hi naz,
the 4 year marksheet is the transcript/s, so if you have them translated as well, then it should be ok🙂 i sent them the Romanian certification of the documents and these days the English certified translation should reach them...but Jill didn't say anything yet, so i guess they are not there yet
take care,

nbde1 > 90 8 people
nbde1: 85-89 5 people

You can start with dental decks 07, then use kaplan review books/lectures, then go to exam papers (released and unreleased) - finally look up topics that you dont understan in decks in books/lecture notes. Try to aim for a score of 90+, for all applications. If anyone else has to add something please feel free to let tom know.

good luck

Hello fellow classmates

I visited the dental school yesterday (during the interview i did not get a too close of a look), pretty nice facility, I saw the pre-clinic area for us IDDP studets and that was nice. Met with some students and they said it is a good learning environment. Also they told me we do most course work from D2, D3 and D4 year in IDDP - 1 and then do IDDP-2 entire year as clinics. Excellent oppourtunity to work on patients. Jill said she would be sending out more info on our whole class as it becomes available. Cant wait to see you all in May.

Good Luck

dentalbug
 
thats really good, u visited the school and got a closer look,. i have a question though, how soon do we get into the clinics, i mean, how long is the preclinical,once we start in may 2008, when do we start seeing patients..? if i remember correct, its around september,but not sure...

hi every 1
congrats for all the new lucky one👍s
does anyone have any idea about the educational system for our program..
I mean what about those who already passed the NBD 2? would they be required to attend the same lectures as those who passed NBD 1 only?
as I know about some other dental schools...if u already passed part 2,u r not required to attend any related lecturs. is it the same in UIC?
thanks in advance for any help, and congrates again for u all🙂

We have to take the same classes i believe, 3rd year is mostly courses from D2, D3 and D4 and 4th is clinicals - IF i am not mistaken. I don't think it matters if you have part I or II.

Good luck

Dentalbug
 
syriana,
as dentalbug said, i don't think that having taken the nbde2 makes a difference in your curriculum;
take care,
 
hello all,
i received a phone call from Blanca saying that all my papers are ok, deposit, transcripts/diploma..i'm happy that everything is ok🙂
 
I got a call as well, All my papers are ok but they still need my mark sheets. Which were sent about few days ago from my home country, so I hope they will get there soon.

good luck to all

Dentalbug
 
i too got a call, she was checking when she ll receive the marks card and degree certificate from india?....
dental bug,what other papers are you referring to??
 
sorry for the confusion, The only other document was the degree certificate. So only mark sheets are missing. I did not send any other documents

It looks like if we answer to Q23 and Q24 as suggested above, we will be forced to answer "Yes" to Q49

49. Working on Master's or Doctorate in 2007-2008?

Is this correct? Is DDS considered a doctorate degree, examples given were "Phd, MD, ..etc"

I appreciate your responses.

Priya
Yes ​
 
DDS is a master/docetrate degree

good luck

dentalbug
 
i doubt it... bcos doctorate means phd/ masters and such...
now i m confused....whom should we ask to make sure...any suggestions??

DDS stands for Doctorate of Dental Surgery
DMD stands for Dentariae Medicinae Doctorae (Latin for Dental Medicine Doctorate)
MD stands for Medical Doctorate

These are all examples of professional doctorates. A PhD stands for Philosophy Doctorate, which is an academic doctorate. Furthermore, Doctorates, Masters and certain other degrees are all examples of graduate degrees.

Hope this clears up some of the confusion.
