Preparation Strategies For USMLE Step 3
Typically, worldwide examinees require two to three months to prepare for this exam, although in the US, examinees who are American medical school graduates commonly prepare for only a few days to a few weeks. Physicians in post graduate training that plan for fellowships or additional training often are advised to consider more detailed preparation. An examinee is tested on their clinical skills, diagnostic acumen, decision making, treatment guidelines and follow up care. Examinees who are not comfortable preparing for this exam on their own may take review courses, either in person or through distance-learning services. "USMLE World" and "Kaplan" offer test banks and review literature for purchase.

Famous quotes containing the words preparation, strategies and/or step:
“With memory set smarting like a reopened wound, a man’s past is not simply a dead history, an outworn preparation of the present: it is not a repented error shaken loose from the life: it is a still quivering part of himself, bringing shudders and bitter flavours and the tinglings of a merited shame.”
—George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
“By intervening in the Vietnamese struggle the United States was attempting to fit its global strategies into a world of hillocks and hamlets, to reduce its majestic concerns for the containment of communism and the security of the Free World to a dimension where governments rose and fell as a result of arguments between two colonels’ wives.”
—Frances Fitzgerald (b. 1940)
“I grieve that grief can teach me nothing, nor carry me one step into real nature.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
