hey all, taking part 1 in 3 weeks. just wondering some things...
1. how many questions are on this thing?
2. what do i need to pass? i heard 75% and 55% (which i doubt is the case)
3. if i purely just use dental decks and old released questions, think i can pass? (i feel like im pretty solid on everything cept gross anatomy)

1. 400 (3.5 hours for the first 200, 3.5 hours for the second 200)
2. I hear different things for passing; latest I've heard is 242/400. I've never heard over 300 correct, so 75% seems high. If you can be scoring 75% on old exams, you're solid.
3. Seems like everyone at my schools is using decks and old exams almost exclusively. Pass rate is really high, so it must work...or our basic sciences are good.
