if you can get your hands on the MKSAP 15 use it!!!
It helped me to score 245.
In retrospective, Master the boards is not better/worse than First aid,they complement each other.

PR has tons of chapters/subdivisions so i doubt anyone will post a whole list of what's essential to read out of that (unless it's just a couple of sections).

Hi docz .. I think you are already in PGY2 IM. So for you just Kaplan CK notes and UW QBank with UW CCS will fetch high 90s in step 3.

mariano i have MKSAP 15,( and books for 14) but I wont use it, its for the IM boards. I am in a residency program and we routinely use it for board review and everyone agrees its too much for step 3. thanks for your input. I guess no one uses PR

Hi docz ... u r right. I am the same person. Glad to see you happy with the decision you took. Yes time flies like anything. You ll be applying to pulmonary and Critical Care fellowship, right?? I have applied to IM programs on 8th Sep. Till now 2 interviews, 3 acknowledgements and 0 rejections. Hope to match this year. Can you give some tips on interviewing? Any good books to prepare for interviews? To be frank I have never been interviewed in my whole life time and it will be totally a new experience for me.
