FAQ

Questions, answered.

Is the app free?
The download is free and your first 2 topics are fully unlocked — questions, flashcards and notes — so you can judge the quality before paying anything. A Premium subscription unlocks all 694 topics, the full question bank and unlimited mock exams; pricing is shown in the app before you subscribe.
Does it cover PLAB 1?
Yes. PLAB 1 and the UKMLA AKT are written to the same GMC MLA Content Map, so the topics, questions and flashcards apply to both. The app also includes a PLAB-to-UKMLA transition guide for international medical graduates.
Is there an Android version?
No — the app is iOS-only (iPhone and iPad). On Android or a computer, use the MLA Prep web app at mlaprep.co.uk instead: it runs in any browser, no install needed.
What's the difference between the app and the website?
They're separate products. The iOS app is built for offline, on-the-go study and is unlocked with an in-app subscription. The MLA Prep website is a browser-based study platform with its own question bank and pricing — see mlaprep.co.uk/pricing for that side.
Does it work offline?
Completely. The full content database ships inside the app, so questions, flashcards and notes all work with no connection — on the ward, on the train or abroad. Your progress is stored on the device.
How many questions does the app have?
7,198 single-best-answer questions in UKMLA format, each with a worked explanation, plus 11,118 flashcards and revision notes across 694 clinical topics.

Take the question bank with you.

Free on the App Store — your first 2 topics are unlocked the moment it installs.
