Question 1

What makes Blip different from other question banks?

Accepted Answer

Most question banks give you a list of questions and a score at the end. Blip is a drill system. Blip studies your history and performance in real time and builds sessions around what you actually need to work on, targeting what you've flagged, what you've missed, and what's overdue. Speed Challenge trains you under real time pressure to build the pacing the INBDE demands. The Quiz Builder gives you more control over your sessions than any other platform. And every answer choice comes with a full explanation so you learn from every question, not just the ones you get wrong.

Question 2

Why does Blip have fewer subjects than other platforms?

Accepted Answer

By design. Our subjects are carefully consolidated and mapped to how the INBDE actually tests content, not how dental school organizes courses. Instead of splitting related content across dozens of narrow topics, we group them by exam relevance so you can drill efficiently without bouncing between overlapping categories. Every subject is curated to match the real exam blueprint.

Question 3

How does Blip compare to Bootcamp or Booster?

Accepted Answer

Bootcamp and Booster are comprehensive courses, videos, study schedules, AI tutors, and more bundled together. Blip takes a different approach. Our co-founder Dr. Silppa passed the INBDE on her first attempt, and her philosophy is simple: nothing prepares you like drilling a high volume of quality questions under realistic conditions. Blip is built around what we believe actually works: focused, active drill practice over passive review.

Question 4

Is Blip the only INBDE prep tool I'll need?

Accepted Answer

It can be, especially paired with free resources like Mental Dental and Anki. But if you're already using a comprehensive course, Blip's drill modes give you something those platforms don't: focused, high-volume active practice where it actually counts.

Question 5

What do I get for free?

Accepted Answer

50 questions on day one, 10 per day after that. Study mode with full explanations and full tagging. No credit card, no time limit. Enough to evaluate the question quality, the interface, and whether Blip fits how you study.

Question 6

Who writes the questions?

Accepted Answer

Dr. Silppa, an endodontist who practiced in India, earned her MPH and dental hygiene license in the U.S., and passed the INBDE on her first attempt. Every question is clinically reviewed and refined by her for accuracy and exam relevance.

Question 7

Do you have a mobile app?

Accepted Answer

Not at this time, but maybe someday. Currently, Blip is a responsive web app, it works on any device with a browser. No app store download needed. Full functionality on phone, tablet, and desktop.

Question 8

Can I cancel anytime?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Monthly plans cancel anytime. The 3-month and annual plans are one-time purchases. No recurring charges, no surprises.
