The Department of Health (DOH) examination is the new name of the licensing authority. Its previous name was the Health Authority of Abu Dhabi (HAAD). The DOH is the licensing body in Abu Dhabi. It functions to issue the license of any medical professional and even to the license of the hospital/facility.

This is to safeguard your patient as well as for your safety as a medical professional.
So let’s discuss about the examination.
It’s 150 random questions in a span of 3 hours. The number is fixed to be 150. It’s up to you to consume the 3 hours maximum time. It is a multiple-type of questions.

During the examination, you can skip a center number if you are not sure if you got a correct answer. Meaning to say, you still can move forward to another number by flagging a particular item that you want to go back after you finish all the questions. This allows you the capability to check your answers before submitting it all.
During the examination, you also have your small whiteboard and marking pen that will be given by the test administrator. You will not have a calculator because it will already appear on the screen.
The allowed maximum time for you to sit for the exam is 3 hours. During these 3 hours you may excuse using the comfort room anytime that you may want to go out of the testing room. When you do, you need to raise your hand so that your test administrator will be notified. But take note that you cannot pause your computer for a break because you are going to use the comfort room, your screen time will continue.
