Got my exam in 2 days... continue to score right around 60-63% on old boards...

all I want to do is pass. I heard that 55% roughly would pass you in the past... but with as competitive as dental school is these days I dont know if that is true...

anyone got some input? Advice?

I dont care at all about my score as long as I pass

Good luck on your exam, I take mine next week.

To answer your question it really depends on the version of the exam you get. But with two friends who just got there results back this is what I think. One friend scored a 79 with a 255 another friend scored a 77 with a 251 out 400. Different exams. Based on these results I think that a score around a 60% or a 240 out of 400 should put you on safe ground. However that being said I have one friend last year that failed with a 238 and another that passed with 218 obviously a different exam. Hope this helps.

Just keep studying I am sure that you will do fine.
