Master the Boards USMLE Step 3

To start with, this is an excellent book and beautifully packed with infos my only advice is that this book treats you as a person who knows or had read about the topic and who is just trying to refresh his mind plus adding up the puzzle pieces together. So if you are reading the topic for the first time you need another book along with this because MTB 3 is a MUST TO HAVE book just use it right ! 👌🏾

This is an excellent review book for anyone to sharpen their clinical knowledge, especially in Step 2CK. For the price that it is right now, it is a steal! The Peds chapter is more complete than in MTB Step 2 CK 4th edition. In fact, it was recommended by the Kaplan Chicago faculty, especially for the peds and OBGYN chapters. A smart buy for anyone preparing for step 2CK, and definitely worth reviewing before Step 3!

As medical students and graduates, we have all used Dr. Conrad Fischer as a source at one point or another. He has consistently provided us with textbooks and lectures to aid in preparation for the USMLE Step 1 and Step 2. With USMLE Step 3, his work continues to be an excellent guide. After completion of approximately 120 pages and using that knowledge to answer questions on UWorld, I have noticed a definite improvement in my average. I will update this review as I approach the end of the book. I am enjoying the style of writing of this textbook. "If-then"-type of statements are effectively utilized throughout the book. This makes it easy to memorize high-yield treatment and management steps. The text is concise and clear, yet mostly written in complete sentences, which is important for me. I don't like the high-yield books with lists, which require absolute memorization. As a result of this book's writing style, a story is formed, which is easier to remember. My only complaint is that there could more details about each condition. However, given that this is focusing primarily on high-yield, it makes sense to keep it concise. It will be best to use one or two other sources as reference if you are less than confident about a particular topic. Aside from this book, I am also using UWorld QBank, OnlineMedEd lectures, and Merck Manual. I must also mention that I was confused about a couple of sentences in the cardiology chapter, which I thought were mistakes. To obtain a list of errata, I contacted Dr. Fischer, who responded right away and was willing to clear up any confusion. It turns out after re-reading the paragraphs and gaining a better understanding of the section, I realized that I was wrong about it being a mistake and the book was right. Anyway, if in doubt, read it again. If you are unable to understand it after that, Dr. Fischer seems to be willing to help us out.

There are not a lot of materials out there that are high yield and helpful for preparing for USMLE step 3. This is definitely one of the books that should be in the standard review in conjunction with a question bank. As a psych resident, I had limited medicine rotations so this was very very helpful for my review and helped me improve my scores on the question banks and ultimately pass step 3.

Best step review books out there! I loved the master the boards series for step 2 and the same for step 3 seems to be equally solid. It’s much less overwhelming than the First Aid series where the pages are so dense. Here theres a fair amount of white space and lots of diagrams/flow-charts. Highly recommend.

I know its for step 3 CK but I have been using for step 2 ck review and ot has been great. It's like my baby first aid. Although it's missing a ton of info, no book has ot all, it's still a great resource to have.

This is a great book for step 2 and 3. covers lots of materials and to the extent exam needs. much better than MTB for step 2 ck. highly recommend it for step 2.

For super streamlined fast reading, hard to beat. Just don’t expect the detail you need to get higher scores.

excellent book for step 2..
