Canadian Acfd Eligibility Exam

[MACEDON]

Is anybody getting ready for the next eligibility exam in Canada or has anyone recently passed or almost passed IT. I hear that the next May exam is going to be pretty much easier that the passed ones and the ones to come. NEED SOME INSIDE INFO, LET'S SHARE, LET'S UNITE, LET'S KICK ASS !!!!

hi...thats sound good ..so start discussing question here n be united

 

[Mandibular]

Hello everyone..
Please take a few moments to email ACFD if you have not already done so because the more people who express their concerns the better...

 

[SCDC]

Everybody stop whining

And do some thing about it, if you are certain that there were cheating involved.
I agree with one of the posters it is a lose- lose situation for every one involved if the exam is annuled.

Time to hit the books.

hi
how was the exam this may tougher or easier than last may??????

 

[Unit together]

Hi every body......

Mostly it is not leakage,it is just some people who got together to remember Qs from the past previous exams,some can recall some Qs with all their choices. This happens with all exams in general,EE,NBDE,MCAT and even the driving test,G1.

Anyways,I'm looking for Frasaco typodent,manikin,head, stands.........is there anyone willing to sell something.I really appreciate any response.
Please,contact me on my email address.
Thank you very much.

how long is DDS course for us in UFT

 

[dralana1977]

Has anyone received any news from the ACFD about the complaints with the may exam?

 

[dosanjh]

Yes i recieved a letter from acfd Today stating that , ACFD will remove potentially affected questions from the recent exam prior to scoring.

Yes i recieved a letter from acfd Today stating that , ACFD will remove potentially affected questions from the recent exam prior to scoring.

what this means????like remove that 100 questions and then score or what???

 

[chd]

This could potentially have made it worse for all of us; it depends on the questions they remove.Personally, I hope they don't take out the questions that I answered correctly. I hope well for all you out there too.
We should try to help one another. Most exams worldwide whether it be dentistry, medicine etc. have a pool of remembered questions which are often repeated. Let's be productive and not create a civil war.At the end of the day we all suffer.
Bottom line: we are just immigrants to them. we are just a storm in a tea cup!! They have more important issues to deal with than the foreign graduates fighting amongst themselves & accusing one another of cheating.
Let's get on & discuss dental questions!!!

 

[Dr666]

Shame Shame to all those who were CRY babies and wrote and complained to the ACFD, i just wonder and think how can u guys be so stupid,dont u do your research before the exams. In fact the questions which were posted are all OLD PREVIOUS Exam questions, and our only way to score high marks in the exams is if these questions r repeated every year. But now due to the OVERENTHUSIASM of a few fools we lose that oppurtinity.God forgive them coz these fools do not know what they do.

 

[hzleuven]

so surpriesed to hear that. the exams later on are going be much much harder for us. less repetition, lower score. definitely not a good news.
you guyz should know that a lot of questions are not from dental decks. it's pretty hard for us to get prepared. working on repeated questions is the only practical way.
don't know how the exam in september will be.

 

[Devilchild]

gotta agree with Dr666. y'all who opened Pandora's box gotta learn a thing or two bout damage control. Weldone to the goon-heads out there a regal standing ovation is what you get from me. To the rest of you goodie goodie two shoes playing Holier-than-thou and butter wont melt in your mouth, im calling your bluff.

Unfortunately this thread is getting sad, not hilarious. The point is people are getting sick and tired about all the little practices developed in the gray legal area around this exam. Does anyone know why is this Mr. Naresh allowed to operate his little underground business undisturbed by the University or by the police? Is he paying any rights for the books he photocopies and then sells? Did any of you get any receipts?
Why is the EE exam written in pencil and not in pen? Specifically HB pencil. So that the papers can be altered after the exam? HB pencils are the easiest to erase without leaving marks on the paper.
Why are the candidates names on the papers left open? So that the connected students get the marks they "deserve" according to daddy's or uncle's donation to the University? Candidates names should be covered and sealed and only opened after the correction process has taken place.
Why is it taking 4-6 weeks to get the results? So that the connected people have time to operate the changes I was talking about? Correction is a computer job, just put the damn paper in the computer and give me the result...so much for the canadian fairness...give me a break

u must be kidding me!!!!!
invest this time and work on researching for ur next exam and studying, i think u just opened the doors of hell on ur next exam, there is nothing wrong of writing some previous questions or according to this the the ASDA (american student dental association) would be in big trouble!!, u r really fools and the funny guy calling his lawyer, please give me a break and stop this conspiracy theory thing, its illegal to breach copyright law for sure other than this nothing is wrong i believe!!!

[composite2004]

i really would like to thank those idiots who contacted the acfd , and i wana tell them they screwed themelves and screwed us , also hope they dont pass now to see the hell next sep. and for the ppl whoo had some questions from their previous trials to throw them away . and start all over again from zero ,

 

[f.khan]

Well now the qs is if they are going to remove 200 qs from the exam then what is left behind? Dont you think that in this situation it wud be a good idea to repeat the exam instead of scoring the same paper?

 

[Acfd2007]

if those who appealed had got some sense and realized what disaster they have lead to please take ur appeal back for heaven sake

 

[f.khan]

but now it doesnt matter even if they take it back. The thing is now they will change everything and knowing that they wud remove some qs is scary.

 

[drsunny88]

hey,,i jus checked da acfd website n they have explained about the may 2008 exam,,,so go n check it in detail...​

 

[drsunny88]

hey,,i thnk most of the people who r very angry over all this thng are those people who have all these posted questions and in my opinion they r kind of people who have a group of 20 or 30 people ,,whose only purpose is to get all these questions and then find answers and keep all these questions amongst there own communities and thats why u will notice that why some specific nationalities always get scores above 85%...
but thanxz god now hopefully this unfair cheating will be over and there will be a real and fair competition among all of us ,,especially those who dont have access to this unfair cheating and stuff...
i know some people are very angry bcz all they use to do was to jus memorize those questions that they have n score above 85 or even 90 % and then get admisiion,,but wat about all of us,,who work hard and in the end have to suffer bcz of dese unfair means...
anyways hopefully now these people will have to take another 5,6 years to collect all these questions so far all of us this is the time 2 work hard and kick dre ass!!!!

[digital braces]

i'm out of words to say anything! this is called wasting of brains,time and energy! i wish they had invested it all for preparation of ee.

no repetition means a lot more than wat v can imagine...all of us preparing for sept ee r probably looking at the test with only 100 q's we might know and the rest from an aliean world(thats wat i think)i'm so hopeless
how r we suppose to study now. just decks can't b enough.
thanku so much especialy to the guy who for heavans' paid his lawyer too

all those going in sept. wat u think v shuld expect in test. i'm sure no past q's atleast in next ee.

 

[Devilchild]

I knew I shoulda gone to law school, woulda made a kill outta some foreign trained dentist suing the Dental Community.
Gotta love the drama.

Come on big group hug.
No more fighting.

We all hate each other here, its ok to admit it.

 

[drsunny88]

i know its gonna be tough from now cz dre wont be any repeat questions but it will be good for most of us and only those people will get good scores who realy have good knowledge and have worked hard but ya it will be bad for those who only depend on repeated questions and or reconstructed qz ....sad but true

 

[Dr666]

Hey guys now we must decide what has to be done, i have already written to the ACFD that we should not be penalized if as per their investigation when No evidence of wrong doing has been comitted, we should just get the our real score and not any truncated score. the more people write to the ACFD the more reason they would see in our arguement.

 

[Acfd2007]

when is the result expected any idea

AM one of those angry people i Guess!!
took ee long ago ONE time ONLY, and currently a student in QP. From what it looks, u r an angry person and dont care about others, if u take some time to research the exam before entering u wouldn't have said so. Besides its funny u post on this same thread where the questions were posted and u didnt check them out. Hopefully it doesn't take u 5 to 6 years to get in.

Learn to respect others, besides even memorizing questions is a harder job by the way.its not ur job to say who deserves to be accepted, also when u finish the ee stage soon u will know its not always about scores!!

i would like to help all those who plan to give eligibilty exam. its a tough exam and u need patience and hard work to get good percentage. and even after getting good scores university interviews and practicals are really hard , too much competition on that level.i would recommend to every one who is giving ee that to also give national board part 1 to be on the safe side when the time comes for admission so u wont be disappointed.i would suggest all of you to study oral pathology intensively for ee as 50% of questions are oral patho.peadiatric dentistry is important also . good luck to all.

[doctorMM]

I can not believe that some people, such as the ones mentioned above and others like them, promote on this forum the promiscuity, the unfairness and the illegal network that has developed around this exam. I do not have proof yet, but I am convinced that some of the professors are as well involved in all this mess. There is no other way that the shop owned by Mr. Naresh can function right in the neighbourhood of the University of Toronto. And this shop is illegal no matter what false pretences uses for functioning. Selling photocopied tests from previous years is illegal.
I could even close my eyes to his illegal business, since everyone has access to it, there is no real advantage for anyone, but I can not close my eyes to seeing 100 questions posted on internet before the EE. You know why? Because 90% of those questions were included in the EE. Those questions were not randomly selected form the previous 3-4 years. Anyone can do the math. If I could select the right questions from the previous years so accurately, I would be playing lottery. Furthermore if anyone reads other forums, this guy has posted another 100 questions on other dental forums.
I do not want anyone to believe that I am targeting any students or dentists. This is not what I want. My target is the unfair and corrupted access system that was put in place by the ACFD, with one purpose: to demoralize and to humiliate the majority of the honest and hard working foreign dentist and to facilitate the access of the “CONNECTED” people. This system has to change for the better.
Let’s take for example this guy who started all this, KHAN2 or whatever his name is. He wants to be a dentist, but he is so ******ed that he can’t even answer some of the most basic questions, he had to post them on-line to get answers. And you know what? I do not think that anyone wants their dental problems be treated by such a specimen. Definitely this guy does not deserve to pass the EE.
I do not care how hard my actions are going to make this exam for me. It will be as hard for everyone else, but at least we would all be treated equally, which is not what has been happening so far. I want my exam paper to be sealed, put in a computer and the results provided right away or within 24 hours. I want one session of exams for each year, not two sessions. Why? Because the exams are not the same, which means that two different groups of people are not treated equally. Look at the results now. The average is 74%. In September was 70%. I am not saying it was easier, maybe for some of us it was, but it was different. Someone who got 85% in September (the highest score was 91%) was probably thinking that they had a shot at getting in. Guess what? They won’t. Because the highest score in May is 96%. How is this fair?
There are 72 books on the reference text list. That’s what everyone should be studying. And that’s it.
Like I said before, I will not let this one go away. Because is my right to be treated fair. I do not think that I am.
