Every practice question maps to one of them, so you train on exactly what's tested.
No - and that matters. These are original practice questions written to mirror the style, difficulty, and chapter coverage of the PHTLS exam blueprint. We never distribute actual exam content, so practicing here keeps you fully compliant with official exam policies.
No. PHTLS Exam Prep is an independent study resource for Prehospital Trauma Life Support (PHTLS). It is not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by the official certifying body or exam administrator.
Every paid plan unlocks the full bank of 1,000+ practice questions covering all 22 PHTLS chapters - PHTLS history and development, Principles and critical thinking, Physiology of shock, Physics of trauma, Scene assessment and management, Patient assessment and management, Airway and ventilation, Head and neck trauma, Spinal trauma, Thoracic trauma, Abdominal trauma, Musculoskeletal trauma, Burn injuries, Pediatric trauma, Geriatric trauma, Injury prevention, Disaster management, Explosions and weapons of mass destruction, Environmental trauma: heat and cold, Environmental trauma: lightning, drowning, diving and altitude, Wilderness trauma care, and Civilian tactical emergency medical support. You can practice the whole bank, filter by chapter, or run a timed, chapter-balanced exam simulation.
Yes - the bank is maintained against the current exam outline, and questions are revised when the exam changes.
No honest practice platform can guarantee a pass. What realistic practice does is show you - before exam day - exactly which chapters are weak, and give you the repetitions to fix them. That's the difference between hoping you're ready and knowing where you stand.
Yes. You get 10 free sample questions with instant feedback - no credit card and no account required.
The free sample shows you the question quality. Paid plans unlock the full 1,000+ question bank, exam-style practice modes, mistake review, and - on Fast Track and Pass Confidence - progress analytics that show your readiness by chapter.
No. Every plan is a single one-time payment for a fixed access window - 48 hours, 7 days, or 6 weeks. There is no auto-renewal and no recurring billing.
Match it to your exam date: Final Review (2 days) for an exam in the next day or two, Fast Track (7 days) for an exam this week, Pass Confidence (6 weeks) for a structured run-up.
For most countries, the price you see is exactly what you pay - tax is already included. Where local law requires it to be added separately, it's shown clearly at checkout before you pay, so there are never any surprise fees.
Access is instant after payment and runs for your plan's full window from that moment. When the window ends, your local progress stays on your device - you can buy another window any time and pick up where you left off.
Yes - the whole platform is mobile-first: practice, mistake review, and analytics all work on any phone, tablet, or laptop with a browser. Nothing to install.
Every answer feeds your per-chapter accuracy, readiness score, and weak-area list. Instead of re-reading everything, you drill the chapters that are actually costing you points - that's what moves a score in days, not months.
Chat with us any time - the 24/7 support chat in the corner of every page gives instant answers about plans, access, and billing. Prefer email? The contact link is in the footer. Payments are processed securely by Polar, and active customers can download an invoice from their profile page.
Make sure you're signed in with the same email you used at checkout - access activates within a minute of payment. If it still doesn't appear, email us from the contact link in the footer and it'll be sorted out.

Real feedback from PHTLS candidates on Reddit.
"put off studying till like 3 days before my refresher. did a bunch of practice questions on this site and it actually lined up with how the case scenarios were worded. passed, didnt expect that tbh."
"was skeptical since its just a course completion thing not a real standalone exam, but our instructor still wanted us solid for the written part. the hemorrhage control section messed me up first try, redid the missed ones and it clicked eventually. wasnt fun but it worked."
"almost didnt bother prepping since ive taken phtls before, but the scenarios on phtlsexam.com for airway and shock stuff were closer to the actual case studies than i expected. recieved my card no problem this time."
