Hi Angel Thanks for visiting my journal So how did you start your step 3 prep? I can't do UW yet coz I wanna do that when I pass my CS. I can't waste money subscribing to UW. Right now I have Master The Boards only. I'm trying to look for CRUSH and FA pdf files so I won't have to buy them. But I may end up buying them on Amazon... Keep going on your prep dear! You're almost done!!!

thanks DL for dropping by here... i actually started my preparation with MTB n kaplan qbank ....but then dint finish both n had to go back to india for some visa stamping
had a break there...so was difficult to restart after coming back so began reading ck books n MTB n some kaplan step 3 but then thought no use of wasting time here n there without a plan.... then started with UW mcq'sn doing them subjectwise tutor mode....still doing that,,,,not finished yet n reading kaplan ck books
my plan is to finish reading kaplan books n UW n MTB atleast till 21st of this month so that i can proceed with ccs then
anyways my preparation is not an ideal one...had many ups n downs....made many promises to myself n then broke them all but now i m on right track i hope.... even get some bad days in btw ...whioch are festivals so there is not much studying ....
now time for update.... did respiratory from MTB,kaplan Ck and UW .....still have to write down explanations from UW in my book will write them tomorrow take care everyone....

You had a bumpy start but that's ok Angel At this stage it's hard to refocus since this is the last step we're taking
But now I see that you are doing well

Hehehehe No I'm still trying to gather review materials. Will start next week- by hook or by crook!  
Did you use Swanson at all? Is it the Swanson Family Practice Review or Swanson Family Medicine Review? Is it a reviewer or just MCQs? 
Thanks dear. Keep on going. You're almost done with the USMLE!!!
