Hi, Rajini
It would not hurt you to prepare and read from kaplan notes..once you take a look at the notes ..you can guage it yourself .!!!!!!...Why don't you get the notes from someone and take a look at it ...I feel DA and Biochem is really good from it ..
and there are good charts ..explained very well..
Good luck

Hi Toothlord,

Thanks a lot.I got the information I was looking for.
 
can anybody tell the difference betn 2001 decks and 2004 decks.
I am reappearing for part and have 2001 decks so just worried about that.
thanx in advance
 
hey all...........i will tell u something........ i did 1998 patho micro today.... i got 75 only.......fine its first time.......but then that is the last paper i was doing ...........does that mean thats what i will get in exam also,......ok 2-3 Q i did not read properly.......what abt the rest.......i mean every body says do decks and old papers........i am worried............

:scared: :scared: :scared: :scared:
 
Hi meetlife!
Relax... it's ok.
It's just the first time that you are doing the papers.
I felt something similar when i initially started doing the papers...the difference , i did the papers from the old ones to the new ones sequence.that helps quite a lot as there are quite a few repetitions and by the time you do 3-4 papers you are thorough with them and you also tend to read up the relevant things(doubts) from books etc...
One thing is you can assess you percentile from the comparision sheet provided ( its there on links of interest i suppose)...that's what you may make during the exam.
Also it's just your first time with the papers...trust me as you continue doing them...things will look up and you will score well and get the confidence you need.We've all been through that phase...so boost up your confidence and study...Good luck with your preparation.:thumbup:


P.S. to all others out there taking up part 1 i'd suggest you do the decks twice before hitting the papers.

i searched for the link............could not find it+pity+ .....please help me with this......
thanks alot......
 
well, im going up for it. and HAVE to, to match for '05. just finished dental school. now just bumming, feels good, but miss working on people. i start studying hardcore tommorrow, thats what i said yesterday, and the day before. LOL.

ive studied here and there. im starting the anatomy decks right now. then on to DA and patho/micro decks. i read the kaplan, but decided not to do the kaplan anatomy, too much volume, too little time. i hope to get through the decks in 4-5 weeks, then do old exams, which stink since some answers dont make any sense and there isnt any explanations.(does not save you time).

hope to get through the decks 2 times and questions 2 times.
to get the magic number 9... maybe if i review them 3 times. lets see.

there is 13 weeks left!!!!

remember, our scores depend on others.:rolleyes:

Hii all,

I read somewhere, "To take NBDE-1, International graduates must have their Official Dental School Transcripts verified by ECE inc "

Could someone please enlighten as to what would these "OFFFICIAL DENTAL SCHOOL TRANSCRIPTS" be (for an Indian Dental Graduate) ??

Many thanks,
Tooth_wize

hi tooth_wize......check ece.org or topics of interest to foreign dentists......its the first post..........
 
What do you think the best dental deck, kaplan, or toymed. I heard toymed is given the review for free. Still check it out. I know there is another review material such as National dental boards book. Is that one helpful
 
hi guys

I was wondering if u guys could tell me which book r u using for Oral histology ??? i havent done this part and i dont have any idea which book to use .

Thanx

BOND
 
Mr.Bond

pls do NOT waste your time reading Oral Histology books......just do the decks and asda reprints.....nothing out of that is asked......are you done with Physio and Biochem......read Lippincott if you must.....not Orbans....gpg
 
hi gpg

Well i am done with the physiology part but not the biochemistry i actuall was going through the Anamtomy part and it has 16 ques from the histology so i was kind of scared i want to cover everything this time so i thought i should read some review book too.
I am going to do the deck and past papers definitly.I got the new dental deck yesterday so i havent looked into it yet though
Thanx gpg really appreciate ur reply

Thanks

Hi Toothzone,
Acording to my friends its a big waste of time.... it will only confuse u more. Texts, decks, old test papers, kaplan review notes should be more than sufficient. The Q-bank online definately sounds more useful than it actually is. Thats my opinion.
good luck studying

well bond......as such no need to do histo from any book
ok if u still want to do the histo just flip through the pages of oRBANS........ENAMEL.....DENTINE.....PULP nad TOOTH DEVELOPMENT should be sufficient................give one day......thats it.....or do u have a oral histo record of 2nd year with u where u used to draw the slides.......just see that once.........ok if u want a review book part -1 reviewc by wells and reads has something abt oraL HISTO..........hope this helps....
all the best....
do well....

Hi meetlife,
I used a book called Vander, Sherman and Luciano's Human Physiology by Eric P. Widmaier, Hershele Raff and Kevin T Strang. Its excellent, each chapter has a list of questions at the end and a short summary. It has online resources too. Its published by McGraw-Hill. Try and see if you can get your hands on it. They have a lot of flow charts, makes things easier to remember, and neurophysiology is given well.

Cheers!
 
Thanx metlife

I think i am going to flip through the pages of orbans i dont plan to spend a lot of time on this tough. Thanx again

I am also not able to open the website u posted what is abt?


BOND
 
Hi meetlife,nondentist n Bond
Those are real cool sites.Thanx a lot for them :love: :clap:
Bond.....as meetlife sais going thro' Orban's will be enough for Histo.

HI metlife

When u attempt the quiz there is a button for get ur score it would tell u how many of ur answers were correct ,there is no explanation of the answers though.
Well i tried couple of questions and if my answer was wrong i would try it again until i get the correct answer. I hope it makes sense.
 
Guys,
I just checked out the website toymed & there are alot of good questions there.... alot of spelling mistakes but all in all good questions.
Also it is free but u do need to register....
check it out...
Bye,
Treasure
