Doesn’t appear so: http://www.usmle.org/applicationmaterials/default.htm

Says for step 3 you have to have passed the first two steps.

But I think that not all states require step 3 as part of the licensing process.

It appears that US citizens who studied in foreign medical schools are eligible for step 3 ONLY if they did their undergraduate work at a US institution. But they have to do a year of the “Fifth Pathway” program. http://www.usmle.org/bulletin/2006/eligibility.htm
