URL: https://dentovio.com/inbde/study-schedule

These are study-planning templates, not a validated formula or a prediction of passing.

## Six-month template

- Weeks 1–8: work through all 10 Foundation Knowledge areas; treat unfamiliar areas as new material.
- Weeks 9–16: timed question blocks, an error log, and a second pass through weak areas.
- Weeks 17–20: sustained Patient Box case practice, building toward the 140-item Day 2 load.
- Weeks 21–24: full-length simulation, targeted repair, taper, and exam-day logistics.

## Three-month template

- Weeks 1–4: use a practice test or prior JCNDE performance report to order Foundation Knowledge review.
- Weeks 5–8: timed standalone and case practice with an error log.
- Weeks 9–10: longer Patient Box sessions and late-session accuracy checks.
- Weeks 11–12: full-length simulation, targeted repair, taper, and logistics.

The official 2026 Candidate Guide requires at least 60 days between unsuccessful attempts and permits no more than four administrations in a one-year period.
