From the classroom to clinical rotations to residency training, the Sam Houston State University College of Osteopathic Medicine Class of 2025 has continued to set a high standard for student success.
SHSU-COM is proud to announce that graduates from the Class of 2025 earned a 100 percent first-time pass rate on the COMLEX-USA Level 3 exam, placing the college among only four osteopathic medical schools in the nation to achieve a perfect first-time pass rate during the 2025 testing cycle.
This marks the second consecutive year that SHSU-COM graduates have achieved a perfect first-time pass rate on COMLEX-USA Level 3, following the same accomplishment by the college’s inaugural Class of 2024.
COMLEX-USA Level 3 is the final exam in the national licensure series for doctors of osteopathic medicine. Typically taken during the first year of residency, the exam assesses whether physicians can apply clinical knowledge, clinical judgment and osteopathic principles in the independent practice of medicine.
