Key things you need to know before the NDHCB

9/18/2014

1 Comment

 
The dental hygiene board exam (NDHCB) is fast approaching!  Some of you will be writing it this coming Monday and others on Tuesday.  I cannot stress enough a few important points you need to remember before your exam.  Obviously STUDY and study some more but a few others things to consider:

  • Download and review the candidate guide here this includes a lot of information about the exam: format, security measures, scoring, etc. 
  • To learn about how the exam is developed and processed you can review this here.
  • The exam is based on a blueprint, and you can view this here
  • To access sample questions with rationales, you can go here
  • Preparation mock exams - we have our newest edition you can purchase (2014) or our 2013 edition here.  All mock exams include diagrams, radiographs, and rationales.
  • The FDI tooth numbering system is used for the exam (not the universal system).


Some useful tips include:

  • Read each question carefully and separately prior to answering, and take your time
  • Limit your time for each question so you are able to finish the exam
  • If you do not know something, skip it for now and bookmark it to review later
  • Avoid reading TOO MUCH into the question
  • Every question can have four possible answers, choose the most correct
  • Some questions may refer to a radiograph or photo
  • You will NOT lose marks for an incorrect answer, so make sure to answer each question


You can view more tips at the main NDHCB web site here

Nervous?  Yes, that is normal!  Keep studying but remember to take breaks.  Your brain can only retain so much information at a time.  Study for 3 hours at the most at a time, take a break and then continue on.  Any questions, concerns or last minute stresses you can share with us by sending an email to andrea@dentalelle.com :).  We are here to help!
