# inbde results

Answer: INBDE results post to the candidate's DENTPIN account within four weeks of the exam — in most cases within three weeks. Results are pass/fail: passing candidates see only the word 'Pass' with no numeric score, while failing candidates receive their overall scale score (on a 49–99 scale; 75 is the minimum pass) plus a graphical breakdown with numeric per-area scores across the 3 Clinical Content areas and 10 Foundation Knowledge areas. A scale score is not a percentage of questions answered correctly, and there is no penalty for guessing. A results audit costs $105 and must be requested within 30 days of the reporting date, per the 2026 Candidate Guide (updated 08/04/2026).
