University of Pécs Dentistry entrance exam

Pécs Dentistry uses a complex entrance exam with a written multiple-choice part and an oral interview. The online written part is taken on the university exam platform through an individual link, while the interview is usually held through Zoom or MS Teams.
Written test

100 questions

Biology 20, Chemistry 20, General English 40 and Medical English 20.

Timing

1 hour 40 minutes

The official exam page lists 100 minutes for the written exam.

Oral interview

20-30 minutes

A professor asks medicine-related questions and checks motivation and communication.

What to prepare first

Biology

Cell biology, genetics, human organ systems, immunity, respiration, circulation, reproduction and development.

Chemistry

Stoichiometry, chemical bonds, solutions, acid-base chemistry, redox, organic chemistry and biomolecules.

English

General English speed plus medical vocabulary, science reading and clear interview answers.

Dentistry applicants should not treat the entrance exam as a soft interview. The written Biology, Chemistry and English parts are still a major part of the process, and the oral interview expects motivation plus medicine-related knowledge.
