New photometric observations of TY Boo, AD Cnc, and V523 Cas are subjected to synthetic light-curve analyses using the Wilson-Devinney code. Solutions for each of the systems, and the several competing theories of contact binary structure are discussed in light of the results. Both AD Cnc and V523 Cas are modeled with subluminous regions, and the resulting starspot parameters are reported. A simultaneous solution of the B, V light curves and the radial-velocity curves of V523 Cas is presented. Spectroscopic and photometric mass ratios were found to be discordant for both TY Boo and V523 Cas. However, recent spectroscopic work by Groissman seems to remove the discordancy for TY Boo. Absolute parameters are derived for V523 Cas.
