If I was a dental student studying for the INBDE I'd start with this.

Dental school: $250,000
Dental school materials: $20,000

Room and Board: $130,000

Not to mention miscellaneous costs and surprises like a blown car transmission and medical bills to name a few.
When I first heard these numbers from someone close to me applying to dental school as an international dentist, I couldn't believe what I was seeing - $400,000.
And, after she already paid her $1,300 exam bill, she needed to find a way to scrape together another $500 for advanced prep study tools that expire in 6 months. That's when I saw an opportunity to build Teefs Prep.
The INBDE is a standardize exam that evaluates a candidate's clinical judgment, problem-solving skills, and scientific knowledge to safely practice entry-level dentistry.
Teefs Prep is a completely free for dental students and simulates INBDE style questions, generated by AI. I'm first and foremost a software engineer, but formerly an educator and avid studier. I built everything students need to get a free boost in their studies while paving the road for growth, and improvement along the way.

Teefs Prep - Practice questions, track progress for dental students

Every other INBDE study tool buries you in videos, flashcards, and games and confusing UX. Not to mention, all of these services cost dental students hundreds of dollars for a few months of use. Teefs Prep was designed to fill that gap by offering a high quality user centric app for free that works on every device.
