USMLE Prep: Steps & Practice
The USMLE is the three-step examination for US medical licensure. Step 1 covers foundational science, Step 2 CK covers clinical knowledge, and Step 3 covers independent practice. Here's how the steps are structured — with realistic COSMIQ practice.
COSMIQ prepares you for the USMLE and administers realistic full-length mock tests — it does not administer the real exam or issue a medical license.
Frequently asked
What are the three USMLE steps?
Step 1 (foundational sciences, now pass/fail), Step 2 CK (clinical knowledge), and Step 3 (foundations of independent practice). They're taken at different points in medical training.
Does COSMIQ issue a medical license?
No. COSMIQ prepares you for the USMLE and administers realistic practice — it does not administer the real exam or issue a medical license. Licensure comes from your state medical board.
