Hi forum members,
I need to take my step 3 soon, in about 6-8 weeks. I have mostly done MTB and UW qs with my own notes for it. Premier review notes seem to be very, very dense, which is good but i dont think i have time for it . those who have dont this exam and others reading PR: what sections would you absolutely read from PR for the step 3 exam?
I work full time so i dont have a ton of time.
thanks, happy Ganesh Chaturthi and Eid . good luck to all of you in your residency quest.

Hi docz
I ve never read pr but I think MTB UW and Kaplan Q book are enough.
My experience is posted on step3 forum. I did 4-5 hours reading 5 days a week.
Just my 2 cents, Hope that help.
good luck to you too.
