Dental School & NBDE PREP

Hi, guys~

I have a question about curriculum at D-schools. (ONLY NBDE focused!!)

Do all D-schools provide prep courses for NBDE at appropriate time during academic years? (Ex) summer program for NBDE prep I or II)

Otherwise, can you list some schools where we should prepare for NBDE by ourselves?

I think NBDE scores are also important for D-schools' reputation & quality evaluation, so they are likely to concern about their student's NBDE scores. This time, I am not talking about average NBDE scores at each D-school, but whether they have good programs that will also facilitate their students to prepare for NBDE test without redundancy, complications in the preparation.

Meanwhile, I am also expecting to hear xxx schools have the best reputation for their NBDE prep courses (flexibility, smooth, on time schedule..), even though that may not be official! 🙂

The exam's pass/fail regardless of when you take it, so it doesn't matter. All schools prepare you for the test, but the best schools almost always over-teach. Harvard and Columbia're medical school, so you'll be over-learning by 2-3x. If you want to learn the bare minimum to get by and become tooth technicians, go to Pacific.

I can't understand UOP parts..

What do you mean? Tooth technician is another career. 😕
