Frequently asked questions

About our mock tests
Are the Oman Nursing Licensing Examination mock tests free?

Mock Test 1 is free. Create a free account with your email or Google, then press Start mock test on this page. No payment or card is needed, and you can take it as many times as you like.

Mock Test 2 and Mock Test 3 are part of the paid test series for this exam, so they show a lock for now. When a package is available it is listed under Packages on this page, and the locked tests open as soon as you buy it.

How many questions are in the mock test, and how long does it take?

Each of the three mock tests has 20 multiple-choice questions and a 25-minute timer (60 practice questions in all). That gives you about 1ΒΌ minutes per question.

Every correct answer scores 1 mark and there is no negative marking, so it is always worth answering. You can mark questions for review and jump between them with the question palette. The test submits itself when the timer reaches zero, and if the page reloads your answers are kept on that device.

How is the mock test different from the real OMSB exam?

The real OMSB nursing exam (OEN) is 100 multiple-choice questions in 2 hours 30 minutes, taken on computer at a Prometric test centre.

Our mock test is a shorter practice set of 20 questions in 25 minutes, so you can do it in one sitting. The real exam allows 1.5 minutes per question, so the mock timer also helps you practise your speed.

All questions are original. We write them from standard textbooks and the published exam content; they are not leaked or recalled exam questions. A short test cannot predict your real result, so use your score to find the areas you need to revise.

Which syllabus topics do the mock questions cover?

The questions follow the Oman Nursing Licensing Examination syllabus on this page, which has seven sections:

  • Principles of care
  • Evidence-based practice
  • Adult health
  • Maternal health
  • Child health
  • Mental health
  • Community health and gerontology

The percentage next to a section shows its share of the real exam; the note at the top of the syllabus says where the figures come from.

Each question is labelled with a topic (for example Vital signs, Infection control and Respiratory), and after each test your dashboard shows your strong and weak topics. A 20-question test cannot cover every section, so use the syllabus to plan the rest of your revision.

Can I see the correct answers and explanations, and retake the test?

Yes. As soon as you submit, you see your score and accuracy, then every question with the correct answer marked and a short explanation. You can filter the list to show only the questions you got wrong or left unanswered.

You can retake the test as often as you like. Your dashboard keeps your past scores so you can follow your progress, and if you set this as your target exam with your exam date, it shows a countdown and daily study goals.
