In the NHRA documents we read, the only guide to the nursing exam's content is a list of nine reference books; NHRA says the list is a study guide only and that questions may come from other sources too. The four areas are our choice, guided by the subjects of those books; NHRA publishes no content outline and does not say how the exam divides between subjects, and the share of each area in a mock is ours too. Each question has one correct answer, and no question turns on a drug dose or on a rule that differs from one hospital or country to another.
Not practised here
- children's nursing, mental health nursing and nursing management, which NHRA's reference list does not name
- drug dose calculations and local hospital policies
- the midwifery and ambulance nurse exams, which have their own NHRA reference lists
What you see after every mock
- Your score out of 100 and your score in each area, so you can see which area costs you the most marks.
- Your time per question, against a clock of 2.5 hours for 100 questions.
- The reason behind every answer, with the nursing principle it rests on.
A score here is your score on our questions. It is not an NHRA exam result and does not predict one.
The exam, as NHRA and Prometric describe it
- NHRA's nursing qualification requirements say every nursing applicant must pass the Bahrain Nursing Licensure Examination to get a licence. Only Bahraini or GCC nationals holding a valid GCC licence are exempt. The same document lists UAE (DHA and HAAD), Qatar and Oman Prometric "Registered Nurse" results and the Saudi "Nurse Specialist" result as accepted.
- You apply to NHRA first. Once your application is approved, NHRA sends an eligibility code, and you use it to book the exam with Prometric.
- Prometric gives a seating time of 3 hours, with 2.5 hours of actual exam time.
- NHRA's guide sets the pass mark for nursing at 50%. Prometric's page says 60% for all Bahrain licensure exams, so check with NHRA before you sit.
- NHRA allows four attempts within three years of the first, and a pass is valid for five years. Its rules on further attempts after retraining are set out in its licensure-examination guide and nursing qualification requirements.

No. It is independent practice by ProSyllabus.
How many questions are in the real exam?
NHRA and Prometric do not publish a question count. Our mocks have 100 questions in the 2.5 hours of exam time Prometric gives; the count is our choice.
Will this make me pass?
