Look inside

A chapter, page by page.

From the Cardiovascular Medicine sample, which is the first two chapters of the real volume: the questions, the worked answers, and the back matter that makes the book usable.

  • Chapter 1, Acute Coronary Syndromes: the first two UKMLA SBA questions, each with five options and an Easy difficulty tag
    A chapter opens with its questions: vignette, lead-in, five options, difficulty tag.
  • Question page from the UKMLA Question Bank showing two cardiology SBAs tagged Medium
    Questions 3 and 4 of the same chapter, tagged Medium.
  • Answers and Explanations page: question 1, answer A, aspirin 300 mg chewed, with a worked explanation referencing NICE guideline NG185
    Answers and explanations start on a fresh page in the same chapter, each with its guideline reference.
  • Two worked SBA explanations, on the GRACE score and on fibrinolysis with tenecteplase, each ending in a NICE reference tag
    Every option is discussed, and the guideline behind the answer is named.
  • Quick Answer Key table listing the correct letter for every question
    The Quick Answer Key at the back, for fast marking.
  • Reference Index listing NICE guidelines, CKS topics and ESC guidance against the question numbers that cite them
    The Reference Index maps each guideline to the questions that rely on it.
  • Difficulty Summary table with easy, medium and hard counts for every chapter
    The Difficulty Summary: the easy, medium and hard mix of every chapter.
  • How to Use This Book page explaining the chapter structure, the three difficulty levels and a suggested approach
    The front matter explains the chapter loop and the three difficulty tiers.

How a chapter works

Attempt, mark, then read what you needed.

  1. Answer the chapter cold

    Each chapter is one topic with a run of questions in AKT format: a vignette, a lead-in and five options. Work them at about a minute each, the pace the exam sets.

  2. Mark from the same chapter

    Answers and Explanations start on the next page of that chapter. The Quick Answer Key at the back is there when you only want the letters.

  3. Read every explanation

    Each one walks the options, names the guideline behind the answer and carries a difficulty tag. The Reference Index turns those citations into a reading list.

10 volumes

Or buy any specialty on its own.

Every volume is the full, referenced question set for its specialties, £4.99 each. Same explanations as the app, in a format you can read anywhere.

Question Bank FAQ

Before you buy.

How many questions are in the Question Bank books?
5,205 across the 10 volumes, from 325 in Endocrine and Metabolic Medicine to 693 in Neuroscience and Mental Health. The complete set is the whole condition-based bank; the separate Clinical Presentations series adds 1,993 symptom-first questions.
Are the questions in AKT format?
Yes: a clinical vignette, a lead-in and five options with one best answer, the format the UKMLA AKT and PLAB 1 use. Explanations reference NICE, the BNF and specialty guidance rather than local protocols. Learn more →
How are the books different from the app?
They hold the same questions and the same referenced explanations, laid out chapter by chapter for reading. The app adds timed mocks, spaced-repetition flashcards and analytics; the books give you the whole set offline, as files you keep.
Should I buy one volume or the bundle?
One volume suits a single weak specialty and a short runway. The bundle suits anyone more than a few weeks out: it is the whole bank for less than the sum of the 10 volumes, and you can work them in blueprint order. Learn more →
Is there a free sample?
Yes: 25 SBAs with full explanations from the Cardiovascular Medicine volume, as a PDF, in exchange for your email. Same layout as the full books.
What format are the books?
Every purchase includes a PDF and an EPUB. The PDF keeps the typeset page and suits a laptop or tablet; the EPUB reflows to fit a phone or e-reader. You download both straight after checkout, and the link in your email keeps working if you need them again. Learn more →
Can I get a refund?
The books are instant digital downloads, so all sales are final and purchases are non-refundable; by buying, you consent to immediate access at checkout. If a file won't open or you were charged in error, email support@mlaprep.co.uk and we will put it right.
