INBDE Premium Boards — The Study Boards Course Blueprint
A 6-month personalised INBDE prep program built around 12 sequenced sections — from clinical-sciences basics through nightly live tests. Daily tasks, mentor coordination, and 35K+ focused items. Here is what is inside the program.
INBDE PremiumThe 12 sections of the INBDE Premium Boards course
Each section is delivered inside the TSB platform under daily mentor coordination.
The INBDE Premium Boards course is The Study Boards long-running prep program for the Integrated National Board Dental Examination. It runs for 6 months of access and is priced at $499 USD. The plan is built to crack the exam in 3–4 months with consistent effort. Throughout the program, mentors give you personal attention so weaknesses are identified early and fixed quickly.
Below is the operational breakdown of each section — what is delivered, why it is sequenced where it is, and what to expect.
Basics for Clinical Sciences
Day one — and why we start here.
Each morning the program opens with a Task for the Day in your TSB account. Complete it, mark it done — that small discipline keeps your boards prep coordinated and your momentum compounding.
Critically review every item: why is this clinically important, and how would it show up on the exam? The Basics module is intentionally Clinical Sciences first so you ace the application of knowledge from day one, not weeks in.
Master Files and Modules — Clinical Sciences
Where your efficiency skyrockets.
The Master Files and Modules give you concrete synopses of the topics that actually matter. We have compiled 16,000+ focused questions and concepts so your study time stays where it counts.
Our emphasis is Clinical Sciences. We have consistently observed fewer Basic Science questions on recent exams — we guide your effort where the return is highest.
Master Test Series — Individual Subjects
Your first major checkpoint.
Subject-based mock tests alongside 350+ peers per batch. Rankings are calculated automatically.
Consistently in the top 50 means you are on track. Landing in the last 50 is a timely signal for mentors to step in and adjust your study strategy before it is too late.
Master Test Series — Cumulative
Retention compounding, not leaking.
Cumulative tests after every 2–3 subjects so you do not forget what you already learned. The cadence builds the integrated thinking the exam expects.
Study flow: Basics → Master Files → Master Test → next subject → Cumulative Test every 2–3 subjects.
Master Diagnosis Series
Application wins exams.
Knowledge matters. Application wins exams. The Diagnosis Series puts you through clinical case vignettes that mirror INBDE-style scenarios. The goal is to train diagnostic reasoning as you move through each subject.
Master Foundation — Fundamental Knowledge Areas (FKA)
JCNDE blueprint, fully covered.
The JCNDE blueprint defines the Fundamental Knowledge Areas (and sub-areas). Premium Boards covers them thoroughly with worked examples. This section ensures your preparation leaves no stone unturned and stays aligned with the actual exam design.
Master Revision Series (20 Days)
Smart revision beats re-reading.
A few weeks before the exam, re-reading everything is neither realistic nor efficient. The 20-Day Revision Series instead brushes up FAQs quickly, zeroes in on your weaknesses, and sharpens recall — priming you for your full-syllabus tests.
Master Test Series — Full Syllabus
10–12 tests, custom-built around your weaknesses.
Once your Revision Series ends, we design 10–12 full-syllabus tests specifically to attack your weak areas. The structure factors in your accuracy in earlier subject tests and the days left to exam day. This is where your retention is tested in the truest sense.
Grand Test Series
8-hour mock exams. Full simulation.
Multiple mock examinations simulate the real exam — including the length: 8 hours with a 15-minute break. These are your final dress rehearsals to perfect time management, stamina, and confidence.
Daily Test Series
Discipline as a daily habit.
Daily tests keep you practising every single day — so the exam starts to feel familiar. The format is deliberately game-like: three lives per day; skipping does not cost a life.
The big lesson is what to attempt and when. Many students waste 15–20 minutes on questions they do not truly understand. Daily Test Series trains you to decide quickly.
Rapid Fire Series
One minute per question. By design.
One minute per question. It is fast on purpose. Rapid Fire trains time-pressure decision making, reduces anxiety, and teaches you to trust your preparation. The more you practise this format, the calmer and quicker you will be on exam day.
Live Tests — 9 PM EST Daily
Surprise exam — because the real one will not warn you.
Every day at 9 PM EST, a surprise exam goes live — taken only at that time. This simulates the randomness of the real exam: one question Endodontics, the next Periodontics. You practise adapting quickly, staying focused, and switching gears without panic.
