Good to know. This is independent practice. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or approved by the NMC, the test centres or any exam body. The scenarios are original and use no real exam content. The scoring is our own practice rubric, not the NMC marking criteria. It builds skills; it does not guarantee a pass. Written with AI from the official NMC materials, and checked word for word against them. Practice material, not advice for real patient care: follow your employer's policy and the NMC Code.
