Enter your percentage correct in each of the four SCFHS blueprint domains to get a blueprint-weighted figure — the one that reflects how SCFHS says the paper is built. It will not predict your scaled score, and the page explains why no honest tool can. Free, no sign-up.
These are the published blueprint weights. SCFHS adds its own tolerance: the guide says the distribution “may differ up to ±5% at each level”, so treat the per-domain question counts as the plan for the paper rather than a count of the paper you sit.
Enter all four domains to see the weighted figure. A weighted number from three of them would be wrong in a direction you could not predict, so this tool does not show one.
SCFHS reports the SPLE on a scaled range of 200 to 800, and the pass score is 536. It publishes no table converting raw marks into scaled scores, so nobody outside the commission can say how many of the 200 questions 536 corresponds to.
Two things follow. A scaled score is not a percentage, so dividing 536 by 800 and reading it as a percentage is meaningless. And any product that turns your practice percentage into “your predicted SPLE score” has made the number up. Judge readiness on domain-by-domain percentage correct instead, which is what this page computes, and on whether your weak domains are the heavily weighted ones. To practise against the blueprint, see the Myndaq SPLE course.
| Questions | 200, four-option single-best-answer, in 2 parts of 100 |
| Time | 120 minutes of testing time per part, with a scheduled 30-minute break between them — 270 minutes at the centre in total |
| Pacing | About 72 seconds a question |
| Unscored items | The exam “may include up to 10% of pilot questions”, which do not count. The guide does not say which ones they are |
| Attempts | 4 sittings a year until you pass, but never twice in the same testing window; then 2 after passing, to improve the score, which matters for residency selection. If you do sit twice in one window, SCFHS announces the result of the first dated test; the second still counts as an attempt and its result is void. |
Attempt rules have changed between guide editions - the 2022 edition allowed a further improvement attempt every year after the second, and the current one does not. Confirm the current rule with SCFHS before booking.
SCFHS reports the SPLE on a scaled range of 200 to 800 and the pass score is 536. That scale is not a percentage: the commission publishes no table converting raw marks into scaled ones, so nobody outside SCFHS can tell you how many of the 200 questions 536 corresponds to. In particular, 536 is not “67%” — dividing it by 800 is meaningless.
No, and any tool that claims to is inventing the number. Without a published raw-to-scaled conversion there is no honest way to turn a practice percentage into a scaled score. What you can do is judge readiness on percentage correct within each blueprint domain, weighted the way the real exam weights them, which is what this tool computes.
Four domains with published weights: Basic Biomedical Sciences 10%, Pharmaceutical Sciences 35%, Social, Behavioral and Administrative Sciences 20%, and Clinical Sciences 35%. On a 200-question paper that is roughly 20, 70, 40 and 70 questions. SCFHS attaches a tolerance to that plan — the applicant guide says the distribution “may differ up to ±5% at each level” — so the counts are the shape of the paper, not a promise about yours. The weighting is why a gap in Pharmaceutical or Clinical Sciences costs more than the same gap in Basic Biomedical Sciences.
Two parts of 100 four-option single-best-answer questions, with 120 minutes of testing time for each part and a scheduled 30-minute break between them — 270 minutes at the test centre in total, of which 240 are testing time. That is about 72 seconds per question. The guide says the exam “may include up to 10% of pilot questions”, which do not count towards your score; it does not say which ones they are.
Up to four sittings a year until you pass, but never twice in the same testing window. If you do sit twice in one window, SCFHS announces the result of the first dated test, and the second still counts as an attempt while its result is void. After passing you may sit it twice more to improve the score, which matters for residency selection. These rules have changed between editions of the applicant guide — the 2022 edition allowed a further improvement attempt each year after the second, and the current one does not — so confirm the current rule with SCFHS before you book.
SCFHS does not publish a sitting fee on its own pages, so this page does not state one. What it does publish is the eligibility service through Mumaris+, which is SAR 120 and takes five business days. That is an eligibility fee, not the cost of the exam itself — ask SCFHS or Prometric for the sitting fee, and check the SAR 120 at source, since SCFHS can revise it.
Every exam figure on this page was read in the SCFHS SPLE Examination Content Guideline (September 2025 edition) and on SCFHS's own service pages on 2026-09-20. Older editions of that guide describe a different paper — a 300-question exam in three sets — so anything quoting 300 questions is quoting a superseded guide.
