLE Step 1 (242) and will take both parts of COMLEX Level 2 and USMLE Step 2-CK. I am planning a career in neonatology. For either residency match or fellowship match, will I need to complete USMLE Step 2-CS as well so I am eligible to take Step 3 or will COMLEX Step 3 alone suffice?

Thanks so much for your help!

Comlex Level 3 is fine. I have not found any reason to waste the money/time/energy on CS as a DO.
