Hi,

I'm preparing for part1 with decks. Would you kindly tell me that where you get that Kaplan book and what it is about?

Thank you

😕
 
You have to be enrolled in the Kaplan course www.kaplan.com to get that book. It is a thousand ++ dollar course. However, you could find one on this forum from someone who has taken Part 1 already. Also, try www.ebay.com

PS: I DO NOT have this book

my friend ...

looks like ur lost ... let me know which part of the country you are in..and ill give you the closest KAPLAN locations and/or phone numbers ... its hard to find the Kaplan locations in their website ..

KAPLAN is a private institute which helps you prepare for your dental boards .. when you enroll for their NDB 1 course they will give you study material (1 book for Part 1 and 3 video tapes) and old NDB test papers .. dont expect any classes or live lectures ..

in 2002 the tuition for part 1 was $1000 ( 6 months to use the kaplan study facilities, 1 book and 3 tapes) ..

hope that helps ..
 
thank you friends. Your information is great.
I live in San Diego, CA.

hi xuhaifeng

As txdentist said you look very lost in this. Kaplan is a rather expensive and lenghty preparation course. Unless you have several months to prepare don't even bother on paying for the course. Actually if you're planning for next July, don't even bother on the book, since you're probably won't have enough time.

If you check some previous threads on this forum, you'll find all kind of advice.

I personally recomend dental decks and released tests, and go to the librabry often to use books as reference when you need some detailed information. This is because most question in the actual exam are recycled, so usually decks and released tests will do. Plus, the Kaplan book has waayyyy too many details in it, which may cause you to spend too much time on each subject.

In case you do have enough time to prepare, go ahead and buy the an USED Kaplan book, and use it together with the other material you can get. I said used, because you can only get it new directly from Kaplan when you join the course, which "ain't worth it".

Of course, all this depends on the level of preparation you got from the school you graduated from, and the time you have to study. You know different countries, different curriculum.

Well, good luck, sincerely 🙂

Kaplan does not have any on campus course in san diego. They give u book and they tell u to do ur own study. Of course u can use their library. So ur better off buying the book.
