I work full time from 7am to 5:30pm daily so I studied 6 pm to 11pm daily. I had a good study partner and stuck with him. I used usmleworld, went through it twice and did MTB 4 times. I did uwsa and nbme. My uwsa projected me at 219, my nbme projected me at 220 1 week prior.
I did not have enough time to practice ccs cases. I did a few scattered cases with a ccs partner for a few weeks. I mainly paid attention to the CCS sections of MTB. I initially had a partner that used multiple sources and detached away from her as I was losing focus. Bottomline is uwsa and MTB are all you need to pass. Uworld ccs cases are more than sufficient. Dont memorize cases but have focus.

Sorry for the typo, have a general approach to solving different types of cases as I got 5 totally new wierd cases on the exam. I did a few mksap questions on areas highlighted as weaknon mksap. Above all, I calmed myself down on that day, rested well, took enough food and red bull to the exam and prayed. Also practice using the ccs software on the official usmle page.
U will be fine:-)
