Plabable provides the ultimate resource to revise for the Professional and Linguistic Assessment Board (PLAB) exam which is the main route by which International Medical Graduates demonstrate they have the necessary skills and knowledge to practise medicine in the UK. Our platform is developed and maintained by a team of experienced UK-based medical professionals. All educational content is carefully created, regularly reviewed, and continuously updated by our team to ensure accuracy and relevance.

PLAB part 1 is a three-hour computer-marked written examination comprising 180 single best answer questions. PLAB part 2 is structured as an Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE) comprising 16 stations. The scenarios simulate real-life clinical settings and assess a range of skills including history taking, physical examinations, communication, and clinical management. At Plabable, we focus on delivering high-yield content tailored to both parts of the exam. Our question banks, realistic OSCE scenarios, and practical exam tips are designed to maximise your chances of passing on your first attempt.

Ratings and reviews

Here are a few suggestions and problems I've faced using the app: 1. Whenever I submit an answer, there's kind of a glitch displaying the next question with the answered options. It happens for a split second before the question renders normally. So I have to look away when submitting the answers so I'm not bias when answering the next question. 2. I can't zoom into pictures anymore. It'd be nice to be able to do so at least while going through the corrections

Score calculation for categories doesn't function most of the time since the new update.

everything you need for plab in one place, I didn't use anything else, in 2 months, this was enough to get me across it with ease. A must do for plab!
