Choosing the right Q-bank depends on your exam, your learning style, and your budget. This hub page provides direct access to every iatroX comparison, organised both by platform and by exam.

Compare by Platform

iatroX vs Passmedicine (2026)

The workhorse comparison. Passmedicine offers volume and affordability. iatroX offers adaptive targeting and guideline integration. Most candidates use both.

iatroX vs Pastest (2026)

Premium volume vs adaptive precision. Pastest has 3,400+ AKT questions. iatroX has the adaptive engine. The combination is the strongest AKT stack available.

iatroX vs Quesmed (2026)

App-first daily routine vs performance-based adaptive targeting. Quesmed wins on flashcards and offline UX. iatroX wins on adaptivity, NICE integration, and diploma coverage.

iatroX vs BMJ OnExamination (2026)

Brand trust vs adaptive intelligence. BMJ at £150/year vs iatroX free for core exams. BMJ covers mainstream exams only; iatroX covers mainstream plus every niche diploma.

iatroX vs Geeky Medics (2026)

Different tools for different assessments. Geeky Medics for OSCE/CPSA. iatroX for AKT and MCQ revision. The complementary stack is more powerful than either alone.

iatroX vs Osmosis (2026)

US-focused vs UK-focused. No overlap for UK postgraduate candidates. If you are sitting a UK exam, iatroX is the relevant platform.

iatroX vs GPhC Q-Banks (PreRegExamPrep, ONtrack, Coditioning)

See the complete GPhC Q-bank comparison for a detailed review of every pharmacy revision platform.

The Three iatroX Differentiators

Across every comparison, three differentiators are consistent:

1. True adaptive engine. Not a scheduling algorithm or static rotation — a performance-based engine that targets your weakest areas dynamically.

2. NICE/BNF/guideline integration. Explanations anchored to current UK guideline text via RAG. When guidelines update, explanations update.

3. Niche diploma coverage. The only adaptive platform covering DRCOG, DFSRH, DGM, DipIMC, FFICM, DTM&H, DCH, and GPhC alongside mainstream exams. A single iatroX Boards subscription provides access to all.
