Everything you need to know about ADC registration and our courses
Pass rates for the ADC written examination vary by country of training, typically ranging from 50-70% for well-prepared candidates. Success rates are significantly higher for candidates who complete comprehensive preparation courses like GdayDentist and dedicate 6-12 months of focused study time.
Initial Assessment: AUD $647. Written Examination: AUD $2,122 (280 scenario-based MCQs over 2 days, 4 sections × 70 questions). Practical Examination: AUD $4,775 (2-day clinical assessment in Melbourne). Total ADC costs: approximately $7,500-8,000 AUD excluding preparation courses and travel.
You cannot work as a dentist in Australia until you pass the ADC exams and obtain AHPRA registration. However, you may work in related roles such as dental assistant, oral health educator, or in non-clinical dental positions while preparing for your exams.
You need to demonstrate English proficiency through IELTS (minimum 7.0 in each component, 6.5 in writing), PTE Academic (minimum 66 in each, 56 in writing), or OET (minimum B in each, C+ in writing). Graduates from recognised English-speaking countries may be exempt from English testing.
The complete process typically takes 12-24 months from initial application to final registration. This includes: Initial Assessment (8 weeks), Written Exam preparation (6-12 months), Written Exam (held twice yearly - March & September), Practical Exam preparation (2-4 months), and Practical Exam (held in Melbourne).
The ADC written exam covers 13 disciplines across 5 domains: Restorative Dentistry (12%), Pharmacology (10%), General Medicine (9%), Oral Medicine & Pathology (9%), Endodontics (8%), Oral Surgery (8%), Paediatric Dentistry & Orthodontics (8%), Periodontics (8%), Preventive Dentistry (8%), Dental Emergencies (7%), Pain & Behaviour Management (7%), Removable Prosthodontics (6%), and Radiography & Infection Control (5% each). Our course provides comprehensive coverage of all disciplines.
