PLAB part 1 is a three-hour computer-marked written examination comprising 180 single best answer questions.

At Plabable, we focus on delivering high-yield content tailored to both parts of the exam.

Ratings and reviews

it serves its function, but with some issues: - It keeps prompting to download resources for offline use, even when offline - There are times where the content wont load. Had to open-close it a few of times. can't blame it on the internet connection because I've downloaded the resource for offline - when writting comments, the text box is covered up by the keyboard Also, I understand why sc/copy text is blocked but is that rly necesary? if I want to steal content, the website is there

I sincerely want to thank the entire *PLABABLE* team for their incredible work. I used your platform for my preparation, and I can honestly say that almost the entire paper came from there. Every single word felt familiar! I truly appreciate all the effort you’ve put into creating such a helpful and high-quality resource. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

I have a suggestion that will help improve students and help them identify which topics they are weak at.. When the students are writing timed exams, you can try to collect the time taken to solve each question. You create a database and average time to solve each of these questions. and when one particular student takes significantly > average time..Then suggest that student that particular topic. I'm sure you can develop better algorithms but that is an idea I wanted to share.
