hi,
I am planning to apply for cbt part -1 online and am a little confused abt the right choice to make of the following,
Indicate your current status
Dental Student in an accredited U.S. or Canadian Dental School
Dental Student in a non-accredited Dental School
Dentist (DDS or DMD from an accredited US or Canadian Dental School)
Dentist (graduate of a non-accredited Dental School)
Former Dental Student in an accredited Dental School
These are the four options given , of which I have to choose one. I completed BDS in India.the next page of the online application says
National Board Dental Examination Program, Part I
Eligibility Requirements for Dentist (graduate of a non-accredited Dental School)
A dentist who is an active, life or retired member of the American Dental Association is eligible for examination without documentation.
An affiliate member or a non-member must submit with the application verification that he or she is a dentist. Such verification must be in the form of a letter of recommendation from one of the following:
The secretary of a board of dentistry of a United States licensing jurisdiction in which the individual is licensed or eligible for licensure as a dentist.
The dean or registrar of an accredited dental school from which the dentist has graduated. Graduates of non-accredited schools must have evidence of graduation verified and submitted as described under the Documentation section of the Candidate Guide
The dean, director or registrar of an accredited advanced dental education program in which the dentist studied or is studying at the postgraduate level.
The dean of a dental school that is accredited by the Commission on Dental Accreditation to which the dentist is applying for admission with advanced standing. (This establishes eligibility for Part I only.)
I acknowledge the eligibility requirements indicated above
Is it necessary to get a letter from the dean?
PLease help me to fill this application 😕
