Hey Guys,

anyone knows if Canadian fundamental knowledge test contains general anatomical science questions or only maxillofacial area questions?

Thanks a lot.

Mosby review is good. It has good amount of information. You will have to look for the answers to the released questions yourself.. I haven't found anybody who has the answers. I wouldn't advice skipping the basic sciences completely.. its 20% of the exam. Skim through it.. maybe the mosby part 1, or if you are short on time then the first aid part 1 (its more brief), but don't completely skip it.

Dental decks is good too. It has questions and answers, and many of the questions are similar to the ndeb released questions.

I do not know why we are studying so hard for the AFK exam. There seems to be no future in Canada as a dentist cause there are 900 people passing the NDEB final exams last year. Most of these new increases is due to NDEB accrediting Australia, New Zealand and Ireland. I have friends in Australia who cannot find jobs as dentists and are now flooding the Canada job market and stealing jobs! We, as internationals, already invests lots into the NDEB 3 step process. Now, there seems to be an oversupply in Canada with yearly 900 increases in dentist population. This is disappointing

Hi I am writing NDEB exam in 2 weeks. I have only studied released questions about 300 pages. Do you think it is enough? How much did you get from released questions in your exam? Thanks a lot for your help.

I came across conflicting reviews about Scammon's growth curve. Don't know what the right answer.

Mandibular growth follows: genital tissues or general body growth?
Decks indicate that mandibular growth follows genital tissues where as mosby says general body growth.
Anybody has a clear understanding of this subject, please help!

i already took the test. i have answers but its for the 660 page packet. the packets are the same but they shuffled the question, and the 660 packet has a lot of duplicate questions but its the one i had and henced worked on it. if you would like i can email the packet for the 660 with the best guessed answers. then in a seperate email i can send you some of the correction a group of us came up with. we ram out of time but managed to verify about 600 pages of the 660 packet. but since the packet has a lot of duplicate question some of those questions may alrready been answered

Hello everyone,

Newbie here and looking at writing the AFK this year. Hoping someone can guide me on:

1. The 2014 questions that are available on the ndeb.ca website - is there a good recommendation someone has for me to seek answers to those questions? I don’t know of any university professors here that can help me (I'm a recent immigrant in Canada) and study groups can often have flawed answers

2. When I compare the "content areas" for the AFK exams with subject areas covered in Mosby's NBDE-2, several topics are not covered. For example under Biomedical sciences which is 20% of the testable material - Oral Microanatomy, Oral Embryology, Growth & Development, General Biochemistry/Cariology and Pathology/Medicine - are four content areas that I cant find under either NBDE-1 or 2. I call these "gaps". There are several such areas tested on the AFK that are missing from the NBDE books. What do you recommend I do in order to prepare for these gaps?

Any help is much appreciated.
