So I just got my score and felt it would be a good idea to start this thread so that recent part 2 takers could post their results and experience n others can take advantage of it... any q's feel free to ask

I got 382 out of 500 and 79 on the case-based, for a comp score of 83.

I used Mosbys, Dental decks (the new ones), released exams and kaplan's q bank, and studied for about 3 months part time (work on the afternoons)

My best advice would be to do lots of practice questions, its the only way to prepare unless you have a lot of clinical experience.
Kaplan q bank helped me out a loooot in this part, so if u can, get it at least for the last month n spend it doing practice qs. (Its about 100 bucks n totally worth it)

Crisss, congratulations on your score. When was your exam and how many days it took for you to get the score report? And if you are located in US or some other country ? (So I can add shipping time accordingly)

Nope, but the new decks mention implants a lot on their perio cards i think. It wasnt an important topic in the exam anyways, i think i only got a couple of implant qs if any
