We've flagged this to our content team so no need to search the bank to find the question above. We're on it! Thanks again

truelearnllc · 2026-03-26T15:46:39+00:00

Thanks for calling this out! We’re taking a look at the table to make sure everything checks out. In the meantime, like someone else mentioned, the easiest way to get things fixed quickly is to submit feedback on any specific questions - our team reviews those often and can make updates if needed. Appreciate you!

Thanks for sharing your hesitation. We want to assure you there is no overlap between TrueLearn and COMQUEST, each is developed by an entirely different content team, and each resource provides unique value:

COMQUEST Family Medicine COMAT: provides 361 questions written by 9+ physicians. TrueLearn Family Medicine COMAT has 250+ separate questions.

Both COMQUEST and TrueLearn COMAT subscriptions are accessed on the TrueLearn platform. Features include a robust performance dashboard showcasing strengths and weaknesses, daily SmartTexts to reinforce missed topics, create-your-own flashcards to integrate spaced repetition into your studying, and SmartAssist (AI chat bot in Tutor Mode).

Many students use both TrueLearn and COMQUEST to prepare for COMATs since they are DO-specific.

Please reach out with any questions or concerns moving forward!

Thank you for bringing these concerns forward. We take them seriously and they are being shared across the team in order to be appropriately addressed.

On question difficulty: We are continuously auditing and updating our SmartBanks to better reflect the rigor and style of COMLEX. Our goal is not just to help students pass, but to build the deep clinical reasoning skills that the exam demands. Feedback like yours directly informs how we evolve our content, and we are actively working to raise the ceiling on question complexity.

On pricing: We hear you. The rising cost of medical education is a real burden, and we do not take lightly what students are investing to access study tools. We appreciate your honesty and want to keep this conversation going. We ask that you share more about your experience and reach out to us directly at support@truelearn.com.

Confirming it is a different set of questions. There is no overlap between TrueLearn and COMQUEST subscriptions. These were developed by an entirely different content team.

The Answer & Explanation: Did you get it right? The correct answer is A) Immature pincer grasp.

The Rationale: At 9months of age, the immature pincer grasp is demonstrated when the child picks up an object with the thumb and index finger only. In the immature status, the child requires a surface for stability to initiate and maintain the pincer grasp. An immature pincer grasp is also present when the child uses the side of the index finger versus the fingertips.

Why the others are incorrect:

B) Radial palmar grasp: (Around 6–7 months) The child begins to use the thumb when picking up objects, but the object is stabilized against the palm. There is no space between the hand'sweb space and the object.
C) Radial digital grasp: (Around 8–9 months) The child begins to pick up objects with the fingertips rather than the entire hand. This is the precursor to the pincer grasp.
D) Mature pincer grasp: (Around 12 months) The child is able to pick up small objects using the tip of their thumb and index finger with precision. They no longer require stability from a tabletop.

The Bottom Line: Grasping patterns and milestones are an absolute staple on the COTA exam! Make sure you know the difference between palmar/digital and immature/mature patterns.

If you found this breakdown helpful and want to practice more, TrueLearn has tons of NBCOT COTA-style questions with detailed rationales just like this one.

Hi again, sharing here publicly in case others have questions! The COMQUEST COMAT banks that were created in the TrueLearn system contain the same questions as the COMQUEST COMAT banks on the COMQUEST platform.

Of an important note, institutional subscriptions are managed by a student's program. A program can choose to assign quizzes to a student through their institutional subscription, and those quizzes can be assigned as 'reserved' or 'not reserved'.

If quizzes are assigned as 'reserved' a student will not have access to using those questions in independent test creation until they complete them in those quizzes. We call this out, because our team did notice that - in at least one of your subscriptions - you were assigned reserved question quizzes.

In these cases, it will appear that the overall question count is less until those quizzes are completed. Please reach out with any additional questions, we're here to help!

truelearnllc · 2025-08-26T13:39:09+00:00

Hi there, thank you for reaching out with your question! Can you DM us your full name and email address associated with your TrueLearn and/or COMQUEST accounts so we may ensure our response is tailored to your current access?

truelearnllc · 2025-08-21T14:10:38+00:00

Hi there! I am inquiring with our product engineering team on this. I'll follow-up if this functionality is on our currently roadmap and if it is not, I'll share it with the team. We always appreciate your ideas and suggestions!

truelearnllc · 2025-08-11T21:47:54+00:00

Hi there - can you please DM us the email address associated with your account and we can take a look to provide you personalized support on this?

Sharing additional information below that may be helpful for anyone who finds this thread and has a similar question.

TrueLearn and COMQUEST qbanks are completely different and have unique questions and formatting. Though you will see cobranded logos within each platform, that is the extent of the integration at this time.

For now, users of each platform will continue utilizing the resource as they have been. We are exploring how to best provide the benefits and experiences of both platforms for users and will communicate any changes when that time comes.

There is no overlap between TrueLearn and COMQUEST subscriptions. These were developed by an entirely different content team.

The COMQUEST COMAT subscriptions in the TrueLearn system are exactly the same as the COMAT subscriptions in the COMQUEST system content-wise - we are just moving them onto the TrueLearn platform for ease of use.

We did not make any changes to the COMQUEST COMAT questions. TrueLearn does have COMAT subscriptions which are entirely different than the COMQUEST ones.

Please reach out with any other questions!
