Passing score & results
The DHA exam requires a minimum score of 60% to pass. However, competitive candidates aiming for faster placement often target 70%+ to demonstrate strong clinical competency. DHA may apply profession-specific adjustments, and candidates who fail may retake the exam after a mandatory waiting period, typically 45 days. Our mock exams simulate the exact scoring algorithm so you know your readiness before booking your official test date.
Where the questions actually come from.
Based on the published DHA General Practice blueprint — your study plan is weighted to match.
| Topic area | Weight |
|---|---|
| Chronic Diseases & Internal Medicine | 22% |
| Emergency & Critical Care | 16% |
| Pediatrics | 14% |
| Obstetrics & Gynecology | 12% |
| Surgery & Orthopedics | 11% |
| Dermatology & ENT | 9% |
| Psychiatry & Mental Health | 8% |
| Epidemiology, EBM & Family Medicine | 8% |
