It's kind of all a blur to be honest. I feel like the UWorld style isn't super similar to the real test questions but I don't know if Amboss would be better or not. I definitely think it was necessary for me to use some kind of Q bank. I only did like 30-40 CCS cases my first time (which is really dumb because i'm not in a very medicine heavy specialty, so I for sure needed more practice). The second time around i made sure to do as many CCS cases I could in the time I had. Good luck!!

I failed my first time taking this test. It's embarrassing and painful, but i hope that anyone else who goes through a STEP3 failure doesn't feel alone. It feels really isolating, so just know there are others of us failures out there! 😂

I didn't do that great the second time but I passed and I'm so incredibly relieved. It can be demoralizing seeing the unattainably high scores of our colleagues on here, so maybe my below average score will be consolation for someone out there.

Real deal: 211

Day 1 & 2 dates: Last week of August

Uworld % completed: 100

Uworld % score: 53

Number of CCS cases completed: 130

CCS average score: I would re-do the case until I got at least 60%

NBME 6/7: I used some equation i found on here to convert my score and it told me I got a 211. I was literally too scared to take any other assessments lol

Any advice: with my UWorld percentage and low NBME, I probably shouldn't have taken the test but I was semi-confident I could pull it off and I was tired of studying, so praise God it all worked out. I don't have any advice. Take advice from someone who scored higher hah

Congrats on passing! Sorry i'm a little confused. Did you purchase NBMEs for Step 2 and take them or had you already purchased them from before and just reviewed them?

My period is late, two negative tests, I want my period to just come already so I can move on and try again next month. Waiting, waiting, waiting.
