Massage Therapist Prometric Exam

MAS5511 is the DHA code for the Massage Therapist Prometric exam, and its published blueprint splits the paper across 6 areas: anatomy, physiological effects and contraindications of massage, basic techniques of massage, physical evaluation skills, management of diseases by massage and management of sport conditions by massage. That list is the syllabus — questions are written to those headings from 12 named reference texts, so revision that ignores it is revision spent on the wrong material.

About the Massage Therapist Prometric Exam (MAS5511)

MAS5511 is the DHA code for the Massage Therapist Prometric exam, and its published blueprint splits the paper across 6 areas: anatomy, physiological effects and contraindications of massage, basic techniques of massage, physical evaluation skills, management of diseases by massage and management of sport conditions by massage. That list is the syllabus — questions are written to those headings from 12 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 50% pass mark works out at roughly 75 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 Massage Therapist 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 200 explained questions cut to the same headings as the MAS5511 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, 50%-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, DOH in Abu Dhabi, SCFHS in Saudi Arabia, QCHP in Qatar, NHRA in Bahrain and OMSB in Oman all license the Massage Therapist title off a Prometric-delivered MCQ paper, and the overlap between them is substantial. What differs is the pass mark, the classification tier they will grade you into, and how many attempts they allow — not the medicine.

Massage Therapist exam — frequently asked questions

What does exam code MAS5511 cover?

MAS5511 is the Massage Therapist 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 Massage Therapist 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 MAS5511?

50% under the DHA guideline — roughly 75 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 Massage Therapist exam?

The published blueprint names 6 areas: Anatomy, Physiological Effects and Contraindications of Massage, Basic Techniques of Massage, Physical Evaluation Skills, Management of Diseases by Massage and Management of Sport Conditions by Massage. 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, DOH, SCFHS, QCHP, NHRA and OMSB each license the Massage Therapist title off a Prometric-delivered MCQ paper built on the same content. 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 do I need before I can book MAS5511?

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.

Solid. A couple of image-based questions could use better resolution but nothing that changes the answer. Passed DHA tech exam.

The explanations after each question are what sold me. It's not just A/B/C/D - you actually understand WHY the answer is right. Cleared MOH Sharjah last month.

Best MCQ prep for GCC allied health hands down. Chapters are digestible, and unlimited retries meant I could grind the hard ones without anxiety.

The 3-month plan was enough for a repeater like me. Skimmed the strong chapters, hammered the weak ones. Passed.

Affordable pricing that still delivered quality. Coming from Sudan the currency conversion was important - the checkout showed my local price which built trust.

Worth every dirham. The mobile experience is smooth - I revised on the metro every morning for 3 weeks and passed SCFHS on the first try.

The dentistry bank is stronger than anything I found on YouTube channels. Especially the perio and prostho sections - very high yield.

Coming from an Indian nursing background, the GCC-specific patient-safety and legal-framework questions were the hardest. This bank covered them properly.
