Is StackMed designed for UKMLA revision?
Yes. StackMed is built specifically for UK medical students preparing for the UKMLA AKT and written finals. Questions are AKT-style, explanations focus on clinical reasoning, and content is mapped to MLA presentations and content areas.
How many questions are included?
StackMed includes 12,000+ AKT-style SBA questions covering core UKMLA specialties and MLA content areas.
What do the explanations include?
Every question includes an explanation for each answer option — not just the correct answer. Each distractor explanation identifies why that option is wrong and what the correct clinical reasoning is.
Are study plans included?
Yes. All paid plans include 30+ structured study plans alongside the question bank and 1,000+ teaching pages.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. You can cancel at any time and keep access until the end of your billing period.
Is the 7-day trial available on every plan?
Yes. The 7-day free trial is available when signing up to any billing length. You won't be charged if you cancel before the trial ends.
Can I use StackMed for written finals before the MLA?
Yes. It is designed for written finals as well as UKMLA AKT preparation, particularly where exams use applied SBA-style clinical questions.
Is StackMed only for final-year medical students?
No. Final-year students are the core audience, but clinical-year students can also use StackMed to build SBA technique and strengthen weak areas earlier.
