Can someone please tell me
-how many hours/ per day and for how many days one needs to study for Step 3
-also is Kaplan the best one for step 3 preparation
-On a scale of 0-10, how difficult is step 3

Thanks,

friend step3 is all about concepts,and practical approach to a clinical setting.more than number of hours what matters is the quality time u commit.The reading speed should b fast as the questions r long.Lot of common sense helps u answer some question.Practice ccs on software on regular basis. ck notes and uw are the best. After u have mastered it think of anything else. Good luck.
