AFK EXAM

Assessment of fundamental knowledge

AFK (Assessment of fundamental knowledge) is the first step for internationally trained dentists to become licensed in Canada. The AFK test is a multiple-choice exam that checks your biomedical and clinical sciences knowledge. It has two books, each with 100 single-answer questions. The exam covers what a new Dental Practitioner in Canada needs to know. Questions come from 8 major areas.

  • What is the difference between the AFK Mastery Course and AFK Regular Course
    The AFK Essential course and the AFK Mastery course both cover the same comprehensive material needed to prepare for the AFK exam. The key difference is the pacing. The Mastery course provides extra time for each module, making it ideal for working professionals, new moms, or anyone who can't dedicate full-time hours to study and might need more than a week to complete each module. The Essential course is designed for those who can commit to a more intensive study schedule.
  • If there enough time to complete the course and view all the material in 6 months ?
    The answer to whether six months is enough to complete the course and view all the materials depends on your dedication and the time you can commit to the course. If you are a full-time student, six months is generally enough. In fact, students who take our six-month course and study full-time usually pass the exam on their very first attempt. However, if you plan to work while studying, we offer other options tailored specifically for students who are working while taking the course. These options are designed to accommodate your schedule and ensure you can still be well-prepared for the exam.
  • Is the content in the AFK prep course enough to pass the AFK exam?
    Yes, the content in our AFK prep course is more than enough to help you pass the AFK exam. Our course materials are regularly updated, precise, and specifically focused on the AFK exam, ensuring that you are well-prepared to succeed.
  • Can I join the course if my NDEB profile is not approved or in process?
    Yes, you can definitely join the course even if your NDEB profile is not yet approved or is still in the process. In fact, it's better to start your preparations for the AFK exam while your profile is under review by the NDEB or even before you've begun the approval process. If you are ultimately planning to go through the NDEB, it's wise to start your preparation as soon as possible. Since the approval process can take up to six months, you can utilize that time effectively by taking a course and getting well-prepared while waiting for your approval to come through.
  • How long is the NDEB Equivalency Process?
    The entire NDEB Equivalency process takes around 3-4years.
  • Can I defer my course if I didn't get the confirmation of my exam seat from NDEB?
    Yes, you can defer your course if you don't get a seat for your exam. We announce a deadline before which you can transfer your course to the next cycle at no additional cost. This deadline is usually set around the exam registration date, allowing you to plan accordingly.
