I m working on patients here. Check if u il get to do dat..else its too much money for a month.
 
No patient exposure.... its al Pre clinical....ya it's way too much for jst 1 month. ... bt since apart from observerships I have no other US experience nd as per need of the hour nd no other course available, I was planning to tk it.... its on visitor visa so... m really confused....
 
Those who had an interview today and yesterday, can you please share your experience. What was asked in bench exam and interview questions? How long was the bench and interview and how was the atmosphere?
Thank you in advance for the feedback

My interview is on 9-10 sep. I think they r done vth invites. They mentioned few excercises in the manual nd dey il choose from them for that day.
Bridge prep, class 2,class 3 cutting nd restoration,rpd design,endo prep,temp crown nd written exam on treatment planning/ dental philosophy monologue.
 
@Indian Dent thank you for replying. It's a good amount of procedures for the exam? Are you taking any course for the preparation and What do you mean by dental philosophy monologue? Can you explain in short? Thank you in advance

I am doing perceptorship right nw,,so can just practice in college only for 1.5 hrz 5 days a week for preps. Nd regarding rpd design nd stuff i am taking help vth other doc in college. Nd my HOD explained,wat is a dental philosophy monologue nd told me write abt it,which he den corrected.
Its basically comparison of wat we did in our country,how its done here,and concluding with how will u go abt it.
