How Do I Prepare for the NDEB?

At Prep Doctors, the question we get asked the most is, “How can I pass the NDEB exams?” With this in mind, Prep Doctors is committed to helping international dental professionals stay current and prepare for the NDEB exams and changes through our advanced, state-of-the-art courses covering each of the NDEB examinations to help you pass on your first try.

 

Assessment of Fundamental Knowledge (AFK)

The AFK exam consists of 200 multiple-choice questions testing candidates’ core and basic knowledge of dentistry, biomedical and applied clinical sciences. At Prep Doctors, we know you can’t cut corners when it comes to this exam. In fact, the Prep Doctors AFK preparation course is designed to give you the perfect formula for passing the AFK exam with a high score on your first try. 

This year, Prep Doctors is offering three options for our AFK course—our tried and true Full Course, our new online Crash Course (replacing our review package), and our Mock Exams. 

Learn more about our AFK courses here. 

Find out essential details and AFK study materials from the NDEB’s AFK Protocol here.

 

Assessment of Clinical Judgement (ACJ)

Known as the most challenging exam in the equivalency process, the ACJ exam is a case-based assessment combining both clinical knowledge and clinical decision-making abilities with oral radiology. The exam is divided into two booklets, with the first testing a candidate’s ability to formulate a diagnosis and make clinical decisions through dental charts, case histories, and photographs. In contrast, the second booklet assesses a candidate’s knowledge in oral radiology and their ability to make a radiographic interpretation and diagnosis through radiographic images. The ACJ also must be taken after the AFK exam. 

Prep Doctors follows a practice-heavy, cover-all-bases approach with more than 100 in-class hours and a problem-based learning method specially tailored to equip you with strategies you can use on exam day. With four full computer-based ACJ mock exams and multiple practice sessions for individual cases and radiographs, our Prep Doctors ACJ course ensures you have the right tools to take the exam with certainty. 

Learn more about our ACJ courses here. 

Find out essential details and ACJ study materials from the NDEB’s ACJ Protocol here. 

 

National Dental Examination of Clinical Competence™ (NDECC™)

The NDECC™ exam, previously known as the ACS exam, tests the practical skills of dentists by requiring them to complete a total of 17 specific projects in a two-day simulated dental clinic. In 2022, the NDEB will introduce two components: Clinical Skills and Situational Judgement requiring dentists to perform seven clinical requirements on simulated manikin-patients in a clinical setting in the first component and ten situational judgment requirements in the second.

At Prep Doctors, we offer an NDECC™ Clinical Skills course to better prepare trainees for the modified examination, including supervised training sessions, instructor time, lab access, and mock exams to prepare you for whatever is coming your way.

Learn more about our NDECC™ course here. 

Find out essential details from the NDEB’s outline here.

Despite the challenges and intense regimen each NDEB equivalency process may take, Prep Doctors remains the best place to begin your journey. Our team is always available to answer any questions about the NDEB process and dental equivalency. So, please reach out to us through our Facebook page or email us at info@prepdoctors.ca. We are more than happy to help!
