Marked in two halves
Free-text prescriptions are marked on drug choice first, then medicine, dose, route and frequency, with partial credit for defensible alternatives.
The BNF behind every mark
Each answer is explained with the BNF passage it rests on, so the explanation is the reference you will use in the exam.
Exam pace, exam format
Eleven full papers of 60 items and 200 marks, timed at two minutes per item, using the same section blueprint and answer formats as the real thing.
A readiness dashboard
Scores by section show which item style to revise next, rather than one overall percentage.

A guide and a real question for every style

Eight item styles, not one question type.

Three of the eight ask you to do something other than pick an option: write a prescription on a chart, tick prescriptions on a drug chart, or type a number in a stated unit. Practice that only uses single best answer leaves those untrained.
