I had the opportunity to work with both Sean and Alex! Sean has helped me for both Level 1 and also Step 2/Level 2! He not only helped me with content and test taking strategies but was also very motivating and helped maintain my stress through both of these challenging times. I have recommended both to many of my friends and will continue! Both helped me reach my goal scores for both board exams and I matched into my #1 residency program and could not be happier!
I write this review for those who are in a difficult place in their life and are struggling with their examinations. Personally, I was in a difficult place, with limited time, trying to obtain a passing score for Level 2. Sean, who is equipped to handle both Step and Level exams, simply changed my examination thought process and quite frankly, my life. He is was a major part of my success and I feel very lucky to have been guided by him. …
When I first began preparing for my COMLEX Level 2 retake, I was overwhelmed, defeated, and unsure of how to move forward. After failing my initial attempt with a 361, I knew I needed a different approach. Unfortunately, I didn't know where to start and had lost confidence in my ability to objectively assess my learning and progress. Finding Sean and Sahith through Wyzant was the turning point that changed everything. Together, they helped me rebuild from the ground up. …
Dr. Sean Moazezi, DO leads clinical board preparation and teaches COMLEX Level 2-CE. A board-certified internist who sat the examinations he teaches, he helps students identify clues, commit to a clinical assessment and compare close answer choices.
Chelsi Flippo, MD teaches Level 2-CE. Her teaching uses clinical frameworks, case-based review and targeted practice. Level 2 students also describe working with Dr. Sahith Valluru and Alexandra Llovet. Tell us the topics and kinds of mistakes you need help with when discussing availability.
When clinical knowledge is not turning into answers
You may recognize the disease and still miss the question. Sometimes you choose a correct treatment at the wrong point in the patient’s course. Sometimes an overlooked finding changes what should happen next. In a tutoring session, you explain the reasoning out loud so the tutor can identify the exact step that needs work.
Sean’s sequence is to select clues, form a status check before relying on the choices, and grade each option against the stem. We then examine why the last two answers felt equally plausible. The goal of the exercise is a repeatable decision process that you can practice independently after the call.
Diagnosis: say which findings support the working diagnosis and which findings weaken it.
Next-step questions: identify what the patient needs now before choosing a later intervention.
Answer changes: record the reason for changing your mind, then review whether that reason was sound.
Pacing: decide where you are spending time without gaining useful information.
The work comes from live questions and your missed-concept list. A tutor can recommend focused content when a gap is clear; the whole hour does not have to become a broad review lecture. Bring examples from the question bank you already use.
A calendar that fits rotations and dedicated time
At the start, we review your clerkship hours, call schedule, assessment history and target test date. A plan for a rotation week should reserve achievable maintenance work. Dedicated weeks can hold larger question blocks, deeper review and scheduled practice assessments. We revise the calendar instead of expecting every week to look identical.
If shelf preparation is still underway, discuss which topics can feed the Level 2 plan. Our shelf tutoring overview and medicine shelf page explain that support. The practical aim is to carry useful clinical learning forward, with time allocated for weaknesses outside the current rotation.
A scribe writes session notes, generally available in 24–48 hours. Your portal holds goals and notes so the next meeting can pick up from the last one. Send difficult questions between meetings; that support is included and helps us see whether the same misconception keeps returning.
Sample five-week Level 2-CE outline
Illustrative only: this is a sample dedicated-study sequence, not a real student’s record or a required completion pace. Your results and remaining rotation obligations determine the actual order.
Week 1: internal medicine questions and osteopathic review; establish the main clinical reasoning problems.
Week 2: surgery, emergency presentations and musculoskeletal topics, while revisiting OMM misses.
Week 3: pediatrics and reproductive/OB-GYN topics; review whether earlier changes carry over into fresh questions.
Week 4: behavioral science, neurology, biostatistics and ethics.
Week 5: prioritize the weakest areas from recent assessment feedback, finish focused review and protect rest before testing.
Sean’s coaching builds in a full day off each week. Question review is time-capped to keep the study day from disappearing into explanations. If spaced repetition is useful, we focus it on missed concepts; if it is not helping, another short recall routine can replace it.
Example dedicated-day sequence: start with a timed 40-question block, reserve a review period for the missed clinical decisions, and use a separate content block for the largest gap. Keep spaced repetition within about an hour. This sample is a starting point for planning, not a fixed daily requirement; rotation days need a smaller workload.
Assessment checkpoints: review baseline feedback at the start, revisit progress around week 3, and plan a final reassessment with enough time to act on it. Use a fresh assessment when appropriate and make the next question mix reflect the findings. Your tutor and school help set the actual dates.
OMM and COMLEX-specific assessment review
Level 2 tutoring includes osteopathic content. Bring the OMM questions you find confusing so the tutor can distinguish a recall problem from trouble interpreting a finding. Focused review can cover topics Sean teaches, including Chapman reflexes and Fryette principles, before returning to mixed practice.
NBOME offers COMSAE Phase 2 self-assessments for this stage (NBOME: COMSAE).
Discuss recent assessment feedback with the tutor and keep it alongside your question-bank trends. We look for patterns across fresh work. Repeating familiar questions can be useful for learning, but it needs to be distinguished from performance on new material when judging what still needs attention.
Level 2-CE format, passing standard and results
NBOME lists 320 single-best-answer multiple-choice questions in eight sections of 40 (NBOME: examination format).
The current bulletin describes a one-day examination with two separately timed four-hour sessions, 60 minutes of pooled break time and a 16-minute tutorial/information period (NBOME: 2026–2027 examination bulletin (PDF)).
You receive a three-digit standard score, pass/fail designation and a graphical performance profile. The minimum passing score is 400 (NBOME: scoring and reporting).
Passing and your own target are different planning questions. Tell the tutor your current practice performance and your timeline so the study plan can reflect what you need to improve. We do not turn a desired outcome into a promised score increase.
Returning for a Level 2-CE retake
Bring the prior performance profile and the schedule you actually followed, including the weeks that did not go to plan. We look for the most changeable problem first: gaps in clinical management, inconsistent osteopathic recall, weak pacing or answer-choice habits. The new plan needs an observable change in how you practice, not simply more hours of the previous routine.
The bulletin sets a total limit of four scored attempts per level and a maximum of four attempts within 12 months, including incomplete or voided attempts in that annual limit. A further final attempt beyond four requires an explicit medical licensing agency request (NBOME: attempt limits).
Your school and NBOME should confirm eligibility and timing. The COMLEX retake guide can help organize the questions you need to ask. For a longer view beyond this attempt, see Level 3 tutoring.
Level 2 students on working with the tutors
“I had the pleasure of working with Sean and Sahith while preparing for my Level 2 exam, and I couldn't have asked for better tutors. They were incredibly helpful, tailoring the study sessions to my specific needs and ensuring I fully understood the material.”
— Isha R.
“Sean was extremely motivating and dedicated to me as I prepared for COMLEX 2. He did a fantastic job tailoring his sessions with my schedule and timeline.”
— Hailey
“I found them at a time when I desperately needed help with COMLEX Level 2. It was a “make or break” moment, and after being hesitant for a while, I decided to seek tutoring because, as someone who's generally shy about asking for help, I knew I couldn’t do it on my own.”
— Cynthia L.

Taking Step 2 CK as well?
We can build a shared calendar and adjust question practice to each exam. Tell us both dates and which test comes first; a plan that ignores the final gap between them may overload the last week. See Step 2 CK tutoring and the Level 2-CE versus Step 2 CK comparison.

COMLEX Level 2-CE Tutor FAQ
Are there tutors to increase a COMLEX Level 2 score?
Yes, tutors can work with you on the content and question habits limiting your performance. We review current assessments and build focused practice. The amount of any score change depends on the student; no particular increase is promised.
What is the cost of COMLEX Level 2-CE tutoring?
One-on-one tutoring is $349 per 50-minute session. A free 20-minute phone consultation comes first so you can discuss the exam date, study constraints and tutor match.
Is Level 2 tutoring a class?
Sessions are private and online, with content chosen around your current errors. You can use them for clinical reasoning, targeted subject review or accountability rather than attending a fixed sequence of group lectures.
Can tutoring fit around clinical rotations?
Yes. We build lighter maintenance work into demanding clinical weeks and reserve larger study blocks for time you can protect. Send your rotation schedule so the plan reflects the hours you actually have.
What is the passing score for Level 2-CE?
The minimum passing standard is 400. NBOME reports a three-digit standard score with a pass/fail designation and performance profile (NBOME: official score reporting).
How long does it take to get Level 2-CE results?
Results are generally released two to six weeks after the testing window ends. Use the official testing-window calendar to check the date relevant to you (NBOME: scoring and reporting).
Can the same plan include Step 2 CK?
Yes. We coordinate the two exam dates and shared clinical review while retaining COMLEX-specific work. Let the tutor know about both exams before the calendar is built.
Do you work with Level 2 retakers?
Yes. We examine the previous performance profile and preparation routine, then choose a concrete change in question practice, content work or scheduling. Check retake eligibility with your school and NBOME before setting the date.
