Is this Emergency Medicine mock exam really free?

Yes. All 25 questions, your score, the domain breakdown and the full worked answers are free, with no sign-up and no email required. The paid bank is a separate, much larger set of 480 questions.

Are these real Emergency Medicine exam questions?

They are original questions written to the official Emergency Medicine blueprint and drawn from our full bank - not leaked or recalled items, which would breach exam security and are frequently out of date. They match the real exam's format, difficulty and domain weighting.

What is the pass mark for the Emergency Medicine exam?

60%, for DHA exam EME5531. The authority reports only pass or fail - your actual score is never released to you, which is why a diagnostic like this is the only way to see where you stand.

Does passing this mock mean I will pass the real exam?

No, and we will not claim otherwise. 25 questions cannot predict a full-length paper. What it does reliably show is which blueprint domains you are currently weakest in.

How many attempts do I get at the real exam?

Three in total across all UAE authorities under the Unified Professional Qualification Requirements - not three per authority. Each attempt costs roughly AED 1,030.

What topics does the Emergency Medicine exam cover?

The published blueprint splits into 13 domains covering 240 testable sub-topics: Resuscitation, Shock and Airway Management, Trauma, EMS, Prehospital and Disaster Medicine, Cardiovascular and Respiratory Emergencies, Toxicology and Environmental Emergencies, Pediatric Emergencies, Orthopedic and Musculoskeletal Emergencies, Neurologic and Psychiatric Emergencies, Gastrointestinal and Abdominal Emergencies, Obstetric and Gynecologic Emergencies, Endocrine, Metabolic, Electrolyte, Renal and Genitourinary Emergencies, Hematologic and Oncologic Emergencies, Infectious Disease, HEENT, Ophthalmology, Dermatology and Palliative/End-of-Life Care, Patient Safety, Professionalism, Ethics, Evidence and ED Operations. The full weighting table is on this page.

How long is the Emergency Medicine exam and how many questions?

~150. Duration: 3 hours. Question count, duration and pass mark vary by authority and must be confirmed against the current candidate bulletin.

Do I need to create an account to take this mock exam?

No. There is no sign-up, no email capture and no payment. The questions, your score, the domain breakdown and the full worked answers are all free, and nothing is held back behind a form.

Sit 25 real questions at real exam pace

These are 25 genuine questions taken from our Emergency Medicine bank - one from each domain on the official blueprint. You get 72 seconds per question, which is exactly the pace of the real EME5531 exam (30 minutes for 25). At the end you will see which domains you are weakest in, and the full worked reasoning for every question.

A short diagnostic cannot predict whether you will pass - only the real exam does that. It will show you, honestly, where you currently stand.

What the real Emergency Medicine licensing exam looks like

Emergency Medicines applying to practise in the UAE sit a computer-based multiple-choice examination - DHA exam code EME5531, delivered through Prometric for DHA, MOHAP and SHA, and through Pearson VUE for DOH Abu Dhabi. The pass mark is 60%, and the result is reported to you as pass or fail only - your score is never released.

The paper is built to a published blueprint, which is why a domain-by-domain diagnostic is more useful than a raw percentage. Your questions above were drawn one per domain across Resuscitation, Shock and Airway Management, Trauma, EMS, Prehospital and Disaster Medicine, Endocrine, Metabolic, Electrolyte, Renal and Genitourinary Emergencies, Cardiovascular and Respiratory Emergencies and 9 more - the same areas the real paper weights.

Before you can book the exam at all you need Dataflow primary source verification of your degree, licence and experience, which typically runs several weeks. Candidates routinely underestimate this and end up sitting the exam sooner after study than they planned. Check where you stand with our free eligibility checker or confirm whether your title even requires an exam using the Prometric exam checker.

You get three attempts in total across all UAE authorities - not three each - under the Unified Professional Qualification Requirements. At roughly AED 1,030 per attempt, plus the licensing delay each failure adds to your visa and start date, the cost of going in underprepared is not really the exam fee.

What is on the Emergency Medicine exam: the full blueprint

Questions: ~150
Duration: 3 hours
Pass mark: 60%

DHA Specialist Emergency Medicine (CONFIRMED): 150 MCQs, 3 hours, code EME5531, fee USD 280, pass score 60% - note this is 60%, not the 65% applied to most other DHA physician specialist exams. SCFHS Saudi Licensing Examination Emergency Medicine (CONFIRMED): 200 MCQs, 4 hours, pass 65% Registrar / 70% Senior Registrar. Saudi Board Emergency Medicine Part One: 150 single-best-answer MCQs, pass 65% with a hard floor of 60% and up to 10% unscored pretest items. MOHAP: typically 150 MCQs / 3 hours / 60%, three attempts. DOH: Pearson VUE computer-based, ~150 MCQs; a 2.5-hour duration is reported for some DOH papers (unverified for Emergency Medicine). QCHP/DHP: Prometric specialty paper, commonly 150 MCQs / 3 hours / 60%, maximum 3 attempts, required only for Category 3 qualifications. NHRA: Prometric, 60% pass for medical professions, 4 attempts in 3 years. OMSB: written paper of at least 100 MCQs; final certification exam pass mark 70% (adjustable to 65%). All are single-best-answer, typically 4 or 5 options - assume 4 unless the authority states otherwise. Oral assessments (DHA) are pass/fail on unanimous panel agreement, minimum 5 clinical scenarios, 20-30 minutes minimum.

A worked Emergency Medicine exam question

Every question in the diagnostic and in the paid bank is written to this standard: a clinical stem, four plausible options and the reasoning for the answer, with its source.

Resuscitation, Shock and Airway Management

A 48-year-old man with a large sublingual haematoma, limited mouth opening and reduced pulmonary compliance from pulmonary oedema requires airway management. Which mnemonic is specifically designed to predict difficulty with placement and ventilation via an extraglottic (supraglottic) airway device?

AMOANS
BLEMON
CRODSCorrect
DSHORT

Why: RODS (Restricted mouth opening, Obstruction/obesity, Distorted anatomy, Stiff lungs or cervical spine) predicts difficulty with extraglottic device placement and ventilation, and all four elements are relevant to this patient. MOANS (Mask seal, Obesity/obstruction, Age, No teeth, Stiff lungs) predicts difficult bag-mask ventilation, LEMON predicts difficult direct laryngoscopy, and SHORT (Surgery/disrupted anatomy, Haematoma, Obesity, Radiation, Tumour) predicts a difficult front-of-neck surgical airway.

How to use this diagnostic properly

1Sit it cold, once. Do not look anything up. A diagnostic you help yourself through tells you nothing. The number you get is only useful if it is honest.
2Read every rationale - especially the ones you got right. Getting a question right by elimination is not the same as knowing it. The worked reasoning is free above, whether or not you buy anything.
3Work weakest domain first. The breakdown orders your domains worst-first for exactly this reason. Studying what you are already good at feels productive and moves nothing.
4Re-sit under full exam conditions later. The real paper is far longer than this and stamina matters. Full-length timed papers are what the paid bank is for.
