Hi 🙂

I am a dentist from India. I aim to give my NBDE Part-1 in November 2013. Started with my studies fro NBDE Part-1 since 15 days. I have started this thread for everyone planning to apply for DDS in 2015. I would like to discuss here step by step procedure for this process starting from NBDE Part-1. Anyone with the same aim can please join this thread so that we can have good discussions and share our knowledge.

I have started with Microbiology-Pathology from First Aid and Kaplan Lecture Notes. Since there is so much to study we can help by sharing some good questions and there answers. (Kindly pick the questions from authentic source only like Dental Decks 2012-13)
