### 3/5 — Interface

*2026-08-06*

Very nice interface, but need to add dark mode

### 2/5 — OKAYish app

*2026-06-25*

It seems the app is poorly invested in seeing how it lacks even the basic functionality that you get if using browser, e.g. if you have spent a bit more time on a question doing some thinking and the screen turns off, one you turn it back on, the question changes automatically to a different one. Better off using the browser instead.

### 2/5 — Unable to access personalised notes

*2026-06-21*

Hi, In the past couple of updates, you guys have removed all ways to review personalised notes without starting the Qbank for that particular specialty again. Request you to please do that

### 3/5 — App doesn’t auto save progress

*2026-04-21*

App needs to keep saving automatically, need more options for studying. Connectivity can improve.

### 4/5 — Good bank of varied subjects for MRCGP

*2026-04-21*

Good bank, questions are generally well thought out and fair, so it’s still very useful for revision.

The standard of the app overall seems to have gone downhill since I used it for finals over a decade ago sadly-lots of spelling and grammar errors, several options/answers not visible on the app, as well as images.  

At the end of each set of questions it states I’ve not completed 100% of the questions, despite all being filled out.  Each issue is small but becomes frustrating over time.

### 2/5 — Amazing content with painful technical problems

*2026-02-08*

The questions and the overall content of the app is really good. But the real problem begins when we try to do some mock exam, past papers or a long q bank session. For example, if I’m giving a mock test which has 100 questions, after finishing 70 questions, the app lags, disturbingly logs out by itself and when I try to resume the session, it starts from question number 20. By the time I skip past 5 questions, the app lags again and logs me out. It’s becoming increasingly frustrating with exams coming nearer. If need to waste some 30 - 40 mins like this for every 100 questions (120 mins), it’s making me wonder if it’s truly worth for such money. It’s painful and discouraging. FYI, this issue occurs even when the app is up to date. Kindly fix this issue. Otherwise it’ll be a reputation killer

### 3/5 — Many problems in the app. Questions and explanations are relevant to the exam.

*2026-01-14*

The app Logs off itself many times while using the app for revision. Have to login again and again. It’s very frustrating. App doesn’t work properly even if internet signals are slightly poor. This makes the use of app very difficult for the revision. 
Only the web version works properly that too if you have a very good and stable internet connection. It’s very difficult for us who are working full time and prepare for the exam whenever we get time; during breaks, public transport etc.
I have used other apps. They work well even with poor internet signals. 
Giving 3 stars because the app content is very relevant to the exam. A good app experience would have fetched 5 stars.

### 4/5 — Fix bugs pls

*2025-12-21*

Kindly update this app. Firstly it opens late and then past exams questions are uploaded slowly

### 1/5 — SLOW

*2025-12-05, version 1.2.63*

Slow and lags. Not user friendly

### 1/5 — Skips the solved questions

*2025-11-26, version 1.2.59*

Whenever I solve a block it skips 10-15 questions that I solved already.

### 3/5 — App needs refinement

*2025-11-23*

The subject content is good. Passes my MRCP part 1 with it, but the app needs very much refinement. The website and app data are not correlating, session are not continuing from the same question we logged off. It’s starting much earlier. It’s frustrating and wasting time.

### 1/5 — Very poor

*2025-11-12, version 1.2.59*

Question and answer s Statics are extremely poor

### 1/5 — Horrible user experience

*2025-11-09*

Laggy to say the least, the user experience is extremely bad. The fonts used, the way we access an explanation, almost everything about this app is so so bad, especially when you’re paying 100s or pounds!

### 1/5 — Incorrect progress

*2025-11-07, version 1.2.59*

The progress bar does not show correctly the number of questions answered or the ratio of how many wrong/right. Ongoing problem.

### 3/5 — Buggy

*2025-10-05, version 1.2.59*

It has been super buggy… doesn’t record my answered questions and register some as skipped. Doesn’t sync well across devices also and tends to log out.

### 1/5 — The new update is bad.

*2026-07-14*

The new update is so bad. Previous version was far better. The new version has so many glitches and user interface is really bad. I cannot solve questions without getting distracted. It doesn’t tell which ones are the unsolved questions.

### 1/5 — NOT ABLE TO REVIEW A PAST PAPER OR QUESTION MODULE BY FILTERING INCORRECTS AT ONCE

*2026-06-09*

NOT ABLE TO REVIEW A PAST PAPER OR QUESTION MODULE BY FILTERING INCORRECTS AT ONCE in PASTEST APP IOS.. Even if you click incorrects and then start reviewing your answers and explanation. As soon as you click next question, it will show you the exact next question in serial number irrespective of it is the one you marked correctly or incorrectly. The filter doesn’t work. Trash user interface of this application

### 1/5 — Very glitchy

*2026-05-21, version 1.2.71*

Just add the website to your Home Screen and it works much better

### 1/5 — CANNOT ENLARGE FONT SIZE. VERY SMALL FONT. App logsout by itself. Have to login evertime.

*2026-02-02*

Kindly bring an update that can address the following issues:

CANNOT ENLARGE FONT SIZE. VERY SMALL FONT. We should be able to increase font size in explanations and questions.
App logsout by itself. Have to login evertime.

### 1/5 — Most pathetic app I used in my lifetime

*2026-01-13*

It is absolutely horrible to use, lags and loads for eternity. I want to hit myself for perchasing this app. Please do not make the same mistake as mine.

### 1/5 — Worst experience ever

*2026-01-04*

This is the worst app experience I’ve ever had. I’ve been trying to sign in since morning, but it fails every time. Even when I somehow manage to log in, the app automatically signs me out. On top of that, the service team is completely unresponsive. This level of service is unacceptable and extremely frustrating

### 1/5 — Time waste app

*2026-01-02*

I really wanna use slang for the developer of this app and also for my self for purchasing it. The app is really frustrating when you wanna continue your previous unfinished session it takes almost a hour to load and get back to previous place, explanations are not appropriate as in for wrong options it just says that answer is right, even the analysis at the end is also always wrong, really frustrated with this app.

### 1/5 — Bugs and Glitches

*2025-12-29*

This is the worst app I have ever seen in my life. Plenty of bugs and glitches. Every time I complete 100 mcqs there is always a glitch ans it will show me that I have attempted 93 or 94 mcqs. There is sometimes problem in flagging/bookmarking a question.

### 1/5 — Wasting lot of time

*2025-12-24*

App keeps crashing and I have to waste so much time to get it to start back up. Have had to restart so many tests coz of this issue. Did not face this when I subscribed last time for part 1 exam. Really annoying .

### 1/5 — Horrible app very slow

*2025-12-18, version 1.2.63*

Not opening every time glitch

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Good qbank and mock exams

*2026-05-20, version 1.2.71*

Questions are similar on how they are also asked in the actual exam

### 5/5 — Makes study like a game

*2026-03-02*

I love how it makes doing revision questions a bit like a game. Helps my ADHD brain to be motivated

### 5/5 — Great app

*2025-11-14*

Good question and explanations, the app is great at explaining and has offline feature

### 5/5 — Excellent app

*2025-10-26, version 1.2.59*

The question bank is extensive and well-explained, with answers backed by current guidelines and concise learning points. I like how the app tracks performance by system and topic.The interface is smooth, and offline access is a big plus for studying on the go.

### 5/5 — Pastest Review — A Must-Have for MRCP Preparation

*2025-10-08*

Pastest has been one of the most valuable tools in my postgraduate exam journey. I’ve used it extensively for MRCP(UK) preparation, and it truly stands out for its clarity, clinical focus, and adaptive question bank.

🔹 Content Quality

The question explanations are detailed, evidence-based, and concise enough for quick review. What I particularly liked is how Pastest integrates relevant NICE and ESC guidelines, making it an excellent bridge between textbook theory and clinical reasoning. Each question not only tests recall but also reinforces decision-making in real-life scenarios, which mirrors the exam style perfectly.

🔹 Interface & User Experience

The interface is clean, intuitive, and works seamlessly on both mobile and desktop. The ‘Custom Sessions’ and ‘Timed Mode’ features helped me simulate exam conditions effectively. The progress tracker and performance analytics are motivating, especially during the final months of revision.

🔹 Learning Value

For MRCP, the explanations often include mini-tutorials—short summaries that cover the entire concept, not just the question. For EDIC, the physiology and ventilation questions are well-pitched to critical care standards. I often found Pastest questions to be slightly harder than the actual exam, which made the real test feel more manageable.

🔹 Overall Verdict

Whether you’re preparing for MRCP Part 1 and Part 2, Pastest provides structure, depth, and confidence. It’s not just a question bank—it’s a learning system that builds your clinical reasoning progressively.

⭐ Final Rating: 5/5 – Comprehensive, reliable, and indispensable for exam success.

### 5/5 — Easy to use

*2025-09-24*

User friendly, makes completing practice questions quick and easy. No functionality issues

### 5/5 — Request

*2025-07-01*

Please add images/flow charts in explanation wherever possible. For example a pathology slide showing peripheral smear with the cells that is asked in question or image showing the branch of vessel in question

### 5/5 — Freezing App.

*2025-06-06, version 1.2.59*

The information is excellent but my concern is the App keeps freezing all the time especially the videos. I have been trying to watch the video lectures but the App keeps freezing all the time and consuming my battery. I strongly suggest that something should be done about it as soon as possible.Thank you.

### 5/5 — App review

*2025-02-25*

App needs refinement app automatically logs out have to sign in multiple times also after solving past year papers there is app glitch with having to go to the question number after logging out

### 5/5 — Great resource!

*2025-01-23*

Great complimentary resource to the pastest question bank - very useful for revising sporadically and on the go. Works well, easy to navigate and is free with pastest subscription so well worth downloading if you have one
