hey got my step 3 result ...passed..
what i did for step 3 :
UW=did the whole thing in tutor mode..i used it as a learning tool not assessing tool.
kaplan step 3 Qbank=again in tutor mode
kaplan IM Qbank =tutor mode
i used the above 3 to study .,..i dint read any book for step3
i did the usmle cd 2 wks before the exam =did quite well in them
for ccs=i had the UW cases on my hard disk ,so the 1st time i did it i read through the whole thing ..the 2nd time i used to read only the begining case and then write down the whole thing....i had a set program for what i would do the moment i saw ER /OPD...so atleast the begining is std .in this way i literally learnt up all the cases in UW...
as i havent started residency yet ..i thought this was the only way to get the ccs done
i scored mainly on ccs ..i got all the cases ..except a case on gastric cancer where the case just dint get over inspite of doing everything for the pt.
my other cases were :TB ,child abuse , chf , pcp pneumonia ,blunt abdominal trauma [splenic rupture] , dementia ,
all the best to everyone ! |

I had three cases which I am not sure were O.K. First- Duodenal ulcer, got better, but still had discomfort. The second was Aortic stenosis, the patient lost councessness, I transferred him in ER, but the case finish before to write the Dx. The third the patient became better but again finished without Dx, not becouse I did not know it, but because I did not have an option to write. So, I consider that I have 6 cases right, and 3-not right. Do you think is possible to pass the CCS?I will apretiate any responce. Thank you! |
