B- subgingival restoration.
C- supragingival scaling.

Please, always state ur source for the answers as I can see that most of the posted answers are wrong, It would make it easier for anyone to understand why any answer is strongly accepted.

According to laskin and Kelly & Kay (Both are book of Oral surgery) Says its hazardous to use Inferior alveolar nerve block in case of Hemophilia, So better to use intraligamentory technique for local anesthesia

Well for Supragingival scalling, its least traumatic to gingiva if its done with proper techinique (Ref: Glickman)

So, this is the support for this answer...

How abt yours??

Thnks

Hi Everyone,
I posted questions ....I would really appriciate if some answer them
thanks

hi any one preparing acfd exam for this september?

All The Best For The Exam
What Are We Suppose To Take Id No And Pencils No Pr Card???

you can take PR card if you want to use that as an ID but if you have canadian drivers licence that is good enough.

Good luck

the questions that khan 2 has written here have all come in the exam...........how does he know that these questions were going to come........every single question came...........i am shocked!!!!!!!!!!

We Are Not Going To Accept That Someone Was Aware About The Questions 5 Days Before Exam And You Cant Say That He Was Guessing Because Each And Every Multiple Choice Is Also Matching With Acfd Paper 2008

I can't believe that someone had the paper before the exam...We should do something about this...Not fair...Not fair...We should call the ACFD...Come on people let's do something before it gets deleted...Please..Take a screen shot of this page as a record...NOW...

......

the questions that khan 2 has written here have all come in the exam...........how does he know that these questions were going to come........every single question came...........i am shocked!!!!!!!!!!
where are those questions? can you help me to find them out? thanks.

where are those questions? can you help me to find them out? thanks.

Look at posts 315 and 316..

If khan2 knew the questions why had he posted them? Would this not be like shooting himslef in the leg? If I knew the questions, I would keep them to myslef. And if I did not know the answers, I would have just asked someone else insted of posting them and possibly make them available to the competion. It dosen't make sense

the strange thing is i couldn't see the post. how come those long thread only shows up to 3 pages. don't understand. what i saw is those posts from 3/2008-5/9/2008 are missing. damn those are the most important...
what's wrong with it?

Look at posts 315 and 316..

YA I AGREE WITH U DOCTORMM .ITS STRANGE ..NEVER HEARD OF LIKE THIS BEFORE..

If khan2 knew the questions why had he posted them? Would this not be like shooting himslef in the leg? If I knew the questions, I would keep them to myslef. And if I did not know the answers, I would have just asked someone else insted of posting them and possibly make them available to the competion. It dosen't make sense

Only Khan22 can say why he posted the questions...Perhaps he did not even realize what he had...The important issue is not that he posted them, it is that "people" had the test..that the test had been leaked...How long has this been happening?...And is this stopping honest hard working "Dentists/Students" from getting accepted in the programme...

the questions that khan 2 has written here have all come in the exam...........how does he know that these questions were going to come........every single question came...........i am shocked!!!!!!!!!!

hi
i think question by khan 2 are basically repeated questions from past 2 years questions. but if anything unethical has taken place then i very sorry to know about that.

No, they are not. It is very improbable that he got right 190 questions out of 200 questions posted. He had inside knowledge. I have already e-mailed ACFD, RCDSO, UofT, UWO. I have included a link to KHAN2 postings in the e-mail body. He also has some other postings from before.
Assuming that what you believe is correct, he had 600 questions from the last two years. How could he have chosen the 200 right questions?
Anyway I do not expect ACFD to take any measures, they will not question one of their own. But I will not let this go. No way. I have already left a message for my lawyer and tomorrow I will re-sent the same e-mail to all the directors and everyone in charge in every single dental association. Maybe someone will do something about it.

......

Should we contact W5 or some other TV stations to get some news coverage?

I Agree with ACFD2007...most of these questions are repeated from previous exams..I had some of these questions on my exam last year. And other questions that I had on my exam that were not on that list were repeated also.

Not all of the questions were in the exam saturday...they were not all...or even most of them in my exam.

I think that maybe "he" and other people together collected the questions that they remembered from various past exams.

I don't know if all of you are taking the exam for the first time but there are a lot of repeated questions on the exam.

I think maybe some people are seeing too much in this situation.

Should we contact W5 or some other TV stations to get some news coverage?
This thread is getting hillarious :laugh:... so happy to be here.

Unfortunately this thread is getting sad, not hilarious. The point is people are getting sick and tired about all the little practices developed in the gray legal area around this exam. Does anyone know why is this Mr. Naresh allowed to operate his little underground business undisturbed by the University or by the police? Is he paying any rights for the books he photocopies and then sells? Did any of you get any receipts?
Why is the EE exam written in pencil and not in pen? Specifically HB pencil. So that the papers can be altered after the exam? HB pencils are the easiest to erase without leaving marks on the paper.
Why are the candidates names on the papers left open? So that the connected students get the marks they "deserve" according to daddy's or uncle's donation to the University? Candidates names should be covered and sealed and only opened after the correction process has taken place.
Why is it taking 4-6 weeks to get the results? So that the connected people have time to operate the changes I was talking about? Correction is a computer job, just put the damn paper in the computer and give me the result...so much for the canadian fairness...give me a break

I'm totally agree with you drmm I mean even if it's from previous exams
are we allowed take the questions out of the exam center?
it doesn't make sense at all.
the regulation indicates that we are not allowed take exam material out of examination center..

This thread is getting hillarious :laugh:... so happy to be here.

If you don't have anything constructive to say please don't mock the few of us who think there is something suspicious going on...Note, I said "think" and not "sure"...This is an inkling...We don't know..Chances are we are wrong...Chances are that this is a very rare coincidence(it is possible)...But at the same time from what we can see in black and white in front of us(the exam paper staring at us few days before the exam), this is how we feel...Again we can be wrong but we can be right too...We are all human beings...So please don't make fun of the few of us that feel this way...We are under enough stress/strain (Modulus Of Elasticity) already, having our lives brought to a stand still, etc.........................

I agree with you;.We have to do something about this! Its really unfair what happened. Just advice us what the steps to do or [process) to make. Im saluting your courage. Thanks for this. I worked hard to review evry single day and night just to pass the acfd exam. I want justice for all of us!!!!!!!!!I will pray for this!God bless us all!!

You can't take materials out of the exam..but if you have a good memory you can sit down afterwards and write down the ones you remember....I wrote more than 80 questions myself from saturday...so if there are 2/3 or more people that share the ones that they remember it can add up pretty fast.

This is a very bad situation for anyone involved. I have been studying for the last 8months for this exam, I don't want it to be annulled. One way or the other its a loose, loose situation for all.

If they anulled the exam we loose the application for most of the universities for this year, if they don't, maybe we all get a worse grade due to possible cheating...I don't know what is worse...

I am sure that there is cheating going on in this exam...so the people that think that this doesn't happen are pretty naive. That's why there are a lot of people taking the NDEB and going to the States..once the exam has to be taken by the american dental students also.

Obviously the people involved in cheating of any sort should be punished...but if this was the case here...if was not the first time and for sure won't be the last unfortunally. There is a lot going on that we have no clue about and that is the sad truth...this exam is not fair.

Hi drMM..
Please update us regarding the letters you wrote to different regulating bodies...I like to write one to ACFD too but am not sure if one or two letters are gonna do anything constructive...Is there anyway that we can find the email addresses for some of the students who wrote the test..I am sure ACFD has the email addresses but I wonder they would give it out...Again, what should we do...We need to stick together and have some legal guidance...Keep us posted..

What dralana1977 says makes very much sense..."It is a loose loose situation", but we can't let it go on like this....When some people have access to Exam Papers, no matter whatever high score you get there are going to be some people who can get a better score ie people with papers, and that narrows our chance of getting in...
In conclusion we need to bring this to a stop somehow....Let us use our brains together and see if we can come up with something that favours the honest ones...I personally think getting the media is not a bad idea...what do you guys/gals think?

I cannot agree with you more.:thumbup:
I am one of the victims. Cheating just lies before us, we must try to protect ourselves since nobody can do that for us.
Just as you said,one or two letters,one or two guys would not make sense. I have written to acfd about the cheating this time, but nobody answers me till now.
We do need to use our brains.Before that,we should be together.

Shall we send our msn or something like that to some one via the pm?
I think once there is an incisor,the premolars and molars will come for sure.

yes I know that you can remember questions from the exam in fact i have also around 100 questions that I was able to write down and looking for the correct answer but this case is different ,,,
if he had from the last 2 years past exams why he would post right before the exam even very simple questions may be I 'm just saying may be
he's not even a foreign dentist.. he could be someone who collect questions for this underground people...
THis is all speculations but I have no doubt that there was something unusual
for the facts:
1)why post the qustions right before the exam
2)if the questions were from the last years why he didn't bother in looking for right answers till now..considering that he doesn't know even very simple questions..
3)why some people has more access to more material like past exams..
I mean we all have graduated from dental school we have almost same knoweldge ..I guess
4)I realized that the ee questions are not difficult the difficulty lies in the answers which is very ambiguous
5)acfd s/b more transparent how they score and why takes so long for the result I mean all qustions are objective
considering all even if we are wrong we should unify our voice and take an egg in our hands and throw to the rock(acfd) I know the egg won't crack the big rock but at least they gonna take time to clean up..
we can write a letter containing same idea and send it to acfd..
or write e mail
but lets organize ...

since there are 100 questions posted, there could be two situations.
one,this guy has only 100 questions, personally,I think it is highly possible. if this guy has all the questions,he/she will post many from the firt part too, rather than mainly from the second part.
the other one,he/she has all the questions.why does he/she post only one third here? i guess he/she knows the keys to the rest questions.
so,if all the questions posted here are excluded, there will be a guy or guys whose scores are very very high,such as 99%. is such a high score trustable?
if there is not such a guy,it is possible that he/she only has these 100 questions.
perhaps the impact on us of the cheating would be eliminated in this way?
what do you guys think?

so,if all the questions posted here are excluded, there will be a guy or guys whose scores are very very high,such as 99%. is such a high score trustable?
if there is not such a guy,it is possible that he/she only has these 100 questions.
perhaps the impact on us of the cheating would be eliminated in this way?
what do you guys think?


question on hepatitis antibodies Ab surface antigen .relation of spenomandibular ligament to IANB needle,muscle of cheek,are some of the new questions which are not included in his post probably he had only past questions. i dont want to think about paper being leaked before the exam because then i will loose my faith in every damn thing over here

I hope they considered this.I hope this message will give us more courage to seek the truth if there was an anomaly or leakage happened. Pls. always post for your feelings about this. Soon it will reveal new developments and new responses. Just hoping & praying to achieve justice! I'm saluting everyone!!!God bless us!!!:):love:

:thumbup:better thing to do than just being negative when so many other things around us are bothering ...................


hi...thats sound good ..so start discussing question here n be united

Hello everyone..
Please take a few moments to email ACFD if you have not already done so because the more people who express their concerns the better...

Everybody stop whining

And do some thing about it, if you are certain that there were cheating involved.
I agree with one of the posters it is a lose- lose situation for every one involved if the exam is annuled.

Time to hit the books.

Amazing

all those who r done with may ee...can u give guidence to those who r preparing for sept. can u tell me if i have enough time starting from now to study for ee?
is there any need to do decks 1?? r shuld i go thru once??
and clinicaly,decks 2 with past ndbe 2 papers are enough or u suggest other materials?
plz plz those of who are done with ee...answer my confusions...thnx in advance:confused:

hi digital braces u have enuf time for prep the imp thing is that u read useful material...in my opinion u dont have to need read deck 1 u can go thru once but dont waste time on that deck 2 nbde part 2 papers and previous canadian papers r enuf but u must read them thoroughly n try to retain as much as u can so good luck n pray 4 us !!!!

hi
how was the exam this may tougher or easier than last may??????:scared::hardy:

Hi every body......

Mostly it is not leakage,it is just some people who got together to remember Qs from the past previous exams,some can recall some Qs with all their choices. This happens with all exams in general,EE,NBDE,MCAT and even the driving test,G1.

Anyways,I'm looking for Frasaco typodent,manikin,head, stands.........is there anyone willing to sell something.I really appreciate any response.
Please,contact me on my email address.
Thank you very much.

hi
how was the exam this may tougher or easier than last may??????:scared::hardy:


no reply:confused:

how long is DDS course for us in UFT

2 years as any other advanced placement programm

Has anyone received any news from the ACFD about the complaints with the may exam?

Yes i recieved a letter from acfd Today stating that , ACFD will remove potentially affected questions from the recent exam prior to scoring.:)

Yes i recieved a letter from acfd Today stating that , ACFD will remove potentially affected questions from the recent exam prior to scoring.:)
what this means????like remove that 100 questions and then score or what???

This could potentially have made it worse for all of us; it depends on the questions they remove.Personally, I hope they don't take out the questions that I answered correctly. I hope well for all you out there too.
We should try to help one another. Most exams worldwide whether it be dentistry, medicine etc. have a pool of remembered questions which are often repeated. Let's be productive and not create a civil war.At the end of the day we all suffer.
Bottom line: we are just immigrants to them. we are just a storm in a tea cup!! They have more important issues to deal with than the foreign graduates fighting amongst themselves & accusing one another of cheating.
Let's get on & discuss dental questions!!!

Shame Shame to all those who were CRY babies and wrote and complained to the ACFD, i just wonder and think how can u guys be so stupid,dont u do your research before the exams. In fact the questions which were posted are all OLD PREVIOUS Exam questions, and our only way to score high marks in the exams is if these questions r repeated every year. But now due to the OVERENTHUSIASM of a few fools we lose that oppurtinity.God forgive them coz these fools do not know what they do.

so surpriesed to hear that. the exams later on are going be much much harder for us. less repetition, lower score. definitely not a good news. :(
you guyz should know that a lot of questions are not from dental decks. it's pretty hard for us to get prepared. working on repeated questions is the only practical way.
don't know how the exam in september will be.

gotta agree with Dr666. y'all who opened Pandora's box gotta learn a thing or two bout damage control. Weldone to the goon-heads out there a regal standing ovation is what you get from me. To the rest of you goodie goodie two shoes playing Holier-than-thou and butter wont melt in your mouth, im calling your bluff.

Unfortunately this thread is getting sad, not hilarious. The point is people are getting sick and tired about all the little practices developed in the gray legal area around this exam. Does anyone know why is this Mr. Naresh allowed to operate his little underground business undisturbed by the University or by the police? Is he paying any rights for the books he photocopies and then sells? Did any of you get any receipts?
Why is the EE exam written in pencil and not in pen? Specifically HB pencil. So that the papers can be altered after the exam? HB pencils are the easiest to erase without leaving marks on the paper.
Why are the candidates names on the papers left open? So that the connected students get the marks they "deserve" according to daddy's or uncle's donation to the University? Candidates names should be covered and sealed and only opened after the correction process has taken place.
Why is it taking 4-6 weeks to get the results? So that the connected people have time to operate the changes I was talking about? Correction is a computer job, just put the damn paper in the computer and give me the result...so much for the canadian fairness...give me a break
u must be kidding me!!!!!
invest this time and work on researching for ur next exam and studying, i think u just opened the doors of hell on ur next exam, there is nothing wrong of writing some previous questions or according to this the the ASDA (american student dental association) would be in big trouble!!, u r really fools and the funny guy calling his lawyer, please give me a break and stop this conspiracy theory thing, its illegal to breach copyright law for sure other than this nothing is wrong i believe!!!

i really would like to thank those idiots who contacted the acfd , and i wana tell them they screwed themelves and screwed us , also hope they dont pass now to see the hell next sep. and for the ppl whoo had some questions from their previous trials to throw them away . and start all over again from zero , :thumbdown

Well now the qs is if they are going to remove 200 qs from the exam then what is left behind? Dont you think that in this situation it wud be a good idea to repeat the exam instead of scoring the same paper?

if those who appealed had got some sense and realized what disaster they have lead to please take ur appeal back for heaven sake

but now it doesnt matter even if they take it back. The thing is now they will change everything and knowing that they wud remove some qs is scary.

hey,,i jus checked da acfd website n they have explained about the may 2008 exam,,,so go n check it in detail...

hey,,i thnk most of the people who r very angry over all this thng are those people who have all these posted questions and in my opinion they r kind of people who have a group of 20 or 30 people ,,whose only purpose is to get all these questions and then find answers and keep all these questions amongst there own communities and thats why u will notice that why some specific nationalities always get scores above 85%...:thumbdown
but thanxz god now hopefully this unfair cheating will be over and there will be a real and fair competition among all of us ,,especially those who dont have access to this unfair cheating and stuff...:mad:
i know some people are very angry bcz all they use to do was to jus memorize those questions that they have n score above 85 or even 90 % and then get admisiion,,but wat about all of us,,who work hard and in the end have to suffer bcz of dese unfair means...
anyways hopefully now these people will have to take another 5,6 years to collect all these questions so far all of us this is the time 2 work hard and kick dre ass!!!!:)

hghdgfhdgfh

i'm out of words to say anything! this is called wasting of brains,time and energy! i wish they had invested it all for preparation of ee.:mad:

no repetition means a lot more than wat v can imagine...all of us preparing for sept ee r probably looking at the test with only 100 q's we might know and the rest from an aliean world(thats wat i think)i'm so hopeless:confused:
how r we suppose to study now. just decks can't b enough.
thanku so much especialy to the guy who for heavans' paid his lawyer too:thumbdown

all those going in sept. wat u think v shuld expect in test. i'm sure no past q's atleast in next ee. :scared:

I knew I shoulda gone to law school, woulda made a kill outta some foreign trained dentist suing the Dental Community.
Gotta love the drama.

Come on big group hug.
No more fighting.

We all hate each other here, its ok to admit it.

i know its gonna be tough from now cz dre wont be any repeat questions but it will be good for most of us:) and only those people will get good scores who realy have good knowledge and have worked hard :thumbup::thumbup:but ya it will be bad for those who only depend on repeated questions and or reconstructed qz ....:mad::mad::mad:sad but true:)

Hey guys now we must decide what has to be done, i have already written to the ACFD that we should not be penalized if as per their investigation when No evidence of wrong doing has been comitted, we should just get the our real score and not any truncated score. the more people write to the ACFD the more reason they would see in our arguement.

when is the result expected any idea

AM one of those angry people i Guess!! :)
took ee long ago ONE time ONLY, and currently a student in QP. From what it looks, u r an angry person and dont care about others, if u take some time to research the exam before entering u wouldn't have said so. Besides its funny u post on this same thread where the questions were posted and u didnt check them out. Hopefully it doesn't take u 5 to 6 years to get in.

i know its gonna be tough from now cz dre wont be any repeat questions but it will be good for most of us:) and only those people will get good scores who realy have good knowledge and have worked hard :thumbup::thumbup:but ya it will be bad for those who only depend on repeated questions and or reconstructed qz ....:mad::mad::mad:sad but true:)

Learn to respect others, besides even memorizing questions is a harder job by the way.its not ur job to say who deserves to be accepted, also when u finish the ee stage soon u will know its not always about scores!!

...

to dr.sunny plz shut up .

i am getting scared as the days are approaching.I can asure you that this melodrama will not help us in any way. all of us are going out of focus --what is our actual focus to pull each other down???? OR TO GET LICENCE:(
I AM REALLY GETTING SCARED OF THE RESULT...................DONT KNOW WHAT IS STORED FOR US
JUST PRAY THAT WE ALL GET UPTO OUR EXPECTATION:scared:

Guns be blazing in here, is it just me or is the schrapnel slicing everyone in here?
Dang talk about tangible tension!
No wonder doors be slamming in our face
When there is no respect/ value for a system this is what happens.
No fingers are pointing, we all contribute in some way to this ugliness

"Im standing with the man in the mirror, oh yea, Im asking him to change his ways....' sing with me,
sing with me.

i would like to help all those who plan to give eligibilty exam. its a tough exam and u need patience and hard work to get good percentage. and even after getting good scores university interviews and practicals are really hard , too much competition on that level.i would recommend to every one who is giving ee that to also give national board part 1 to be on the safe side when the time comes for admission so u wont be disappointed.i would suggest all of you to study oral pathology intensively for ee as 50% of questions are oral patho.peadiatric dentistry is important also . good luck to all.
i say ur message that u are ready to help although its a bit old message but i want ot check if you are still there for help of people blank like me . i dont kno the abc of canadian system . i dont want to waste time here and there .plz if you have time let me know of the system . waiting for reply

Did Anyone Recieved The Ee Result???

no yet.Did you receive it?

No, No I Havent Recieved It. I Was Just Anxious As Its 5th Weeks Going On. So....

We dint get our result yet i called acfd on Monday they said that they dispatched it on last thu but i dint get yet.. so when i called today they said they mailed it yesterday so it may take 3 days more...wish us luck plzzzz hope things go smooth after all this ups and downs..

Just heard that the results r out, highest is 96 and the average is 74 we will probably get ours tomorrow. All the best guys

I can not believe that some people, such as the ones mentioned above and others like them, promote on this forum the promiscuity, the unfairness and the illegal network that has developed around this exam. I do not have proof yet, but I am convinced that some of the professors are as well involved in all this mess. There is no other way that the shop owned by Mr. Naresh can function right in the neighbourhood of the University of Toronto. And this shop is illegal no matter what false pretences uses for functioning. Selling photocopied tests from previous years is illegal.
I could even close my eyes to his illegal business, since everyone has access to it, there is no real advantage for anyone, but I can not close my eyes to seeing 100 questions posted on internet before the EE. You know why? Because 90% of those questions were included in the EE. Those questions were not randomly selected form the previous 3-4 years. Anyone can do the math. If I could select the right questions from the previous years so accurately, I would be playing lottery. Furthermore if anyone reads other forums, this guy has posted another 100 questions on other dental forums.
I do not want anyone to believe that I am targeting any students or dentists. This is not what I want. My target is the unfair and corrupted access system that was put in place by the ACFD, with one purpose: to demoralize and to humiliate the majority of the honest and hard working foreign dentist and to facilitate the access of the “CONNECTED” people. This system has to change for the better.
Let’s take for example this guy who started all this, KHAN2 or whatever his name is. He wants to be a dentist, but he is so retarded that he can’t even answer some of the most basic questions, he had to post them on-line to get answers. And you know what? I do not think that anyone wants their dental problems be treated by such a specimen. Definitely this guy does not deserve to pass the EE.
I do not care how hard my actions are going to make this exam for me. It will be as hard for everyone else, but at least we would all be treated equally, which is not what has been happening so far. I want my exam paper to be sealed, put in a computer and the results provided right away or within 24 hours. I want one session of exams for each year, not two sessions. Why? Because the exams are not the same, which means that two different groups of people are not treated equally. Look at the results now. The average is 74%. In September was 70%. I am not saying it was easier, maybe for some of us it was, but it was different. Someone who got 85% in September (the highest score was 91%) was probably thinking that they had a shot at getting in. Guess what? They won’t. Because the highest score in May is 96%. How is this fair?
There are 72 books on the reference text list. That’s what everyone should be studying. And that’s it.
Like I said before, I will not let this one go away. Because is my right to be treated fair. I do not think that I am.

has any one got the result

yep result has out......who has got the 96% ...n e idea?????

Hi ,
I heard that many people scored in nineties in May 2008,is it true.Hay i am interested in buying mankin set, hand pieces,etc. if any one is interested in selling those items ,pl reply.:luck:

IM VERY GLAD THAT YOU KNEW WHAT HAPPENED & THE INCONVENIENCE THAT LEAD US TO FAILED THE EE. ITS VERY UNFAIR THAT THEY REMOVED THE LEAK QUESTION AND MOST LIKELY MY CORRECT ANSWERS. I FAILED THE EE, I GOT LESS BEC. OF WHAT THEY DID? MAYBE IT'S BETTER THEY REPEAT AGAIN THE EXAM SO THAT IT WILL BE FAIR TO EVERYBODY! PLS. TELL ME WHAT'S YOUR VIEW ABOUT THIS. AGAIN, WE HAVE TO UNITE TO OBTAIN JUSTICE!PLS EMAIL ME OR SENT RESPONSE WITH THIS. THANKS & GOD BLESS!:idea:

If khan2 knew the questions why had he posted them? Would this not be like shooting himslef in the leg? If I knew the questions, I would keep them to myslef. And if I did not know the answers, I would have just asked someone else insted of posting them and possibly make them available to the competion. It dosen't make sense
doctor MM i'm not agree with you.What did you do and warn ACFD cause big problem.you know after that instead to register for exam inACFD you have to write KHAN2 please please register me for examen of september 29.be realistic.you want tosay till now the ACFD and universities didn't know about this forum and the constructed question that is beetween student. i dont think so .every time the level of the score go up ACFD do something .this year we have more than 20 person up to score 90.after you how univerties qualifie between them . come on guys:wow:

all to those nut shells who cant accept the FACTS n havnt learnt still that they r only digging graves for themselves. plz just cut it OK. its enough i think. cuz the rest of us who r here studying hard dont want some hyper fools to create more problems for us in sept or even after. leve acfd alone and spare for wat has happened. if somebody failed r didnt get as much high score i think they should analyize their own study strength than blaming it all on acfd or khan2 or watever. i think v all need to cum out of this turmoil now or it will only drown us farther and JUS STUDY n work hard plz.
and i agree with the last post about sdn in being notice of acfd. ofcourse it is and if ppl think otherwise than they shuld accept this fact too.
God bless u all

What happened had to be done long time ago, and this should go on to eliminate all the repeated questions from this exam. Here is why:
1-These questions are not accessible to everyone. Instead they are secretly exchanged by applicants in their own communities... which is unfair... now this has nothing to do with the ADA Boards and ASDA legally released questions available to all. Do not compare.
2-Not everybody knows about that Narish (I didnt)... This too is unfair
3-Not everyone knows about this forum..unfair too.
4-High scorers were those who redid the exam multible times, and remembered more questions. Without repeating questions, only well prepared candidates can score high in the test, no matter how many times one writes the exam. Isn't is awesome?
5-Agree that this way the mean would be lower, and the higher score would be lower, unless the ACFD adjust them. Not a big deal because the competition is always dependant on the applicant pool.
6-Exam items reproduction is against the exam policy. You signed on that before writing the exam, so stop cheating.

As for me, May 2008 was my first attempt, and I made it my last by hard working, but that couldnt be possible without removing the repeated questions, which made the exam fair to everyone who prepared well, and didn't just memorize remembred stuffs. My advice: concentrate on the ACFD references list, and stop gathering poorly constructed remembered questions with missing options which are likely to be the right answers, as far as I noticed in this thread:).

Hello everybody, I have been silently observing the discussion since last 2 months. Please restrain yourself from using names or accusing a particular person. Here are some facts.

1. May 2008 results - More than 25 students with above 90%
- More than 55 studetns above 85%
The result was unduly high.

2. Simply memorizing past questions is not enough. Each person has to read for atleast 5 hours a day to achive a good score for atleast 45 days.

3. Using personal names without proof leaves open ground for defamation law suite with solid proof on the hands of the other party.

Please use this site to organise your efforts, build a team, bring in your queries, make professional friends.. even find your soul mate..if I may.

Best of luck. and as someone had rightly put it in a previous post...........................stop digging your own grave.

I FAILED THE EE, I GOT LESS BEC. OF WHAT THEY DID? MAYBE IT'S BETTER THEY REPEAT AGAIN THE EXAM SO THAT IT WILL BE FAIR TO EVERYBODY! PLS. TELL ME WHAT'S YOUR VIEW ABOUT THIS. AGAIN, WE HAVE TO UNITE TO OBTAIN JUSTICE!PLS EMAIL ME OR SENT RESPONSE WITH THIS. THANKS & GOD BLESS!:idea:
Sorry you failed it, but its not anybody's fault that you only could answer/know repeated questions. You can repeat the test next September.

Best of luck

i was just going thru d previous discussions...

cummon guys lets invest r energies in d right direction n leave all d worries 4 acfd....:meanie:

n now can ne1 plzzz help me.... i 'll b taking EE for d first time... i'm from india... doing my intern ... will take EE in may...:)

if u cld giude me abt d refernce books n stuff...:confused:

thnx...:luck:

What happened had to be done long time ago, and this should go on to eliminate all the repeated questions from this exam. Here is why:
1-These questions are not accessible to everyone. Instead they are secretly exchanged by applicants in their own communities... which is unfair... now this has nothing to do with the ADA Boards and ASDA legally released questions available to all. Do not compare.
2-Not everybody knows about that Narish (I didnt)... This too is unfair
3-Not everyone knows about this forum..unfair too.
4-High scorers were those who redid the exam multible times, and remembered more questions. Without repeating questions, only well prepared candidates can score high in the test, no matter how many times one writes the exam. Isn't is awesome?
5-Agree that this way the mean would be lower, and the higher score would be lower, unless the ACFD adjust them. Not a big deal because the competition is always dependant on the applicant pool.
6-Exam items reproduction is against the exam policy. You signed on that before writing the exam, so stop cheating.

As for me, May 2008 was my first attempt, and I made it my last by hard working, but that couldnt be possible without removing the repeated questions, which made the exam fair to everyone who prepared well, and didn't just memorize remembred stuffs. My advice: concentrate on the ACFD references list, and stop gathering poorly constructed remembered questions with missing options which are likely to be the right answers, as far as I noticed in this thread:).

So you mean to say, you passed the ee? Its your first & last exam or you will to take again nedxt sept. Pls reply thanks

Hello everyone..
Please take a few moments to email ACFD if you have not already done so because the more people who express their concerns the better...
Hi Did you pass the exam? Pls reply thanks

:thumbup:better thing to do than just being negative when so many other things around us are bothering ...................
Hi Did you pass the exam? Pls reply thanks

Everybody stop whining

And do some thing about it, if you are certain that there were cheating involved.
I agree with one of the posters it is a lose- lose situation for every one involved if the exam is annuled.

Time to hit the books.
Hi Did you pass the exam? Pls reply thanks

Has anyone received any news from the ACFD about the complaints with the may exam?
Hi Did you pass the exam? Pls reply thanks

Yes i recieved a letter from acfd Today stating that , ACFD will remove potentially affected questions from the recent exam prior to scoring.:)
Hi Did you pass the exam? Pls reply thanks

This could potentially have made it worse for all of us; it depends on the questions they remove.Personally, I hope they don't take out the questions that I answered correctly. I hope well for all you out there too.
We should try to help one another. Most exams worldwide whether it be dentistry, medicine etc. have a pool of remembered questions which are often repeated. Let's be productive and not create a civil war.At the end of the day we all suffer.
Bottom line: we are just immigrants to them. we are just a storm in a tea cup!! They have more important issues to deal with than the foreign graduates fighting amongst themselves & accusing one another of cheating.
Let's get on & discuss dental questions!!!
Hi Did you pass the exam? Pls reply thanks

Shame Shame to all those who were CRY babies and wrote and complained to the ACFD, i just wonder and think how can u guys be so stupid,dont u do your research before the exams. In fact the questions which were posted are all OLD PREVIOUS Exam questions, and our only way to score high marks in the exams is if these questions r repeated every year. But now due to the OVERENTHUSIASM of a few fools we lose that oppurtinity.God forgive them coz these fools do not know what they do.
Hi Did you pass the exam? Pls reply thanks

i really would like to thank those idiots who contacted the acfd , and i wana tell them they screwed themelves and screwed us , also hope they dont pass now to see the hell next sep. and for the ppl whoo had some questions from their previous trials to throw them away . and start all over again from zero , :thumbdown
Hi Did you pass the exam? Pls reply thanks

hey,,i thnk most of the people who r very angry over all this thng are those people who have all these posted questions and in my opinion they r kind of people who have a group of 20 or 30 people ,,whose only purpose is to get all these questions and then find answers and keep all these questions amongst there own communities and thats why u will notice that why some specific nationalities always get scores above 85%...:thumbdown
but thanxz god now hopefully this unfair cheating will be over and there will be a real and fair competition among all of us ,,especially those who dont have access to this unfair cheating and stuff...:mad:
i know some people are very angry bcz all they use to do was to jus memorize those questions that they have n score above 85 or even 90 % and then get admisiion,,but wat about all of us,,who work hard and in the end have to suffer bcz of dese unfair means...
anyways hopefully now these people will have to take another 5,6 years to collect all these questions so far all of us this is the time 2 work hard and kick dre ass!!!!:)
Hi Did you pass the exam? Pls reply thanks

Learn to respect others, besides even memorizing questions is a harder job by the way.its not ur job to say who deserves to be accepted, also when u finish the ee stage soon u will know its not always about scores!!
Hi Did you pass the exam? Pls reply thanks

Did Anyone Recieved The Ee Result???
Hi Did you pass the exam? Pls reply thanks

I can not believe that some people, such as the ones mentioned above and others like them, promote on this forum the promiscuity, the unfairness and the illegal network that has developed around this exam. I do not have proof yet, but I am convinced that some of the professors are as well involved in all this mess. There is no other way that the shop owned by Mr. Naresh can function right in the neighbourhood of the University of Toronto. And this shop is illegal no matter what false pretences uses for functioning. Selling photocopied tests from previous years is illegal.
I could even close my eyes to his illegal business, since everyone has access to it, there is no real advantage for anyone, but I can not close my eyes to seeing 100 questions posted on internet before the EE. You know why? Because 90% of those questions were included in the EE. Those questions were not randomly selected form the previous 3-4 years. Anyone can do the math. If I could select the right questions from the previous years so accurately, I would be playing lottery. Furthermore if anyone reads other forums, this guy has posted another 100 questions on other dental forums.
I do not want anyone to believe that I am targeting any students or dentists. This is not what I want. My target is the unfair and corrupted access system that was put in place by the ACFD, with one purpose: to demoralize and to humiliate the majority of the honest and hard working foreign dentist and to facilitate the access of the “CONNECTED” people. This system has to change for the better.
Let’s take for example this guy who started all this, KHAN2 or whatever his name is. He wants to be a dentist, but he is so retarded that he can’t even answer some of the most basic questions, he had to post them on-line to get answers. And you know what? I do not think that anyone wants their dental problems be treated by such a specimen. Definitely this guy does not deserve to pass the EE.
I do not care how hard my actions are going to make this exam for me. It will be as hard for everyone else, but at least we would all be treated equally, which is not what has been happening so far. I want my exam paper to be sealed, put in a computer and the results provided right away or within 24 hours. I want one session of exams for each year, not two sessions. Why? Because the exams are not the same, which means that two different groups of people are not treated equally. Look at the results now. The average is 74%. In September was 70%. I am not saying it was easier, maybe for some of us it was, but it was different. Someone who got 85% in September (the highest score was 91%) was probably thinking that they had a shot at getting in. Guess what? They won’t. Because the highest score in May is 96%. How is this fair?
There are 72 books on the reference text list. That’s what everyone should be studying. And that’s it.
Like I said before, I will not let this one go away. Because is my right to be treated fair. I do not think that I am.

We Are Not Going To Accept That Someone Was Aware About The Questions 5 Days Before Exam And You Cant Say That He Was Guessing Because Each And Every Multiple Choice Is Also Matching With Acfd Paper 2008
Hi Did you pass the exam? Pls reply thanks

the strange thing is i couldn't see the post. how come those long thread only shows up to 3 pages. don't understand. what i saw is those posts from 3/2008-5/9/2008 are missing. damn those are the most important...
what's wrong with it?
Hi Did you pass the exam? Pls reply thanks

I cannot agree with you more.:thumbup:
I am one of the victims. Cheating just lies before us, we must try to protect ourselves since nobody can do that for us.
Just as you said,one or two letters,one or two guys would not make sense. I have written to acfd about the cheating this time, but nobody answers me till now.
We do need to use our brains.Before that,we should be together.

Shall we send our msn or something like that to some one via the pm?
I think once there is an incisor,the premolars and molars will come for sure.
Hi Did you pass the exam? Pls reply thanks

If you don't have anything constructive to say please don't mock the few of us who think there is something suspicious going on...Note, I said "think" and not "sure"...This is an inkling...We don't know..Chances are we are wrong...Chances are that this is a very rare coincidence(it is possible)...But at the same time from what we can see in black and white in front of us(the exam paper staring at us few days before the exam), this is how we feel...Again we can be wrong but we can be right too...We are all human beings...So please don't make fun of the few of us that feel this way...We are under enough stress/strain (Modulus Of Elasticity) already, having our lives brought to a stand still, etc.........................

Hi I just want to know what's your reaction when they said that the questions that you had been posted were all leaked question for the May 2008.Did you pass the ee? Thanks for replying

:luck:
Are you a Filipino? Have you taken the ee lately? Did you pass it? What's your recation about posted questions? Pls. reply TY

Milk is the best place to put the tooth in because of its pH (6.5-6.8) and can be conserved for up to 6 hours

Saliva is the second choice after milk, up to 2 hours

(if the patient is not carefull, he can swallow the tooth before he arrives to the clinic :laugh:)
Hi Did you pass the exam? Pls reply thanks

Did'nt took the exam in may , will be doing it this september.

It's obvious that this site is on the radar of the ACFD which makes it difficult to openly discuss some issues now.
If there are 2 or 3 other like minded people out there that are willing to get down to some solid work for the exam let me know. I passed a similar exam in Europe where we attacked the paper in a specific, systematic manner with 4 of us in the group; we all passed comfortably!! I moved to Canada as I followed my husband. The technique we used can work here, but it needs a collective approach. It doesn't matter too much which part of Canada you're in but it means spending lengthy time either on the phone if not in person. We are better of together as opposed to being individuals lost in the vastness of this country & spending years repeating the exam. Please contact me if you're interested via the contact member link.
