how to pass the California dental law and ethics exam

Sourced answer

The California dentist Law and Ethics Exam costs $125 for the Board application (once per two-year eligibility window) plus $27.23 per PSI sitting, is taken in person at PSI test centers, and publishes no official question count or fixed passing percentage — a dentist panel sets a criterion-referenced cut score per test form (16 CCR §1031), and Board sunset-review data shows pass rates fell to 71-78% in FY 2021-23. Study California-specific law numbers from current sources; materials quoting "60 questions" or "75% to pass" describe a different exam. The RDH exam (Dental Hygiene Board) and RDA Combined Written Exam are separate exams with different rules.
