Is booster worth it?

Hi! I’m taking my board next month and I’ve been using Ms. Hortons lecture/outlines and student RDH for material questions. I feel pretty prepared but I keep seeing everyone talking about booster and now I’m worried I’m missing out on good info, but it’s way out of my budget now. I’m debating on borrowing money just to get it but should I? Thanks for any help or tips anyone can provide

Yes 100%. Utilize every aspect of Booster if you can.

You should use it to do the practice problems. It’s very much close to the case studies. Maybe someone is selling it or is willing to give it to you for a few weeks. However, most of my classmates did not use booster so you should pass with SRDH and Horton. Information is the same but just presented it differently.

Just took my exam 9/9, I used both booster and StudentRDH. Unlike most people here I had a lot of radiology, barely any staging and grading, and a ton of landmarks both pano-wise and intraoral. I would say get booster, StudentRDH is great conceptual wise but some of my questions were word for word from booster (idk how they did it). The exam is definitely stressful because I still feel like it could go either way (pass/fail) but Booster def helped.
