OMM Questions in COMBANK

[surfguy84]

If I'm doing well on the OMM questions found in COMBANK, should I be fine for COMLEX?

Are level 1 questions about the same style/difficulty?

The OMM questions on the COMLEX are typically different. The questions presented in Combank OMM are easy

Agree with above. I was hitting 90%+ on COMBANK and was blind sided by the COMLEX OMM.

I wasn't ready for the sheer number of viscerosomatics on my test. I'd say 30-40% of the OMM on my test was viscerosomatics, and the rest was "wtf" type stuff

I knew VS like the back of my hand and got like 2 questions on it. So dumb. What a waste of time.

How would you guys recommend preparing for OMM questions then? @Roxas @SynapticDoctah

I mean, I think if you do COMBANK OMM and read the green book it should give you a good base. You gotta remember that everyone is kinda doing the same thing for OMM so if you don't know something, chances are most others aren't gonna know either.

Unlike @SynapticDoctah, my test was particularly heavy in viscerosomatics. There were several first order "which level corresponds to x" type questions for me. And I feel like you're constantly given hints about the patient's issue from the OMM findings that are given. I used the green book written by Savarese, COMBANK OMM questions, and class material to prepare for the OMM portion. Of all the questions on OMM that I got there were probably 2-3 more difficult ones that I had to really think about to get the answer.
