Hi toothfairyqueen
I have read your earlier posts,you are really very very helpful.
Thanks for your reply.I have checked my state website and It says I have to give the RHS component of the exam and not the infection control and General chairside component.
But I dont know how to prepare for this RHS Exam .
IS there any study material available to study for the exam?
THANKS

I am not sure if you can work in other states too with this ... every state has different set of rules .. you may want to particular state board

IS that a state exam or nationally valid exam? Can I work in other states after this exam?

Yes you need a work Visa .. It could be H1 / Green Card / EAD ... Only then it makes sense to pursue this course .. or you can still do to improve your resume ...
