What is the NHS numeracy pass mark?

It varies by trust and role, but most NHS numeracy assessments require around 75–80%. Always check the brief for your specific role.

Can I use a calculator?

Some trusts allow a basic calculator; others require mental and written calculation only. The mocks let you practise both ways.

Are these the same as the NMC CBT calculations?

Similar in style, but NMC CBT has its own dedicated section. We have a separate NMC CBT topic for international nurses.

How long should I spend per question?

Aim for around 1 minute per question on average — fast enough to finish, slow enough to double-check your decimal places.
