Okay, I've taken Step III, twice.
( I did not begin residency)
I've noticed that I totally failed the CCS section on both attempts.
The first time I took Step III, I superficially reviewed the UW CCS cases, covering about 23 cases. On my second attempt I did roughly 47 out of 52 cases, twice, while actively taking notes.
During the actual exam, I remember that about 2 of the 9 cases, the patient died (or rather, they did not respond positively?)
I've studied Premier Review Step 3 notes and Conrad Fischer's Step 3 book. UW CCS and a fraction of the UW qbanks. I've also looked at the CCSworkshops (a pre-recorded online CCS training program).
Are there any programs or tutoring services that guarantee a passing Step III? Falcon? Pass? Kaplan Test Prep seems to avoid CCS altogether.
Thanks in advance.
