Study tips

Our advice to anyone trying to take the ORE exam is to study for 4-8 hrs a
day for at least 4-6 months without child/home/work distractions.

The books to study are:

. Pink Book (Oxford handbook of clinical dentistry)

. Blue book (Oxford handbook of applied dental sciences)

. Churchills pocketbook of clinical dentistry.

. Medical problems in dentistry (strongly recommend the latest edition)

common drug interactions and their significance in oral health care), Local

6. Ethics in dentistry

. Resus guidelines (along with chap 47 Emergencies - medical problems in


dentistry- scully)
. do question and time yourself, sit for 3 hours and do 150 questions, I will
recommend 1000 questions if you have never done before sit down and do
it.

. Also strongly recommend www.pastest.com, you can find a friend who can
pool in with you and you can share the exam time with them.

. I liked to study with study partners, if you can find someone who matches
your frequency you would really enjoy studying.
