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 Unani Practitioner licensing exam looks like
Candidates for a Unani Practitioner licence in the UAE sit a computer-based multiple-choice examination - DHA exam code PUN6062, delivered through Prometric for DHA, MOHAP and SHA, and through Pearson VUE for DOH Abu Dhabi. The DHA pass mark is 60% (DHA CBT Guideline, Sep 2026); other authorities set their own, so confirm yours before booking. The result is reported to you as pass or fail only - your score is never released.
Pass marks at a glance: DHA exam codes and pass marks for all written exams in one sourced table.
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 from across Diagnosis and recognition of red flags, Foundations of Unani medicine, Ilaj bil Ghiza and Hifzan-e-Sehat, Ilaj bit Tadbeer: regimental therapy and 3 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 660 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.

A worked Unani Practitioner 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.
Diagnosis and recognition of red flags
During a consultation, a 58-year-old man develops crushing chest pain spreading to his left arm with sweating. What should you do first?
- AGive a herbal heart tonic and observe
- BPerform dry cupping over the chest
- CAsk him to rest and return tomorrow
- DCall emergency services immediatelyCorrect
Why: These features suggest an acute coronary syndrome, which needs emergency care without delay. Traditional remedies must not delay emergency treatment.

Unani Practitioner sample questions with answers
4 more original exam-style Unani Practitioner questions, worked in full. They are not real or recalled exam questions, and none of them is in the diagnostic above, so sit that first if you have not.
Question 1 · Diagnosis and recognition of red flags
A patient describes a sudden, severe headache that reached its peak within a minute, the worst of her life, during exercise. What should the Unani practitioner do?
- AGive a cooling Zimad and review tomorrow
- BAdvise hijama on the neck that day
- CArrange urgent emergency medical assessment
- DPrescribe a Munzij and rest for a week
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: C. Arrange urgent emergency medical assessment
A thunderclap headache can indicate subarachnoid haemorrhage and needs emergency assessment. Delaying for traditional treatment could be fatal.

Question 2 · Foundations of Unani medicine
A client has soft, pale, cool skin, gains weight easily, sleeps excessively and feels sluggish. Which temperament do these features most suggest?
- ASafravi (bilious)
- BDamvi (sanguine)
- CSaudavi (melancholic)
- DBalghami (phlegmatic)
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: D. Balghami (phlegmatic)
Coldness and moistness, seen as pale soft skin, heaviness, excessive sleep and sluggishness, indicate a Balghami temperament. A Safravi temperament is hot and dry with a lean build and quick temper.
Reference: Ibn Sina, Al-Qanun fi al-Tibb (The Canon of Medicine)
Question 3 · Ilaj bit Tadbeer: regimental therapy
A patient taking warfarin for atrial fibrillation requests wet cupping. What is the most appropriate response?
- APerform it with deeper incisions to drain better
- BAdvise him to stop warfarin for a week first
- CPerform it and apply pressure for an hour
- DDo not perform wet cupping and explain the bleeding risk
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: D. Do not perform wet cupping and explain the bleeding risk
Anticoagulant therapy is a contraindication to wet cupping because of bleeding risk. Advising a patient to stop warfarin is unsafe and outside the practitioner's role, as it raises stroke risk.

Question 4 · Ilaj bil Ghiza and Hifzan-e-Sehat
Which of these is one of the Asbab-e-Sitta Zarooriya?
- ANaum wa Yaqza (sleep and wakefulness)
- BNabz (examination of the pulse)
- CArkan (the four basic elements)
- DDarjat (degrees of drug potency)
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: A. Naum wa Yaqza (sleep and wakefulness)
Sleep and wakefulness are one of the six essential factors that must be balanced for health. Nabz is a diagnostic sign and Arkan are part of the natural factors.

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.
