WREB Vs. NREB?

which one is easier?

which one is accapted by more states?

thank you very much.
It's NERB, not NREB.

Don't really know anything about WREB but from what I've heard and seen I think the NERB is accepted in 40+ states. The actual exam itself isn't hard - even on a bad day in clinic you should still be doing good enough quality work to pass their criteria - but it's just a very stressful experience between getting ready for it mentally and finding the appropriate patients / backup patients. Plus on the patient part you know instantly if you fail on the spot so you're nervous about that... at least I was.

Just do the dentistry you were taught for 3.5 years and you should be fine.
 
NERB is by far and away the worst of the worst...the stress is unbelievable. It gets even worse if you fail and have to remediate...trust me. If I could do it all over again I would take any other test but the NERB. Rumor has it they are getting rid of it in like 4 years and modifying what they test...but again, that could be a HUGE rumor.

You clearly haven't taken the Florida exam. It is the NERB on steroids. Everything the NERB is but worse ie no assistants etc.
