UK NMC CBT for overseas nurses

The Test of Competence (ToC) is used to assess the skills and knowledge of people wanting to join the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) register from overseas or rejoin the register after a long period away from practice.

The test of competence is specific to the appropriate nursing field and always consists of two parts.Part 1 is a computer-based test (CBT). Part 2 is a nursing objective structured clinical examination (OSCE).

The Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) Test of Competence Part 1 exam is a computer-based test (CBT) consisting of 115 Multiple Choice Questions lasting 3 hours. NMC CBT is intended for nurses trained outside the EU (European Union) and the European Economic Area seeking employment as a nurse in the UK.

The CBT contains a numeracy test (which consists of short-answer questions requiring a numerical answer), objective questions and a theory test (which is multiple choice). The CBT can be taken at a Pearson VUE test center, available in most countries around the world. Candidates will be given a short tutorial on how to use the computer before starting the examination. All questions are scored as correct or incorrect, and there is no partial credit. Part A will comprise a 15-mark numeracy assessment. Part B will be a 100-mark theory assessment.

The Mock Test

The mock test is the highlight of our training. The mock test is designed to strengthen the candidate’s awareness about the test. Part A numeracy mock test is done on the time limit of 30 minutes for 15 questions including the images exactly as it is in NMC CBT test. Part B clinical nursing mock test is done on the time limit of 150 minutes for 100 questions. These 100 questions are distributed exactly according to the real CBT exam, with the same proportion of topics covered. Candidates successfully completing our mock test can apply for the NMC CBT and others can practice more and prepare for the test. Our exclusive CBT online training portal provides greater knowledge and understating the NMC CBT format.

“While taking the mock test, maintain a reasonable pace by spending no more than 2 minutes on each question. Always select the answer that is the ‘most’ correct from the given options. The CBT does not use negative scoring if a question is not answered, so do not randomly select answers or guess the answers as it will not improve the result.”
