Since this book was initially created by former students who passed the USMLE, it has many features that students are looking for: No diagnoses are listed in the table of contents! This might bother you at first, but remember, you are not going to get that on the exam either! There are over 200 unique, "real-life" cases for you to test yourself. And there is more than just one case for one specific illness. Furthermore, this book is not intended to be an exam-simulation! This book was designed to get you thinking in the way you will be tested. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - very good Step 3 CCSVery good for practicing for the Step3 CCS, small size easy to carry anywhere, does not tell you the diagnostic until the end so force you to think and exercise each clinical case Rating:  - Awful bookI must admit that I bought this book based mostly on the ratings previous customers had given it.

It's unique way of "withholding" the diagnosis until the end of the case makes this book a class above the rest. USMLE-used lab values (with SI reference intervals) are in the back of the book - also a tool which is excellent for use in a clinical, everyday setting. The index lists the diagnoses, and the table of contents ...

Each case has a unique way to teach the student how to approach and treat a patient. It is written in such a way that it is very easy to read and understand. In my opinion is this the only book you need to pass the USMLE step 3 CCS. (I passed it!) I tried several other books but this is definetely the best book to pass the USMLE ... Read More
