• Each and every UMock subscription is continuously updated with current medical literature to provide users with the most advanced, evidence-based content and clinical practices. UMock content is updated automatically to your subscription to ensure you’re preparing with accurate exam material, and providing immediate access as it becomes available.

• Qbank Questions - When new content becomes available, updated Qbank questions will appear in the unused question pool. At the end of the question, you will see when the most recent update occurred.

• Updates to exam material are automatically uploaded to your subscription as long as it remains active.

• Please refrain from requesting when a new update will arrive, or how many questions might be added. The UMock team works consistently to provide frequent updates as new content becomes available to ensure you’re preparing with the most relevant course material.

• UMock provides a reset option for Qbank subscriptions. The reset option applies to Qbanks ONLY.

• Qbank subscription resets - Your Qbank subscription must be characterized by one of the following to qualify for a reset:

  1. Purchased a 180-day subscription, or
  2. Retained an active, uninterrupted subscription for at least 180 days

• Resets for UMock subscriptions are permitted one time per paid subscription.

• If you choose to reset your subscription your entire history will be cleared and all questions will be moved back to the unused question pool. The questions will not change from their original form unless there is an update to the content. You can then begin answering the questions again.

• Subscriptions cannot be reset more than once. You will need to purchase an additional subscription if you’d like to reset your Qbank a second time.

• Please advise that renewal subscriptions do not change or reset your Qbank questions. Renewal subscriptions simply increase the duration of your active subscription.

• You will not receive new questions by renewing your subscription. Renewal subscriptions only increase the duration of your existing subscription to provide additional time to prepare for your exam.

• Individual UMock subscriptions contain the same number of questions and provide all users with the same content, continuously updated from the most current medical literature. When new Qbank questions become available, they will appear in the unused Qbank question pool.

You will not receive new questions by purchasing a new subscription. UMock subscriptions offer the same content and number of questions to all users. As content is continuously updated you will receive updated Qbank questions through the term of your subscription, appearing in the unused question pool.

• You can reuse multiple Qbank questions without resetting your subscription by selecting the checkbox located next to the red flag icon by the unanswered question(s).

• Ensure you have bookmarked every unanswered question you plan to reuse, and then generate a new test. You will have to generate the test by selecting bookmarked question mode.

• You will need to repeat this process again in order to reuse the same unanswered questions again.

• Your UMock data can be restored from an expired subscription and integrated with a newly purchased subscription, available only by request and by following the steps below:

1. The new subscription must be purchased with the same account and username as the expired subscription
2. You must contact UMock via email to request a data restore and include your username.
3. Once you’ve submitted your request, DO NOT turn on or access your new subscription. Doing so will result in a loss of your data, and it cannot be recovered.
4. UMock will send you a confirmation email once your data is restored. The process is performed daily between the hours of 8am - 6pm EST, and will typically take 24 hours to send you a confirmation.
5. Once you have received a confirmation email from UMock, you may access your subscription.

• Mock Assessments allow you to evaluate your results, and help you assess where you need to score higher. Users prepare with the Mock Assessment in a timed setting like the real exam. Mock Assessments are divided into blocks with a 1-hour time limit to complete each block.

• Time Blocks
  Users are given the option to choose different time block combinations to simulate a real testing environment. For example, by selecting 4 continuous blocks, you would run a 4-hour Mock Assessment. Users have the option to pause testing during the middle, or at the end of each block.

• Mock Assessment Ques
  Mock Assessment Ques are different from questions found in the Qbank.

• Test Results
  Results are provided using a scoring system similar to the exam you’re preparing for, and are based on comparative UMock user data. Users can review the full exam for up to 15 days from turning it on.

• UMock subscription content may only be accessed online, and cannot be replicated in any form, including but not limited to printing, saving, copying, or screenshotting (including screen captures on mobile devices).

• Testing Accommodations Steps:
  1. Sign into your UMock account
  2. Turn on your subscription.
  3. Launch the Mock Assessment, but DO NOT start any of the exam
  4. Immediately close your exam
  5. Email support@usmlemock.com and provide information regarding the time you are allowed to be accommodated for each block.

If this happens, locate the “date last updated” box at the bottom right of the question. Here you can see when the content was updated, as well as additional information on what the update included. Once you’ve reviewed the updated content, you can manually correct the highlight.
