warning - I just got my NBDE scores and I am upset, I failed!!!

[verticalbitewin]

I studied the dental decks and the FIRST AID book.

Mainly I memorized from front to back the FIRST AID book and I am so upset, I failed the exam. 70!!! AAAAAAHHHH.

So my main reason for loggin on here was to tell everyone, DO NOT PUT ANY WEIGHT ON THE FIRST AID BOOK AT ALL. The test questions were extremely much more detailed than this book, it really has ruined my career.

I have a 3.6 GPA and now have failed the boards for the first time due to this book. I am so upset.

honey ,
i know this can be very disheartening.
i took the exam in dec 2007 and got my result after two months exactly cause of the mail not delivering or some thing like that , and got 77.
i am an international tarined dentist.
so though technically i have passed , it's not good enough for me to get admisiion .
i was depressed for quiet a while.

so i understand you must be feeling not on top of the world.
just hang in there gal.
best wishes.
