COMSAE Phase 2 Form 113 EXAM QUESTIONS AND
VERIFIED ANSWERS WITH RATIONALES JUST
RELEASED
COMSAE Phase 2 Form 113 (BSA 113i) Exam preparation package. I have synthesized the exam
coverage based on the official NBOME blueprint for COMLEX-USA Level 2-CE (which COMSAE Phase 2
mirrors) and the available search results from actual Form 113 questions . This is followed by 250
original, exam-style multiple-choice questions, each with a single best answer and a detailed rationale.

rationale.*
Section 1: Obstetrics & Gynecology (Questions 1–30)
1. A 28-year-old G1P0 at 34 weeks gestation presents with a blood pressure of 155/100 mm Hg and 2+
proteinuria. She reports a severe headache and epigastric pain. Which is the most appropriate next
step?
A) Oral labetalol and outpatient monitoring
B) IV magnesium sulfate and delivery after corticosteroid administration
C) Immediate cesarean delivery
D) Methyldopa and expectant management
Answer: B
Rationale: Severe preeclampsia at ≥32 weeks requires delivery after stabilization. Magnesium sulfate is
given for seizure prophylaxis, and antenatal corticosteroids are administered if <37 weeks .

2. A 24-year-old G1P0 at 10 weeks gestation presents with vaginal spotting and mild cramping. On
speculum exam, the os is closed. Transvaginal ultrasound shows a live intrauterine pregnancy. What is
the most appropriate management?
A) Misoprostol for evacuation
B) Immediate D&C
C) Rh immunoglobulin if mother is Rh-negative, and reassurance
D) Serial beta-hCG monitoring only
Answer: C
Rationale: Threatened abortion (closed os, viable pregnancy) is managed conservatively with
reassurance. Rh-negative mothers require Rh immunoglobulin to prevent sensitization .
3. A 32-year-old G2P1 at 28 weeks gestation has a 1-hour glucose challenge test result of 155 mg/dL.
Which is the most appropriate next step?
A) Diagnosis of gestational diabetes and initiate metformin
B) Repeat glucose challenge test in 1 week
C) 3-hour oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT)
D) Fasting blood glucose monitoring for 1 week
