Hey everyone. Id just like to say thanks for all the help I've gotten on this forum. I'm writing my Computer Part 1 exam in ONE WEEK. Any last minute suggestions?

I'm expecting difficult questions around:
- Classifications of bacteria and their names
- Amino Acid classifications, properties and linkages
- Memorizing steps in Metabolism - Urea cycle, Krebs, Glcogenolysis, Fat Synthesis etc
- Anatomy of the arms and legs

These types of questions are in my opinion the most difficult ones in the exam. I expect my worse section to be Biochem followed by Pathology. If anyone has any advice I would be greatful. Thanks.

Hi chinabuffet,
I know the board exam is very hard and stressfull, but try to focus on your notes, released papers and quickly review dental decks. On the exam if you don't know the answers, just guess. If you are not so confident on the biochemistry, microbiology or anatomy, review these again, on the last two days before your exam, I mean, memorize as much as you can. I don't know what else you can do....that's my sugestion! Don't forget, you can have this exam again, so don't loose your hopes! Good luck, be strong and believe in yourself!

Hi manish19, you have already know the pattern of part I. so if you have prepared decks and new asda papers very well . you will be fine. Dont worry just chill and you will be okay. all the best.
 
Thanks for all your advice. And 76 isn't that bad Manish. I think it curves to over 90. I was getting 60's when I first started doing the past papers. Now when I see a new one im getting 80's. I don't really expect to score much higher than that. If you haven't noticed, some of the questions are near impossible.
 
thanx for the gud piece of word
i really needed that ..
i was kind of bogged down from my score in previous papers
thanx alot for lifting up my confidence
thanx
 
Hi manish!
I took my part 1 this summer and i "partially" passed. I failed 1 subject which i have taken last month and i passed it with 76 despite the fact i have studied a lot. I was dissappointed last week when i've received the results but somehow happy that i passed. Now my overall score is 80. It's not so great but it doesn't count so much when you apply for advanced programs at schools of dentistry in US. The NBDE score is ranked 4th, after CV, letters of recommendation and your activity & results in previous dental school.
My advice for you is to RELAX and TO STAY FOCUSED DURING YOUR EXAM. Trust me and you will succeed.
BEST OF LUCK ON YOUR EXAM! 👍
