All you need to know about the CBT exam
The NMC CBT exam is a competence-based evaluation that assesses the skills and abilities of individuals who wish to join or re-join the NHS, either from within or outside the UK, after a prolonged period away from the profession.
The first part of the Test of Competence is a computer-based assessment called CBT.
What is a Competency-based Test/ Assessment?
CBT is a component of the Nursing and Midwifery Council’s (NMC) registration process which assesses the core competencies, knowledge, and attitudes required for safe and effective nursing practice within the UK.
What is the purpose of the CBT test?
The CBT exam evaluates your understanding and application of different aspects of nursing and midwifery practices in the UK. It includes questions that consider your skills in analysing, synthesizing, and assessing other areas of practice, such as:
- adult nursing
- child nursing
- learning disability
- nursing
- mental health nursing
- midwifery.
In order to gain UK registration in the area of nursing, you are interested in, you must complete a Competency-Based Test (CBT) that will assess your skills relevant to that nursing speciality. The CBT must be completed in a practice setting.
CBT Exam Format
The CBT consists of two sections: Part A focuses on numeracy skills, and Part B includes questions related to nursing or midwifery.
Part Number of questions Time Question type
Part A – Numeracy 15 30 minutes The nursing numeracy exams and practice tests include questions that assess your numeracy skills in a variety of contexts, such as adult, child, mental health, or learning disabilities.

How do I prepare for CBT?
Many candidates are sceptical about CBT training once they finish OET or IELTS. They often ask whether they need to take institutional training or online training. They can go to the Pearson Vue website and practice the mock test to get an overview of CBT.

About Instructor
Having ten years of teaching experience made me teach OET confidently, and I got many opportunities to interact with the plethora of OET students. I have realized that many OET students hate grammar for different reasons; mentioning one is teaching. And there, my grammar research commences. I was approaching OET grammar to make it simple, which was very difficult for me initially. I realized why the OET students feel grammar is the most challenging part of English. Through that experience, I have conducted research myself. At last, my dream comes real through Tiju’s Academy, the top result-oriented online and offline OET Coaching Centre in Kerala, India, the epitome of a simplified way of learning OET online and offline. I have been teaching grammar to students efficiently for decades.
