Can you tell me how to access the review materials regarding ORE exam?
Well first, you need to select the type of account that you would like. At the moment you have a few options. Either the standard ORE Exam course which has some course material but lots of question or the intensive course which has lots of exam material, lots of questions and tutor support.
I would like to know after passing ORE exam and getting registered with GDC, do I have to do vocational training here?
There is no requirement to practice AFTER the exam but there is a requirement to do so BEFORE the exam. "On 6 June 2007 the Council approved a policy on prior clinical experience for all new applicants for the ORE, after a 12-week consultation period."
How familiar are you guys with the course materials that is required for the UK-based exam?
Well, I guess the proof is in the "taste of the pudding", we have passed over 1,500 ORE students so our material should be really good! Furthermore, each course has different amounts of resources but in general, we offer 1,000's of ORE syllabus questions written by expert dental tutors, lots of online and downloadable resources and tutor support (by an expert UK based dental tutor).
How credible are your claims of giving money back if we do not pass the exam? How realistic is that?
Very credible. We actually do not have an option not to give your money back (within 10 days of purchase) as we our bound by PayPal's terms and conditions of sale. i.e. If you are not satisfied you can claim your money through Paypal and we are obliged to refund you. As for the gold course 100% money back guarantee if you fail promise, we have never had to fulfill this as all students have passed the exam. Never the less if you do fail we will refund you the entire amount that you have paid as long as you prove to us you actually failed (scan of the failure notice).
Are there weekly quizzes in the course to find out how much I progress and to find in what section I am weak to do more study?
Each course contains hundreds of questions which are marked automatically. The system stores your answers and then shows you the ones you got wrong. If you opt for the gold or deluxe course you can ask the tutors to review your work and show your weaknesses if you are having difficulty doing this yourself.
Do you send materials to study or you only send questions?
The Silver Course just has questions. The gold course has extra study materials. The deluxe course has much more, in-depth study materials which cover both the LDS and ORE Exam.
Is there a test at the end of the course?
Yes, there are multiple ORE "final exams". This is very similar to the actual ORE Exam and can tell you whether you are ready or not.
How long will it take me to finish the course?
In general, students usually take a couple of months to go through all of the ORE preparation material thoroughly.
