Over the past year MDI Prep has worked with over 75 foreign trained dentist and found that one of the obstacles faced by many of the dentist is a proficiency in English. How would it feel to read and understand information on a topic that is in a language you are not 100% comfortable with? Some of our students have expressed a frustration in how long it takes them to translate certain medical terms from their language into English. Others have stated that they feel there was some differences in the way they were taught dentistry compared to many U.S. programs. The message that each foreign dentist agreed upon was that if they had a better understanding of the English language, it would help with their preparation for the INBDE.
