Failed the NDEB — what to do differently the second time

For the people asking about study timelines: I studied 76 minutes per day for 11 weeks working full time. It's absolutely doable without burning out. The key is consistency — missing days hurts more than extending your timeline.

Same experience here. The NDEB practice test was what finally made it click for me — specifically the way it explains the reasoning rather than just giving answers. Took me 2 weeks of consistent practice but scores went from 69% to 88% by exam day.

Bookmarking this. I'm still in the early stages of NDEB prep and threads like this are way more useful than generic study guides. The specifics about national board dental hygiene examination are particularly helpful — that's the section I've been avoiding.

Really helpful breakdown, thanks for sharing. I'm at week 5 of my NDEB prep and the national board dental hygiene examination section is exactly where I'm struggling too. Going to try the approach you described and see if it moves my scores.
