Medflow Learning: the UKMLA question bankbuilt for clinical reasoning.
Medflow Learning is a UKMLA question bank for UK medical students. Practise expert-vetted single best answer questions, see each answer as a clinical decision flowchart, and get a fresh patient case on anything you miss.
Expert-verified questions
Clinician-written UKMLA & AKT questions aligned to NICE guidance.
AI-generated fresh cases
Miss a question and AI writes a brand-new patient testing the same concept.
Interactive flowcharts
See exactly where your reasoning branched off.
A 24-year-old woman attends the emergency department with worsening breathlessness and wheeze over six hours. She is unable to complete full sentences. Respiratory rate 28/min, heart rate 118/min, peak expiratory flow 42% of predicted, oxygen saturations 95% on air.

A UKMLA question bank that tests reasoning, not recall
The UKMLA Applied Knowledge Test rarely asks you to repeat a fact. It gives you a patient and asks what you would do next. Medflow's questions are written the same way: a realistic scenario, five plausible options and an explanation for every one, including why the wrong answers are wrong.
When you miss a question, you don't just reread the answer. Medflow writes a fresh case on the same principle, with a new patient and new numbers, so you have to reason through it again. Bank questions are never repeated, which keeps your scores honest.
The Medflow Learning method: clinical reasoning over rote recall
Three steps that turn a wrong answer into a concept you actually own.
Answer expert-vetted questions
Single best answer questions written by UK clinicians and mapped to the GMC content map, each tagged by specialty, condition, learning objective and a 1–5 difficulty level.
Deconstruct it with a flowchart
Every explanation comes with a decision tree showing the investigation and management pathway, so you see how a clinician actually thinks rather than reading dense prose.
Retry a fresh scenario, then repeat
Get one wrong and Medflow writes a new patient case on the same principle, then schedules it to return at growing intervals until the concept is properly mastered.
Interactive clinical flowcharts
These are real flowcharts from the Medflow textbook. Pick a condition and follow the decision points exactly as they appear while you revise.

Anki-style retention, built from real exam questions
Flashcard apps like Anki work because they bring facts back just before you forget them. But the exam doesn't ask you to recall a fact — it asks you to apply it to a patient. Medflow keeps Anki's spacing and swaps the flashcard for a clinical case.
1. You miss a concept
Every answer is tagged to a learning objective. Get one wrong (or guess right slowly) and that concept enters your revision schedule.
2. It's scheduled to return
Like Anki, each concept is given a review date. Get it right and the gap grows; get it wrong and it resets to tomorrow.
3. It comes back as a new case
When it's due, you get a fresh question on the same concept — a new patient, new numbers — so you learn the principle, not the answer.

Anki on its own
Great spacing, but you review the same card until you memorise its wording — and you have to write the cards yourself.
Medflow
The same spacing, applied automatically to your weak concepts, tested with new exam-style cases each time. Expert-vetted bank questions are never repeated.
AI never becomes official content on its own
AI-generated questions are clearly labelled while you answer them and pass through a human expert review before joining the vetted bank. The expert-written bank remains the authoritative source.
Frequently asked questions about Medflow Learning
What is Medflow Learning?
Medflow Learning is a UKMLA question bank and revision platform for UK medical students. It pairs expert-vetted single best answer questions with clinical decision flowcharts, a clinical textbook and targeted AI practice.
Who is Medflow Learning designed for?
Medical students in the UK preparing for the UKMLA Applied Knowledge Test (AKT) and their medical school finals.
How does Medflow Learning differ from traditional question banks?
Every answer is explained as a clinical decision flowchart, and when you miss a question Medflow gives you a fresh case on the same principle instead of repeating the old one, so you practise reasoning rather than memorising stems.
Is Medflow Learning aligned with the UKMLA syllabus and NICE guidance?
Yes. Questions and textbook content are mapped to the UKMLA content map and written in line with current NICE guidance and UK practice.
