Emergency medicine exam platform

Two exam pathways. One structured revision hub.

MRCEM and FRCEM are separate exam journeys. Each pathway has its own question bank, dashboard, mock engine, and revision structure.

Separate exam pathways

MRCEM and FRCEM are distinct revision tracks.

Each exam has its own curriculum level, question bank structure, analytics, mocks, and learning pathway. Both are accessible through separate dedicated hubs.

Original SBA samples

Separate question banks for separate exams.

Bespoke demonstration questions for the platform build. These are original examples created for layout, learning flow, and future editorial review; they do not copy commercial question banks or protected exam material.

MRCEM product sample

MRCEM SBA question flow

MRCEM
Exam: MRCEM SBA Topic: Cardiology Difficulty: Moderate Mode: Revision

A 58-year-old man presents with central chest pain and diaphoresis. ECG shows ST elevation in II, III and aVF. Blood pressure is 92/58 mmHg and the chest is clear. Which additional ECG finding would most strongly support right ventricular involvement?

Answer

B. ST elevation in V4R

Inferior STEMI with hypotension and clear lungs should raise suspicion of right ventricular infarction. Right-sided chest leads, especially V4R, help identify right ventricular involvement and guide cautious preload-sensitive management.

Key pearl: In inferior STEMI with hypotension, record right-sided leads early.

Mapping: MRCEM SBA, clinical presentations, cardiovascular emergencies.

Exam: MRCEM Primary Topic: Pharmacology Difficulty: Core

Which receptor is primarily antagonised by naloxone when reversing opioid-induced respiratory depression?

Mu opioid receptor.

Naloxone is a competitive opioid receptor antagonist with clinically important reversal at mu receptors, where opioid respiratory depression is mediated.

FRCEM product sample

FRCEM Final SBA question flow

FRCEM
Exam: FRCEM Final SBA Topic: Resuscitation Difficulty: Advanced Mode: Tutor

During adult cardiac arrest, a patient remains in ventricular fibrillation after three shocks with high-quality CPR ongoing and IV access established. Which drug strategy is most appropriate at this point?

Answer

C. Adrenaline and amiodarone after the third shock

In refractory shockable adult cardiac arrest, drug therapy is integrated with uninterrupted CPR and defibrillation strategy. After the third shock, adrenaline and amiodarone are used while reversible causes are actively sought.

Key pearl: Defibrillation and CPR quality remain the priority; drugs must not delay shocks.

Reference field: Resuscitation Council UK adult ALS guidance.

Exam: FRCEM Final SBA Topic: Head injury Difficulty: Advanced

An anticoagulated older adult attends after a head injury. They are clinically stable but need risk-stratified imaging according to local policy and national guidance. What is the safest platform behaviour for this question type?

Show a clear answer, rationale, and learning note after selection.

Guideline-sensitive questions can retain internal editorial metadata without interrupting the candidate's exam-style learning flow.

Curated MRCEM & FRCEM revision questions

Clinically reviewed single best answer bank.

A focused set of original, clinically reviewed SBAs across the MRCEM and FRCEM curricula. Each question carries a concise stem, matched observations, five options, an expandable explanation covering every option, key learning points, and links to reputable guidance. Questions are original educational content, not copied from commercial banks.

Curriculum spread

Broad coverage across both exams

The bank spans resuscitation, trauma, cardiology, toxicology, paediatrics, evidence-based medicine and more, with distinct clinical concepts and no duplicated stems.

Study dashboard

Performance tracking across both pathways

Candidate performance is tracked separately for MRCEM and FRCEM, with study progress visible across both pathways.
