“Failure is another stepping stone to greatness.” This quote, by Oprah Winfrey, was what my best friend put up on our refrigerator after I failed my COMLEX exam the first time. At the time I didn’t know that my medical journey would have so many stepping stones it could be relabeled as a rock garden. After that first fail, I went on to fail every iteration of the COMLEX board exam. I failed Level 1 three times, Level 2 once and Level 3 once.
