Hi. I cleared NBDE 1 in March and took NBDE 2 with in 2 months. I did not get enough time to prepare as I work 45 hrs a week so ended up getting 74 in NBDE 2. I am retaking it in July. I see that Universities give preference to NBDE 2 candidates. I think I have good resume except for NBDE 2. I got graduated from Johns Hopkins in 2012 and since then I have been working on H1B visa and have research, volunteer and shadowing dentist experience. Though I have not included letter from Dentist as I included letter from my Hopkins professor. I checked with UCLA to see if they consider my part 2 later after deadline since my results would be out only in first week of August. They said nothing post July 8 would be considered. My stats
6 months experience in India as lecturer
MPH from Johns Hopkins
GPA: 3.6
Toefl: 102
Worked as Public Health Analyst for 2 yrs and been working as Health Care Business Analyst for 2 yrs. Will I still have shot with out NBDE 2? Thanks for reading and sorry for the long message. NBDE 2 score really tore me apart. I infact got 375/500. My day 2 was pathetic and I didnt get to take even a day off from work to prepare for my exam. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks again!
