Hello friends,
I am kind of new at SDN. I have only applied to few schools. At the moment interviewed at UMN, got my rejection today. I am planning to take my part 2 in Feb 2012, please advise what I need to buy to clear the exams.
 
I am referring Deck as of now.. Mosby yet to buy. what about you? How many hours are you studying in a a day? For me it's going slow.. btw, I am aiming for Feb too..was just wondering?
 
I just started too. I work 8 to 5, so it is kind of difficult to study much. I am planning on 4 hours a day and around8 -10hours a weekend. I need to still buy the decks. I do have some ASDA old papers and Kaplan notes. I want to give it in February as after that I will apply for Colorado. Have you applied anywhere else?

I've recently cleared my part 2!

Studied for a month and a half, about 2hrs/day on weekdays and 6-8hrs/day on weekends.

I've gone through Dental Decks twice, I've reviewed previous exams once (only the 4 most recent releases), and studied Pharma using the Tufts booklet.

Found the exam fairly easy, but I've got to say that the first year of dental school (IDP) helped quite a bit... A lot of confusing questions on patient management/behavior, and a fair amount of pathology/pharmacology.

Good luck everyone!
 
hi everyone!
I recently took my part 2 in December and passed it...
I studied for 4 weeks 10-12 hours/day...did the dental decks and K,L,M papers twice and TUFTs pharmacology notes...
I found that most of the questions were from the decks...
The case scenarios were a little confusing, but I dont see how I could have been better prepared for them!
 
Hey i was doing asda papers. They seem to be very difficult. 60 % is all i can get. Is the exam this difficult aswell or is it just the asda papers
 
Thanx, i have my exam in 10 days and the asda exams made me nervous. I was able to get 65 % though
 
does anyone want to sell the K, L, M papers?
or else is there any website where i can buy it from?

My classmates and I all used MOSBYs and the TUFTs pharmacology preparatory material.
some supplemented w the decks.

I think I only heard of one person failing the exam our of the 100 students. And that was a first in years at UCLA.
