SMLEMed preparation resources
Your SMLE preparation starter pack
Start with a manageable schedule, check your booking requirements, and practise explaining why each alternative is less appropriate.
Build your study plan
Reserve one day each week for rest or catch-up. Use the final 30% of study days for mixed practice, mocks and review.
About 43 new questions per study day
35 days for first-pass coverage; 16 days for consolidation. Each day: 36 minutes answering and 54 minutes reviewing.
This workload may exceed your available time. Reduce the target or choose a longer plan; explanations need time too.
A planning aid, not a prediction of passing. Adapt it with your reviewer or tutor.
Before you book
- Read the current SCFHS applicant guide and check your Mumaris Plus application requirements.
- Confirm your identity documents and any primary-source verification requirements.
- Use the eligibility details issued for your application when scheduling through the official booking channel.
- Confirm the centre, date, fees and cancellation rules before paying.
- Keep the confirmation and check test-day identification requirements.
Practise, then review the reasoning
Try the sample explanations and record three things: the decisive clue, why your chosen distractor was tempting, and what would make it correct in another case. Clinical review is ongoing; report unclear items through support.
