Exam questions to help you practice

You can’t cut corners when it comes to the fundamental knowledge exam. The sheer amount of information you have to learn requires a structured approach and constant practice. Through our years teaching the AFK course, we have devised the perfect formula for how to pass the NDEB AFK exam with a high score.

This AFK preparation course is designed so that the topics are broken down into mini-programs. The Prep Doctors approach gives you the time to focus on the details needed for both the exam and real-world dentistry.

We constantly update our course material to keep you on top of exam trends. In addition to that, you will take weekly quizzes and get access to self-examination tablets – to practice and perfect what’s being taught during lectures.

Add to that the most challenging mock exams in Canada and you have the ultimate recipe to clear the AFK exam with a high score or to get accepted into a Canadian university’s dentistry program.

Board Exams

All dentists who want to practice in Canada must follow Canadian standards and criteria, which are often different from other countries around the world. To prove they can uphold these standards, all foreign-trained dentists must have their work and knowledge assessed in a four-part dental equivalency process. This process is overseen by the National Dental Examining Board of Canada (NDEB).

 

The NDEB Assessment of Fundamental Knowledge (AFK) Exam is the first official step in your journey to becoming a dentist in Canada. The AFK exam is an extensive multiple-choice exam that tests your knowledge of both biomedical and applied clinical science. From anatomy to pharmacology, candidates are required to refresh their dental knowledge within the context of Canadian norms and standards.

What does the course include?

 

  • 40 AFK Lectures
  • 250+ total in-class hours
  • 3 Full Mock Exams
  • 42+ Hours of Mock Exam Discussion
  • 2 Pre-exam Review sessions
  • 20 Quiz & Discussion sessions
  • 600+ Quiz questions covered
