Audiologist Prometric Exam

AUD4312 is the DHA code for the Audiologist Prometric exam, and its published blueprint splits the paper across 12 areas: ethics and professionalism, infection control, anatomy and physiology, physics of sound, instrumentation, pediatrics, adults and older adults, auditory evoked potentials, vestibular/balance, disorders and syndromes, hearing aids and implantable hearing devices and documentation and communication / counseling. That list is the syllabus — questions are written to those headings from 8 named reference texts, so revision that ignores it is revision spent on the wrong material.

About the Audiologist Prometric Exam (AUD4312)

AUD4312 is the DHA code for the Audiologist Prometric exam, and its published blueprint splits the paper across 12 areas: ethics and professionalism, infection control, anatomy and physiology, physics of sound, instrumentation, pediatrics, adults and older adults, auditory evoked potentials, vestibular/balance, disorders and syndromes, hearing aids and implantable hearing devices and documentation and communication / counseling. That list is the syllabus — questions are written to those headings from 8 named reference texts, so revision that ignores it is revision spent on the wrong material.

The sitting is 150 multiple-choice questions in 3 hours — about 1.2 minutes per question — delivered on computer at a Prometric test centre. The 55% pass mark works out at roughly 83 correct answers out of 150. Nothing is deducted for a wrong answer, so an unanswered question is the only guaranteed zero on the paper.

The paper is sat by allied health professionals applying for a licence under the Audiologist professional title. In practice the exam is rarely the bottleneck: the regulator has to accept your qualification and experience, and Dataflow has to return primary source verification, before a booking slot exists at all. Start that paperwork alongside your revision rather than after it.

This bank holds 2,400 explained questions cut to the same headings as the AUD4312 outline, each with written reasoning that also rules out the distractors. Retries are unlimited, and the timed mocks run at the real 150-question, 3-hour, 55%-to-pass settings — so the first time you sit this paper at full pace is not the morning it counts.

One body of content, seven regulators. DHA in Dubai, MOHAP across the UAE, SCFHS in Saudi Arabia, QCHP in Qatar, NHRA in Bahrain and OMSB in Oman all license the Audiologist title off a Prometric-delivered MCQ paper, and the overlap between them is substantial. DOH runs its sitting through Pearson VUE instead. What differs is the pass mark, the classification tier they will grade you into, and how many attempts they allow — not the medicine.

Audiologist exam — frequently asked questions

What does exam code AUD4312 cover?

AUD4312 is the Audiologist Prometric paper. The code appears on your eligibility approval and on the Prometric booking screen — quote it when you book, because neighbouring grades of the same profession have their own codes and their own papers.

How many questions is the Audiologist exam, and how long do I get?

150 questions in 3 hours, which is about 1.2 minutes each. It is computer-based at a Prometric centre, and you can flag and revisit questions before you submit.

What is the pass mark for AUD4312?

55% under the DHA guideline — roughly 83 correct answers out of 150. Nothing is deducted for wrong answers, so leave nothing blank. Other Gulf regulators publish their own thresholds for the same content, so confirm the figure with the authority you are applying to.

Which topics carry the marks in the Audiologist exam?

The published blueprint names 12 areas: Ethics and Professionalism, Infection Control, Anatomy and Physiology, Physics of Sound, Instrumentation, Pediatrics, Adults and Older Adults, Auditory Evoked Potentials, Vestibular/Balance, Disorders and Syndromes, Hearing Aids and implantable Hearing Devices and Documentation and Communication / Counseling. Our chapters use the same headings, so a weak chapter score points straight at the blueprint area to revisit.

Do I need a separate exam for each Gulf authority?

No. DHA, MOHAP, SCFHS, QCHP, NHRA and OMSB each license the Audiologist title off a Prometric-delivered MCQ paper built on the same content. DOH runs its sitting through Pearson VUE instead. What changes between them is the pass mark, the classification tier and the attempt limit — so one body of preparation carries across, but each application is its own file.

What does it cost to sit AUD4312?

DHA's exam guideline prices this sitting at USD 240, which is roughly AED 881 at the dirham peg. That is the test fee alone: the regulator's application charge and Dataflow verification are billed separately, and other Gulf authorities set their own amounts for the same paper.

What do I need before I can book AUD4312?

An eligibility approval from the regulator — your qualification and experience accepted against its classification rules — plus Dataflow primary source verification returned on your degree, licence and experience letters. The booking window opens after that, not before, which is why the paperwork should run in parallel with your revision.

Passed my DHA on the first attempt. The chapter-wise breakdown made revision so much easier - I could focus on my weak areas without going through 5,000 questions randomly.

The referral discount + coupon combo made this really affordable for a family with two doctors preparing at once. Both of us cleared DHA back to back.

Loved the interface - clean, fast, no ads. The retry mode where you only see the ones you got wrong is a lifesaver in the last week before the exam.

Very well organized. The pass score prediction after finishing chapters kept me honest - I re-attempted the ones under 70% until I was above 85% consistently.

Chapters were paced perfectly. 100 questions per chapter is exactly what you can knock out in one focused sitting.
