Editorial Review:

Product Description:
Kaplan’s Step 3 book, with vibrant full-color medical illustrations, will be the first book that covers the content of the exam in a logical and methodical fashion, emphasizing the following for several categories of residency:

  • A logical step-by-step approach to management
  • An assessment of severity, prognosis, and next course of action for specific conditions
  • How to prioritize while managing, especially in emergency or acute cases
  • An outline of signs/symptoms and diagnostic or lab tests that signify the need for change in management approaches
  • An outlined follow-up schedule and necessary monitoring approach for specific patient circumstances


This book will also review how to approach Clinical Case Scenarios, which make up 20% of a students' final score.

The USMLE Step 3 exam evaluates a resident's ability to practice unsupervised medicine. It is a 2 day exam. Day 1 features 336 multiple-choice questions; day 2 features 144 multiple-choice questions and 9 Clinical Case Scenarios.

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - I used this book for Step 3. I hope I passed the test.
I scored a 220 on the step 2 with the step up series. For the step 3 and I used Conrad Fischer's book entited Master the Boards and studied for 1 month. I took the first part of the exam today and I am hoping I passed. I felt so underprepared. I don't recommend using this book as prep for the exam all by itself.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - spelling problems

I feel in a generalized way satisfied with the book but I feel that this book it wasn't rewiewed before it was printed.
The shipping was faster than I have had expected, also the book was in very good conditions, but I have found some spelling mistakes that it shouldn't be in the book if it is reviewed.
I'm going to show you some examples: pg 26, 27 and 30 Atovoquone. Pg 79 polyuryia. pg 101 methyl prednisilone. pg. 112 respriratory. pg.119 prostasacyclin and even more...

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Concise and Interesting to read! Highly recommended!
I purchased this book after thinking a lot because i already had Kaplan entire Step 3 notes and didnt want to spend more. However i decided to buy anyways since it was my last exam and did'nt want to take any chances. To my surprise i found this book extremely interesting to read. Once i started reviewing this book i realized that it was very concise and informative. I will certainly without a second thought recommend this book for anyone who wishes to study for Step 3.

Happy reading!
