Paper 1 + Paper 2
Mock exams built for the real UKMLA AKT format.
The real UKMLA AKT is two papers of 100 SBA questions each, sat on consecutive days with two hours per paper. UKMLARevisions mirrors that rhythm so you build stamina and confidence under the same timing and load — instead of peaking in one block and hoping you can repeat it on Day 2.

How it works
Three things every mock does for you
A mock is not just 180 questions in a row. The real value is the combination of timing, structure, and feedback. Here's what each mock on UKMLARevisions delivers.
Real exam timing
100 questions per paper, 2-hour timer, separate Day 1 and Day 2 sessions. Two-day stamina is rehearsable, but only if you actually rehearse it.
AI mock debrief on every attempt
After every mock, an AI debrief pipeline produces a structured verdict (4-tier: Needs Work / Getting There / On Track / Exam Ready), a Mock Pearl, recurring decision-error Patterns, Twist Family analysis, and a recommended next-step block. You don't have to interpret the score yourself.
MLA-mapped breakdown
Every mock attempt is broken down by Area of Clinical Practice, Clinical Presentation, and Professional Capability — the same three layers the GMC uses. You can see exactly where the marks went.
Pacing matters
Why timed practice beats untimed every time
Clinical knowledge gets you most of the way there. Pacing closes the gap.
The most reliable predictor of first-attempt failure is not lack of knowledge — it's lack of pacing rehearsal. Candidates routinely finish revision banks at 80–85% accuracy and then drop 10–15 percentage points in their first timed mock simply because they're unprepared for the cumulative cognitive load of a real-length paper.
The fix is not more questions. It's more mocks, run end-to-end, in a quiet room, on a timer, with no pausing to look up answers. Build that habit four to six weeks before your exam date and the score gap closes.
Mock debrief
What you get back from every mock
Verdict tier
A 4-tier classification (Needs Work / Getting There / On Track / Exam Ready) calibrated to historical pass-mark data. No black-box score; the tier rules are published.
Mock Pearl
The single most important takeaway from this mock — the one concept or pattern that, if internalised, would have moved your score the most.
Patterns
Decision-error patterns the system detected across multiple questions — for example management-order errors, premature anchoring, or guideline misapplication.
Twist family analysis
When you got a question wrong, the system identifies which other questions in the bank share the same twist (e.g. 'first-line vs second-line management') so you can drill the family.
Failure-mode card
If a recurring failure mode is detected (e.g. repeatedly choosing the most invasive investigation), the debrief flags it explicitly with examples.
Next-step recommendation
A specific 20–40 question block tailored to your weakest patterns from this mock — your next session, recommended.
A common search
Are there UKMLA past papers?
No. The Medical Schools Council and GMC do not publish real UKMLA AKT past papers, and they are not going to. Anyone selling "UKMLA past papers" is not selling the exam you will sit.
What does exist is the MSC's free practice exam (200 items) plus full-length mocks that match Paper 1 / Paper 2 timing. Use those. Official context: Medical Schools Council.
