So Happy! just got IV from UOP!! :) any ideas what is the exam about? just clinical or writing as well? how to prepare and etc...?

Good luck to all!
 
Today I got another rejection letter from UOP. I was about to call dr. Patricia King but it says call not before JAN 2012. Ridiculous man! I feel rejection email should include the legitimate explanation for rejection. This is really heart- breaking. By the way, good luck for those who got the happy email this afternoon.

Hey , Is anybody know that we have to prep the teeth on Manikin or / like USC and UCLA, we can hold the typodont in our hand or bench. Thankssssssssssss
 
is that asked in UOP becnh tst?

hmmm ive never head UOP askin for that, i think its a class II prep and a PFM crown but they dont really say. Anyways, they give us time to read the preps they want and practice b4 the exam so i think anything they ask will be easier to do since we will know exactly what they want... dunno

Yeah, that makes fair amount of sense.. Lets see how it goes..
 
Can anyone explain what is MOD 3/4th VC? please help.

You have to prepare 3/4 th veneer crown and MOD on the same tooth. UOP's MOD concept is different from other schools. Even I am havin a hard time to do the prep.
 
Does anyone know wat particular features UOP are looking for in the preps? Please share your ideas....
 
Hey friends I just want to make sure that they are going to provide everything for bench test, even high speed hand piece, excepte gown and loupes, right? please confirm. Thank you.
 
Can anyone be generous enough to upload the UOP Bench test manual here? Would really appreciate it! God Bless.
