Chapter 01 · the premise
It's a pass, not a race.
The FMGE is a qualifying exam. 300 questions, two separately timed papers, no negative marking. Get 150 right and you are through — and no one sitting beside you can take that from you.
There is no rank, no percentile, no cut-off that moves with the crowd. Just one fixed line.
Why it's different — Most FMGE prep is built to maximise a score. OneFiftyMD is built to cross one line — so every tool points at the cheapest marks between you and 150, not at marks you already have.
Chapter 02 · know where you stand
An honest map to 150.
After a test you get a projected score with an honest uncertainty band — a range that tightens as the evidence grows, not a flattering single number — and a heatmap of weakness by body system, pooled across every subject that tests it.
It shows the marks you are leaving on the table, subject by subject, ranked by how cheap they are to recover.
Why it's different — A weakness in cardiovascular physiology hides across four subjects at once. A per-subject bar chart never shows it. Our system heatmap does — and the projection shrinks toward the guess level, so it rises on evidence, never on one lucky mock.
Chapter 03 · learn from the traps
Every wrong option, explained.
The marks in this exam live in the distractors — the option that is right for a patient one detail different from yours.
So every wrong choice tells you not just that it is wrong, but the exact scenario it WOULD have been the answer to.
Why it's different — Other banks explain the correct option and stop. That teaches you this question. Explaining why each trap is a trap teaches you the next fifty.
Chapter 04 · the real thing
A faithful NBE sitting.
Part A and Part B on separate 150-minute clocks. A question matrix, flagging, option strike-through, and an image inspector with zoom, pan, contrast and a measurement reticle.
The clock lives on the server, so reloading the tab cannot buy you a second. But when fatigue slows you down, one cognitive reset per paper freezes the clock — rest that costs you no exam time.
Why it's different — The clock you cannot cheat is the clock you will actually face. And a humane, clock-frozen break is something a real exam does not give you — but your practice should.
Chapter 05 · nothing slips
Revision on autopilot.
Every question you get wrong is queued for revision automatically and returns exactly when you are about to forget it — 10 minutes, a day, a week, stretching out as the memory holds.
The schedule comes from a fitted memory model, not a fixed multiplier, so a card you keep failing genuinely comes back sooner.
Why it's different — Most flashcard decks use SM-2 and a fixed ease step. OneFiftyMD runs FSRS — the intervals adapt to your actual recall, so you revise less to remember more.
Chapter 06 · a bank you can trust
Written here. Sourced. Clinician-reviewed.
3,330 questions across 20 subjects, each authored from primary sources around a fresh patient — never lifted from a past paper.
Written and reviewed by clinicians trained at PGIMER, AIIMS, SGPGIMS and JIPMER — and practising in India, the US, the UK and Canada. The pipeline refuses to publish anything without a source, a reviewer, and an explanation for every distractor.
Why it's different — Every published item carries its source and an explanation for each wrong option, and answer positions are re-lettered deterministically — so nobody passes by learning the answer is usually A. A bank you can trust, not just use.
Chapter 07 · the promise
The whole thing is free.
Everything here is open to everyone — the full question bank with no daily cap, every Grand Test, the tutor, the image inspector and the analytics. No card, no locked tier.
Make an account — just your email, no password — and your progress, history and revision queue follow you to any device.
Why it's different — Most prep is sold by the month and is indifferent to whether you pass. This is the whole product, free, so nothing stands between you and the work.
