I am pretty sure that its between 288-300 of correct Q out of 500 for both day-1&2, I had call them for the specific answer as far as passing score for paet-2 but they said we cant give it to you as a specific #. cos it will be analyse based on the frequency of correct answer between this range , i think it is on ada site with range of score by the student in different years in the past.
Goodluck.

i also called ada people, but no specific answer...... but i guess the Score Card shows the national mean for the individual subjects and so somebody who has recently given exams can give information about this.... anybody out there pls help.

Go to ada site and click on complete technical report on page 75 you will find minimum raw score needed to pass it varies probably every month or year last one given on that page is 2006 and thats 283, and they collaborate it with the variability and formula god knows what and then you get your results. I had found out with different student who got just 75% and seems that they score 290+ q correct so this is the situation, best is try scoring above 300 Q right out of 500 you will pass for sure. I hope this help. thanks.👍

I am familiar with that technical report .......... wht i am looking for is the individual break up of the subjects..... like that given of anatomy, physio, etc in that report; i am looking for national mean of individual subjects -national mean of endo, operative, ortho, pedo, perio, prostho, oral surgey, etc and national mean of the second day...

Pharma 37 25.7
Prostho 61 42.1
oral surgery 53 36.1
ortho/pedo 71 51.3

Mind here Q for day 2 r included in the above mean so dont count day-2 Q along with day-1 its just for the reference so that you may know the national mean for day -2. I hope its helps as i am writing from my results , exam taken in feb 2008, its may varies on different time as they change stuff very fast at ada. I hope this helps. Goodluck.👍
