New Item Formats
Three new item types are being introduced on the National Board Dental Examinations beginning in 2012. The new item types are multiple correct/multiple response, extended matching, and ordering.
Since these items are considered pretest items they will not be scored. However, they will be evaluated for their statistical performance and will not have an impact on candidates results or pass/fail status.
