hi gd55, sorry for the delay...I feel like people are scoring 5-6 points lower on the new format then the old one. Even the US students are scoring lower. What I'm worried about is how the dentals schools are going to interpret the new scores since it's the first year they'll have to do so. Perhaps they'll refer to their own US students and notice the trend (hopefully). Does anybody have any insight on this?
 
hi
can anyone tell me how i can add research dental experience on my cv..ajay can u also plz help me out thanks:)..
 
gd55-did you have 83 on new or old exam? I feel that if we post the grade we should say if it's the new or old format since from what I understand people score lower on the new format. Is that true?
Ajay Das-congrats on getting it. It's great that you came back to help.
hi....i have 85 score in new pattern. toefl 96. gpa is 2.8...

I think 85 is a good score in new pattern...

but if you are from India , the Diversity factor may play against you , besides your GPA is below 3.0...

but still we never know, its all if and but situation...

its just my opinion...

good luck

I gave Part1 3 times. Two times in old pattern and once in new pattern. I did not find any difference other than in the new pattern all the sections are mixed. First time in the old pattern i got 81, second time 85, third attempt in the new pattern i got 90.

Hi Frnds... i have a part1 score of 87 n toelf 101, ECE 3.36..have applied last week for NYU..what r my chances?? n how long it takes to get application comfirmation reply from NYU???? thanks in advance...
 
Hi Everyone,

I have applied in NYU and my stats are:
1. NBDE PART1 87( new pattern)
2.TOEFL 90
3.G.P.A 3.88
so I want to ask you all what are my chances of getting in NYU.

Thanks and hope to hear from you soon
 
Nobody can tell what ur chances are except the school. If u meet their requirements then its fine. Gpa of 3.00 and above is required for nyu. But some plp did got an interview call with less than 3.00. It also depends on ur CV.
 
Please remember that 99% of the people on this site are still trying to get into a Dental School themselves. The remaining 1% do not have any idea about your chances of getting in as they have no affiliation with the admission department.
Hang in there. It's a matter of 'when' and not 'if'.
 
yeah..i do agree with ajay!!!!do apply..u never know what r ur chances!give it a shot!!!
good luck!:thumbup::thumbup:

hi everyone...
did any one got an interview call yet from nyu..or an news???
 
hi everyone,
I don't know much about what NYU is looking for but I feel that people really aren't scoring that much lower on the new format. Does anyone else feel this way? Do you think that NYU is still going to require a minimum of 85??? By the scores posted so far I don't feel like that would be unreasonable, which is not good for me, but I'm just trying to see where I stand.
 
hey mini doc.... i know ppl have managed to get gud scores this yr.......all we can do is wait for nyu to begin interviews.........

wats ur score btw.......
 
I got an 84, which on the old scale is an 89 or 90. Even though people are scoring higher I feel that it's always around the 87 mark, or maybe that's just what people are posting. Also, I've seen more lower scores than last year. I guess we can just hope and wait.

i would appreciate if you can tell me if any source is available for 2007 or new format score conversion to 2006 or old format...


advance thanks
 
Well, by the conversion chart I just averaged the grades. Then if you look at another post someone stated that a class of american dental students, I forget the universty, scored an average of 5 points lower from the year prior. Now, since they haven't changed their admission criteria for the college students and I'm pretty sure they haven't changed their ENTIRE curriculum, I am assuming that the 5 point difference is reasonable.
 
http://dentistry.uic.edu/students/ex...Conversion.pdf

Just see ur percentile score(standard score) given in the table corresponding to the correct answers(raw score) number and take average.


do you realize you're citing a document almost 10 year old? that was true for the old format, not for the new one...pls don't mislead people by letting them believe that they will "adjust" in any way the old and the new format..in the end there are 'only' numbers...guess what they will choose........

??????????

i dont get it

my question is how can any one say that 84 score in new format (after 2007) is equivalent to 89 or 90 score in old format (prior to 2007)?

you're right, no one can say that:thumbup:

How can you take average because raw scores are different for each subject for the same percentile. If you take the average of four raw scores then you can not apply this conversion chat to new scores. how would you explain this
