Best AKT Question Bank 2026
Every GP trainee preparing for the AKT faces the same question: which question bank should I use? There are several options out there, each with different strengths. Here is an honest feature-by-feature breakdown to help you decide.
We built AKT Navigator, so take this comparison with that context in mind. But everything listed below is factual and sourced from each provider's public website. We have noted where we got each figure so you can verify it yourself.

The detailed breakdown
PassMedicine
PassMedicine is the question bank that most trainees have heard of. It covers around 3,500 questions for about £35 over four months. The questions are well written and many trainees swear by it. The main limitation is that there is no audio and no AI analysis of your performance. If you are someone who learns best by reading and doing questions on a screen, PassMedicine is a solid choice.
Pastest
Pastest has been around for a long time and has a good reputation across medical exams, not just the AKT. Their AKT bank has around 2,500 questions and costs between £95 and £180 depending on the subscription length. The explanations are generally thorough. The downside is the price, especially for trainees already paying for courses and textbooks.
BMJ OnExamination
BMJ OnExamination offers around 1,200 AKT questions for about £50 over six months. It has basic performance tracking and the questions are written by GPs. The question count is smaller than other options, which means you may see repeats if you go through the bank more than once.
i-Medics
i-Medics offers around 3,000 free AKT questions. If you are on a tight budget, it is a reasonable option. The questions vary in quality and there is no adaptive learning, audio, or performance analysis. It works best as a supplement alongside another resource rather than your primary revision tool.
AKT Navigator
AKT Navigator has over 20,000 questions, which is significantly more than any other AKT question bank. It includes 50+ hours of audio revision across all 32 topics, adaptive learning that builds sessions around your weak areas, unlimited mock exams with AI-powered debriefs, and a conversational AI supervisor you can chat with about any topic.
It is free for the April and July 2026 sittings. After that, a competitive pricing plan will be introduced. AKT Navigator was built by a GP trainee who wanted something better than what was available, so it is designed around how trainees actually study: short sessions, on-the-go audio, and smart question selection that adapts to your gaps.
So which should you choose?
It depends on how you learn best. If you want the biggest question bank with audio and AI features, AKT Navigator gives you more for free than others charge for. If you prefer a battle-tested question bank that your friends used, PassMedicine is the safe bet. If money is no object and you want thorough written explanations, Pastest is reliable.
Many trainees use more than one. AKT Navigator is free, so there is no reason not to add it to whatever else you are using. The audio alone is worth it for commute and gym time that would otherwise go to waste.
