PLAB 1 · GMC MLA content map

PLAB 1 revision, built on the map the exam is set against

Since 2024, PLAB 1 has been set against the GMC's MLA content map. PassFinals is built against the same map: a first-principles knowledge base, a single-best-answer question bank in the exam's 5-option format, and scheduling that brings topics back before you forget them.

Why PassFinals fits PLAB 1

Built on the map PLAB 1 is set against

Since 2024, PLAB 1 has examined the GMC's MLA content map. PassFinals has 400+ condition pages mapped against that same map, so your revision follows the exam's own syllabus.

UK practice is what the exam tests

PLAB 1 asks how conditions are managed in UK practice. Every condition page here is written around UK guidance - NICE and the BNF - not another country's habits.

Questions in the exam's format

The question bank is 5-option single best answer, the same format as PLAB 1, with a written explanation for every option - including why the four wrong answers are wrong.

First principles, not rote lists

Each condition starts from mechanism - why the biology produces the clinical picture - so presentation, investigations and management can be derived rather than memorised.

PassFinals covers the written-exam knowledge PLAB 1 tests. It does not cover the clinical stations of PLAB 2.

Start free, upgrade if it earns it

Sample conditions and questions are free, no card required. Full access to every condition page and the complete question bank is £24.99/year.
