How it works
Revision with a clear order
The hardest part of revising for the DFPH is often deciding what to do today. The portal decides for you. Each step follows the same rhythm, so you can settle into it and spend your energy on the content.
Work at your own pace. Finish a step in one sitting or across a few, and pick up exactly where you left off on any device.

AI marking
See what every mark was for
Write your answer as you would in the exam. It is marked against the mark scheme for that question, one point at a time, with half marks where a point is nearly there.
You see the marks you earned and the words that earned them, the points you missed, and wording that would have scored. Then compare with the model answer.
A revision aid, not an examiner. The mark schemes are our own and the questions are original.

Spaced review
Missed it? It comes back.
When you drop marks on a question, the portal schedules it for a later step. Get it right and the gap grows; miss it again and it comes back sooner. Your review sessions are built for you from your own answers.
