USMLE Step 3 Exam

Testimonials

Here is a sample of the recent emails we keep receiving from our subscribers.

"Just wanted to say thanks so much for such a well researched and developed product in your MCQs and CCS. I am a PGY5, general surgery resident currently in my third year of research (haven't see a patient in 2.5 yrs). I did all of the USMLE World MCQs (final score ~55%, started in the low 40s ended in the low 60s) and CCS over a period of two weeks, just got my score: 220/83. Without your product, I would not have been able to do such an efficient and effective review of the general medicine, ob/gyn, neurology and pediatrics that I have long forgotten. Many thanks."

- Victoria

"I'm glad to say you can add me to the mass of success stories. I had a cumulative score of 62% (53rd %ile) after going through all the USMLEWorld MCQs, and passed Step 3 with a score near the national average. I would imagine there are plenty of subscribers who had well below 65% on USMLEWorld yet passed the real exam."

- David

"Found your Qbank and CCS simulations extremely helpful. Did the exam in a very short span of time thanks to you and obtained 216/82."

- Veerabhadram

"I just wanted to write a quick thank you for a great product. I am an American M.D. graduate and have used your question banks for Steps 1 and 2, and just recently, for Step 3. They were integral in my doing well on these exams. I am currently matched in a categorical residency position. I really don't know how I would have made it through med school and these licensing exams without your product. Thank you again for everything!"

- Michael

"I just took Step 3 yesterday and today, and I wanted to say that I am very appreciative of your excellent Qbanks and CCS cases! I feel like they were very true to the style and type of questions asked on Step 3 and were excellent preparation. The answer explanations are thorough but concise, and do a great job of pointing out the most testable material. Specifically, I like your program much better than Kaplan Qbank (which is much too wordy and not nearly as pertinent and has a lot more bugs in it), and wish I had used USMLEWorld for Steps 1&2 instead of Kaplan."

- Ashley

"I took the exam, post-call, & (many) thanks to your website, performed adequately the following 2 days. I will continue to recommend your services to our interns this year. I would not have performed as well on the case portion without familiarizing myself with the program interface, let alone the material."

- Michael

"I passed Step 3 with a 218/92, and your online subscription was a great tool, especially the CCS component."

- James

"Recently took Step 3. I hope for the best, however, I could not have imagined taking the CCS portion without reviewing your software. That would have been like learning EMR for the exam then proceeding with the test. As always, I will sing your praises to my colleagues."

- Mike

"I started this journey in 2008 with step 2 CK after a gap of 6 years after passing step 1. Passed my Step 2 CK in Oct 2009 with USMLEWorld, passed my CS and now have passed step 3 with a score of 85/204. I love this bank....thank you thank you thank you. I have not done a residency and am an old grad...USMLEWorld definitely helped me in passing the worst USMLE exam i.e step 3."

- Najma

"I just wanted to thank everyone at usmleworld for the outstanding job you are doing. Thanks for your web site I finally passed the USMLE 3. Thanks to your CCS interactive practice software, I achieved an above average performance in solving the CCS cases, which pulled me over the top (I highly recommend practicing the CCS cases multiple times to secure a passing score). Again, thank you for your help. (and for keeping the site updated)."

- David

I used the Qbank for all steps except Step 2 CS and I think this Qbank is excellent for preparing for all steps of the USMLE. I got 99(236) on Step 1 and 99(260) on the 2CK, passed the CS on the first attempt, awaiting my step 3 results. The questions help you to think like the folks who write the questions!!! Well I found out today that I matched and its been a pleasure using the USMLEWORLD Q banks to achieve my goals.

- Buki

"I wish to thank and congratulate you for your great work. I used your course to prepare for step2 ck, step 2 cs, and step 3. I am glad to tell you it was very helpful because i passed with flying colors. I scored 91 in step 2, i passed the step 2cs, and i scored 80 on step 3 on first attempt without any residency training. Thanks for your help and i highly recommend this website to anyone preparing for usmle."

- victor

"I value the up-to-date and concise content of USMLEWORLD. I am sure that it will be of invaluable help to me for Step 3, as it has been in the past for Step 2."

- Samra

"Thank you for the great website, very helpful to prepare for step 3. Keep up with good work."

"Hello Usmleworld, Just wanted to praise this site for those great cases and questions that helped me pass my Step 3. The questions were a perfect study tool, and the cases were percise. Keep up the good work. Your site is worth its weight in gold."

- Dr. Combest

"Hi, I used your Qbank for step 3 and found the material to be excellent! I just found out that I passed the exam and was so happy. Thanks for making your program so easily available."

- Ashu

"This Course is remarkable for the price offered. I find it very detailed more than I had imagined for an online Course"

- Robert

"I want to thank USMLE World for the great study material regarding the step 3. The questions and the subject matter were very well written, and the explainations were thorough. The similarities with the real exam was remarkable. I am pleased with my decision to have used USMLE World as my review material"

- Eduardo

"It is the greatest Step3-CCS content I have ever seen. Please keep on your wonderful work. Commercially speaking, You should add more cases so that you can beat a competitor who has top 50 cases in CCS. Technically speaking, I have a minor suggestion that explanation for orders should clearly be given. In fact, we can get medical information everywhere or we have known them. The problem is that either we can not remember it or do not know how to use it. My point is that it is not good idea for you to simply give us plain medical information. You should tell us how to employ medical knowledge in US clinical settings and try to make us to be able to recall it. I am sure in that way you great guys will attract more and more eye balls in USMLEWORLD. Thank you very much again for wonderful cases and work-ups."

- John

"Board exams (usmle steps1-3) are hard tests, and one has to focus with full attention and energy. Having a full time academic job, time spent to study can be so limited, sometimes, I can not touch books for days...I deeply appreciate your support, which makes my usmle journey much more interesting and yet all possible. Most importantly, among all the study materials in the market, your qbanks stand up as THE gold standard. Without study usmleworld.com, passing the board is just impossible. You have made so many people dreams come true. You have changed so many people's lives! I believe one day, because of you, my dream will also come true."

- Xiaoyan

- Lodin

"Thank you for your comprehensive explanation to my question. I also want to let you know that I am impressed by this web site and I enrolled my self in CCS course."

- Simon

"Regarding the Cases, so far I have read, have excellent approach ad uptodate medical knowledge and I liked that most as it also enrich my preparation for step 3. Sometime I tempted to immediate medicinal intervention for some cases like for TIA case, but your approach for management is more preferable, isn't it?"

- Firoz

"hi, first of all I want to thank usmleworld for their csa course, I took the course & I passed. Now my q is I am planning to take step 3,how long ago I need to subscribe usmleworld.com"

- gap

"i am finding the cases very useful.... more additions would be appreciated .... also if something could be done about mcqs"

- chhabra

"you are on the your way to become the most popular and the best source for CSA,now you are doing the same with CCS"

- Boban

"your site is excellent! Great approach to cases and great management! The best preparation for step 3!"

- Lilly

"Your website and all the contents are extremely useful, they really gave me a general idea about how is the exam and the different situations I should be prepared to face"

- Silvana

"I just got done with my step 3 exam yesterday and can say for sure that your ccs course is "Excellent", though there are a couple of cases which should be added. Keep up the good work!!"

- Kavita

"I am writing to you to express my deep thanks and appreciation to your valuable web site. I subscribed to the CCS section. I failed my Step 3 on my first attempt because I didn't know how to approach the CCS section of the exam. On my second attempt and after reviewing your CCS notes, I ACED my CCS. Many cases are very similar to the cases in your notes!!!!!!. Your case discussion also helped me a lot. Your web site was "exactly what I needed" not only to pass my exam but to excel it with a decent score. I think your notes of the CCS is essential to overcome this section of the exam especially for those who have no clinical background or those who are not exposed to patients management (like me, I am a pathology resident and I lack such experience but with your web site I had no problem!!).

Because of the reasonable price of subscription, I think every examinee should try it and he/she will be the winner! My respect and appreciation for your efforts and I really wish you the best in your work."

- PGY-2

"I thank you for providing me the much needed guidance thru your "case study material". Your web-site was extremely useful in helping me pass the Step 3 examination. I could not respond earlier as I was engross with my preparation."

"Dear Drs: I would like to know who wrote these great questions. I believe that these will help me a lot to pass step 3. Tnanks!"

- Guanghua Wang

"I am preparing for Step 3 and I have been worried about the CCS portion of the test. I am a Pediatrics Resident so all of the internal Medicine and Surgery cases have nothing to do with my life. This is the first and only place where I have found help (in terms of feedback) with preparing for the Clinical Cases! The USMLE disk is only useful to practice with the software, but they ought to include some feedback like yours"

- Karin R. Minter

- mark

"Dear Doctors, I would like to thank all of you for this excellent course. All the materail was very good"

- Glen

"Your study questions are really good, however you should allow a format where you can stop in the middle of the exam and be able to come back to the questions you haven't answered instead of ending the test"

- george

"Just would like to let you know that you are the only provider. I could find that has some teaching material on the clinical cases. That's awsome. I am a pediatrician and not all that strong in treating 70-90 year old patients, which the majority of the cases represent. I really like your program"
