Free General Practitioner (GP) mock exam
25 real questions from our General Practitioner (GP) bank, timed at the exam’s own pace, scored against the 60% pass mark. You will see exactly which of the 13 blueprint domains you are weakest in - free, no sign-up.
Sit 25 real questions at real exam pace
These are 25 genuine questions taken from our General Practitioner (GP) bank - one from each domain on the official blueprint. You get 72 seconds per question, which is exactly the pace of the real GEN5331 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 General Practitioner (GP) licensing exam looks like
General Practitioner (GP)s applying to practise in the UAE sit a computer-based multiple-choice examination - DHA exam code GEN5331, 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 Emergency Medicine (Adult & Pediatric), Ophthalmology, Preventive Medicine, Public Health, EBM, Ethics & Professionalism, Orthopedics & Musculoskeletal 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 General Practitioner (GP) exam: the full blueprint
The published blueprint splits into 13 domains and 234 testable sub-topics. The diagnostic above samples across all of them, which is why its breakdown maps onto the structure the real paper is built from.

- Internal Medicine~11%20 topics
- Pediatrics~10%20 topics
- Obstetrics & Gynecology~10%19 topics

est. (SCFHS incorporates within domains; DHA/MOHAP list explicitly)
- Questions
- ~150 (SCFHS Board Part 1 uses 150; SMLE/some tracks up to 300 in two sections)
- Duration
- ~3 hours (DHA 165 min; QCHP/DOH ~3 hours)
- Pass mark
- 60% (DHA, MOHAP, QCHP); SCFHS Family Medicine Part 1 = 65% (adjustable, never below 60%)
Single-best-answer MCQs, mostly clinical scenario/vignette based, computer-delivered. DHA/MOHAP/SCFHS/QCHP/NHRA/OMSB use Prometric; DOH Abu Dhabi migrated to Pearson VUE. Typical GP paper ~150 Qs / 3 hours / 60% pass with up to 10% unscored pretest items. SCFHS may lower the pass score one mark at a time to reach a ~70% pass rate but not below 60%. Weights below anchor to the published SCFHS Family Medicine Board Part 1 (24-27) blueprint; DHA/DOH/QCHP publish topic lists but not fixed percentages, so cross-authority weights are estimates and must be verified against the candidate's current authority bulletin.
A worked General Practitioner (GP) 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.
Emergency Medicine (Adult & Pediatric)
A hypotensive blunt trauma patient is being resuscitated. Current guidance favors which transfusion strategy for major hemorrhage before definitive control?
- ALarge volumes of crystalloid to normalize blood pressure
- BWhole blood avoidance and diuresis
- CColloid boluses until blood pressure exceeds 140 mmHg systolic
- DBalanced ratio transfusion of packed red cells, plasma, and platelets with permissive hypotensionCorrect
Why: Modern trauma resuscitation for major hemorrhage uses balanced (approximately 1:1:1) transfusion of red cells, plasma, and platelets, damage-control resuscitation, and permissive hypotension until surgical/radiological hemorrhage control is achieved. Excessive crystalloid worsens coagulopathy and dilutional anemia, and driving blood pressure high before bleeding is controlled can dislodge clots and increase bleeding.

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.
