Hi guys, im starting my step 3 prep soon, please could anyone advise what prep materials are best and what should I start with first? so far this is what ive seen on the forum :
KAPLAN STEP 3 LECTURE NOTES AND VIDEOS
MASTER THE BOARDS 3
UW CCS CASES
UW QBANK
KAPLAN QBOOK
ARCHER VIDEOS
NBME

is there anything more that I need and also what do I start with first?

mapping ccs 100 cases

The above materials should be sufficient. Good luck

Everything you mentioned are great and you don't need Kaplan lectures that takes up more time and does not cover step 3 as good as Archer does.

what is mapping ccs? where can I get it from?

mapping ccs is a program that offers practical details of management of 100 ccs cases.
The difficulty of ccs comes from the fact that knowing the management of the disease is not enough to manage the ccs case, unless you know how the apply what you know on the software program, so reading notes and listen to videos may not be enough unless you see the application of the management steps on the software.
mapping is very good in showing you details.
