I have exactly 2 weeks until the exam. I have done USMLE world and kaplan Qbook. I am not planning on buying kaplan Qbank at this point because in 2 weeks I would not even make a dent in it and its expensive! Any other ideas of question banks out there that I can use?

thanks guys

Have you tried Falcon's Online and 2go study options?

I would not worry so much about new questions, and would focus on redoing some of the questions you have previously done, only faster. IMHO the hardest thing about Step 3 is that the real questions are much longer than what you find in world, so you are often in far more of a rush. I would subtract 5 minutes from the time limit world gives you and see if you can still finish, because that's closer to the time crunch you will experience.

Most people pass this thing and most people don't do more than a healthy chunk of World and read through one review book. The vast majority of people who take it are interns working 70 hour weeks and squeezing this in on the side. Do what you feel you have to but bear in mind that the competition isn't putting in the same kind of effort that was put in for Step 1.

I am as well finishing up my IM intern year and working 70+ hours. I just want to get in as much studying as possible. Alot of people say this exam is harder than step 1 and 2....so thats kind of scary to hear! I know time on the real test will be a big issue, thats why i wanted to do an extra set of questions.
