is this time enough to give a good attempt in july?how many hours do we need to put in?is just the kaplan and the decks with the reprints enough?any other specifications?

Hi,
The best bets for passing NDB part 1 are , Dental Decks and Question papers .. and maybe a few of your Old Class notes ..As far as time for studying is concerned..you only need 2 months of really good preparation to get good scores , it is important that you study effectively..and fast ..You don't need to use books /Kaplan Notes...as they are too detailed and that much of detail is not asked in the Dental Boards ..
As regards to your GPA , ofcourse it is very important..students above 3.5 GPA are sure to get into a school if they fair well in NDB /Toefl/Interviews.Your GPA reflects about your past records!
Just follow a study timetable and you should do fine ...
STUDY SMART, APPLY SOON.
1) Dental Decks( 2001 Edition)
2) Asda Reprints.( 1987-1997)
3)Old class notes if necessary....
4) Study Schedule......
on the order of importance for the subject's...
i believe it to be..
Pathology
/
microbiology
/
Biochemistry
/
Physiology
/
Dental Anatomy
/
Anatomy.
Hope that helps you out..
