I stuied for 2 1/2 month, not less than 6 hrs a day even sat and sundays. I read dental decks 2 times trying to understand as much as possible but not memorizing 'cause you will be burned out. I studied also for ASDA test from 88' to 2008 (i did memorize it as much as I coudl). Finally the last 2 weeks before the test I studied by Dental Board Mastery (app store/ playstore). Mnemonics were really helpful mostly for biochem/groos anat/ micro/ pat. My score in the whole app was 71. I passed in the first try. I only used First Aid book just 1 time for read dental anatomy, not more!!! It was my experience, hope you suceed your test!
