: I would suggest that your STEP-2 CK books you have prepared, would give you an overall coverage of all the subject areas (Med/Surg/OBG/Peds/Psych/Prevent Med) 
In addition you can study UW MCQs/CCS cases and NBME/Kaplan/First Aid review courses whichever you prefer.
Finally practice the CCS cases on the USMLE CD until you are comfortable with the software.
GOOD LUCK


: Hi,



I am planing to start studying for step 3 but I have no idea about how to start. I dont know what books or software should I use. Could you please tell me how to get prepared for the test? I will appreciate your help.



Thanks





: Great to know that i passed the exam.







I would like to give a word of advice from my experiences,and it would be nice if it helps anyone taking the exam.







Basically everything is in the confidence you get from your own preparation, guided with UW/NBME/Kaplan or other wonderful resources.







The general pathway to the exam/clinical skills is through the "ABCD APPROACH/ADC VAAN DISML" orders of management, with the specific orders depending on the clinical scenario you come across. 







ABCD: (Airway/Breathing/Circulation/Emergency Drugs/Disposition/Diagnostics/Therapeutics)







ADC VAAN DISML: (Admission diagnosis/Disposition/Condition/Vitals/Allergies/Activity/Nursing Instructions/Diet/IV fluids/SCDs & GI prophylaxis/Medications-Consults/Counselling/Labs)







GOOD LUCK WITH STEP-3
