I'm a 4th year medical student who has accepted a preliminary medicine position starting in july and will be applying for advanced neurology PGY2 positions. I failed CK twice, but passed with a 230 on 3rd attempt. I would like to study for the Step 3 from now and hopefully take it in September of this year. Any tips on how to study for this test and what materials are highly recommended.

Thanks

This attitude of this post may not totally align with yours given the past failures, but otherwise I think this might be helpful:

What the...failed twice, and got a 230 on 3rd attempt and landed a prelim spot? Must be nice being an AMG! ;-)

I went through USMLE World once and then First Aid step 3 then went through all the missed and marked questions on World. I had to extend my subscription. $$! I passed, but honestly thought I failed it. I was finishing my transitional year then. If I had to do it all over, I would go through FA step 3 2-3x and then USMLE World and the CCS portion you get with World. Good Luck!
