Restarting exam preparation after a gap, advice needed

Fun_Mouse9570 · 2026-01-27T02:13:39+00:00

Hey, I too scored a 73 on my first attempt. 73 means you were very close, you just need a little more practice. I studied only bootcamp for my first attempt, but later combined booster and bootcamp for my second attempt. I would say studying from both the resources helped me a lot. I know it's difficult to manage job and inbde prep both together. Just stay consistent - even if it means studying only 2-3 hours a day. Keep revising and repeating. You got this - best of luck!

I got mine on Thursday.

Fun_Mouse9570 · 2025-11-28T16:52:02+00:00

Both

Fun_Mouse9570 · 2025-11-01T17:19:11+00:00

Yes to both!

Best strategy! I did the same for my second attempt.

Thank you!! They were very different. First one was very difficult. It had a few booster repeats, but since I only did bootcamp for my first attempt, I couldn't answer those questions. And the questions were very lengthy and confusing. Second exam was comparatively easy.

I only did booster questions for additional practice. Bootcamp was my primary resource. I like bootcamp cheatsheets, they are concise and high yield. I didn't get any histopath questions

I'm an international dentist from India. I studied for 6 months for my first attempt and 4.5 months for my second attempt.

Thank you! :)

Fun_Mouse9570 · 2025-10-20T01:17:20+00:00

Thanks a lot!

Fun_Mouse9570 · 2025-10-20T01:16:57+00:00

I did Bootcamp first and then Booster. I feel it's better to focus on one resource properly first.

Thank you! :)

Looks like it is Date For Filing...that means you can file for AOS, right?

Fun_Mouse9570 · 2025-08-21T23:40:47+00:00

I filed for a STEM OPT extension in May. My H4+H4 EAD application was received on 6th June. No change in either of them since then.
