About the Consultant Dermatology Prometric Exam (DER5762)

The Consultant Dermatology Prometric exam is the computer-based licensing assessment doctors must pass before a Gulf regulator will license them under the Consultant Dermatology professional title. The DHA lists it under exam code DER5762, and the same paper is used across the region's authorities. It is the consultant tier, the senior grade above specialist, and carries the heaviest experience and publication requirements of the three classifications.

The sitting is 100 multiple-choice questions in 3 hours — about 1.8 minutes per question — and the pass mark is 70%. There is no negative marking and no penalty for a guess, so pacing matters more than caution: candidates lose marks to unanswered questions at the end of the paper far more often than to wrong ones.

The published blueprint for DER5762 weights the paper across 14 areas — basic science, papulosquamous and eczematous dermatosis, urticaria, erythema's, purpura and connective tissue diseases, vesiculobullous disorders, adnexal, hair, nails and mucous membranes diseases, metabolic, systemic diseases and disorders of dermal connective tissues and subcutaneous fat, infections, infestations and bites, cutaneous neoplasms, pediatric dermatology, procedural dermatology, skin manifestations of other diseases, pigmentary disorders and photodermatosis, patient safety and professionalism and ethics. Those headings are where your revision time should go, and the guideline names 5 reference texts the questions are written from. Our chapters follow the same split, so a weak score in one chapter maps directly onto a blueprint area you can go back and fix.

This bank holds 2,952 explained MCQs written to that blueprint, with a full written explanation on every question — including the reasoning that rules the other options out. Retries are unlimited, and the timed mocks run at the real 100-question, 3-hour, 70%-to-pass settings so exam day is not the first time you sit the paper at that pace.

One paper, seven regulators: whether you are booking the Consultant Dermatology exam through DHA in Dubai, MOHAP or DOH elsewhere in the UAE, SCFHS in Saudi Arabia, QCHP in Qatar, NHRA in Bahrain or OMSB in Oman, the syllabus overlap is substantial and the same preparation carries across. Where the authorities differ is the pass mark, the eligibility tier and the number of attempts they allow — not the content of the paper.

Consultant Dermatology exam — frequently asked questions

What is the exam code for the Consultant Dermatology Prometric exam?

The exam code is DER5762. You will see it on the DHA Sheryan listing and on your Prometric booking confirmation; quote it when you book so you are scheduled onto the right paper rather than a neighbouring grade.

How many questions are in the Consultant Dermatology exam and how long is it?

100 multiple-choice questions in 3 hours — about 1.8 minutes per question. It is delivered on computer at a Prometric test centre, and there is no negative marking, so never leave a question blank.

What is the pass mark for the Consultant Dermatology Prometric exam?

70% for the DER5762 paper under the DHA guideline. Other GCC authorities publish their own thresholds for the same content, so confirm the figure with the regulator you are applying to before you book.

What topics does the Consultant Dermatology exam cover?

The official blueprint splits the paper across 14 areas: Basic Science, Papulosquamous and Eczematous Dermatosis, Urticaria, Erythema's, Purpura and Connective Tissue Diseases, Vesiculobullous Disorders, Adnexal, Hair, Nails and Mucous Membranes Diseases, Metabolic, Systemic Diseases and Disorders of Dermal Connective Tissues and Subcutaneous Fat, Infections, Infestations and Bites, Cutaneous Neoplasms, Pediatric Dermatology, Procedural Dermatology, Skin Manifestations of Other Diseases, Pigmentary Disorders and Photodermatosis, Patient Safety and Professionalism and Ethics. Our chapters follow the same split so you can see which blueprint area is costing you marks.

Which authorities accept the Consultant Dermatology Prometric exam?

The Prometric-delivered paper feeds the licensing pipelines of DHA (Dubai), MOHAP (UAE), DOH (Abu Dhabi), SCFHS (Saudi Arabia), QCHP (Qatar), NHRA (Bahrain) and OMSB (Oman). Each regulator sets its own eligibility tier, pass mark and attempt limit, but the syllabus overlap is substantial.

How should I prepare for DER5762?

Work through the 2,952 explained MCQs chapter by chapter, read the explanation on every question — right or wrong — then sit the timed mocks at the real 100-question, 3-hour setting until you are clearing 70% comfortably rather than narrowly.

The 3-month plan was enough for a repeater like me. Skimmed the strong chapters, hammered the weak ones. Passed.

Affordable pricing that still delivered quality. Coming from Sudan the currency conversion was important - the checkout showed my local price which built trust.

Worth every dirham. The mobile experience is smooth - I revised on the metro every morning for 3 weeks and passed SCFHS on the first try.

The dentistry bank is stronger than anything I found on YouTube channels. Especially the perio and prostho sections - very high yield.

Coming from an Indian nursing background, the GCC-specific patient-safety and legal-framework questions were the hardest. This bank covered them properly.

Passed my DHA on the first attempt. The chapter-wise breakdown made revision so much easier - I could focus on my weak areas without going through 5,000 questions randomly.

The referral discount + coupon combo made this really affordable for a family with two doctors preparing at once. Both of us cleared DHA back to back.

Loved the interface - clean, fast, no ads. The retry mode where you only see the ones you got wrong is a lifesaver in the last week before the exam.
