Need Help With CBT registration

[mommydentist]

---

Members don't see this ad.

I have rgistered for CBT online about a week ago. I have received confirmation in the e-mail but I am still waiting for the confirmation via postal mail, to call and schedule a date with prometric.
😕
My question is am I on the right track or am I missing something here....does it take more than a week for them to send me a confirmation via post??🙄

Please help me with this confusion.
Thank you

No, you are not going to get any confirmation by snail mail. Whatever confirmation you got by email take a copy of that, 2 forms of id and you are ready. That's all you need. Good luck with your preparation and your exam.

Well, u will get a letter from ADA with yr id no. and how to schedule date with prometric. So just wait for few more days. Give the post some time to reach you.
Good luck

I didnt get anything for CBT. You do everything online. I think you are talking about PBT. But maybe I am wrong.

I took CBT last year and I got a hard copy letter from the ADA stating my id no. and details on how to schedule an appt with prometric, what to carry with me etc.

Not to be a jerk or anything, but I registered a couple months back (June 2006 to be precise) and I scheduled it online, a week after I got the confirmation email. I dont remember getting anything from them. Again maybe I am wrong. We just have to use our SSN as the id number to schedule the date with prometric. That's what I remeber doing and if I am wrong I have very poor memory😀 !!

Hi,yes!!..g3k u are right. i did the same. i didnt get any letter from ada. i simply took the print out of the confirmation i got,with 2 ids..thts it.

Go to the thread "CBT Process"..it has detailed explanation about the entire process.

Hi:

I took Part 1 CBT on sept. 18-06....(one week ago). I registered and paid online with credit card. I got a letter from ADA about 2 weeks after I registered, it shows an 1800 phone number to call the prometric center and schedule your test....

hi,
ada will give u a 1-800 number. u call the prometric center...or u can even register online. [I registered online]. The link might be given in the email u got. if u dont have let me know i'll send it. Go to tht link.Find a test center near ur place. See if a test date u prefer is available. then register using ur confirmation no. u can use ur credit card to pay.
thts it. the email confirmation u get from prometric center..print it. take tht to the center alongwith ur passport,drivers license,state id..any 2 IDs...and ur done.
hope u got it now.
all the best.

again, i didnt get letter from ada after i registered for the test at prometric center. i took my test in july 2006.and u can even re-sechedule ur test date online.

hellooooo doctors,,

i am confused about something ,, what do you mean by CBT ?

is it computer based toefl or you are applying for computarized exam of NBDE ?
As far as I know there is no more computer based toefl . it is now iBT

Am I right ?

can we register for the computarized NBDE any time in the year or there is definit dates for the exam ?

I would be greatful if you guys can answer my quistions .
Thanks 🙂

hi!mommy dentist
u don't need to pay any more . just call ada to ask them if ur application has been processed usually they send e mail only after the application is processed. now u can call prometric center at 1800 688 5804 to schedule ur appointment .that's the way it worked for me .
