Common Questions About the Medical Council of Canada MCCQE Exam
The MCCQE exam, officially known as Medical Council of Canada MCCQE Part 1, is the Medical Council of Canada test that leads to the MCCQE Part 1 certification at the Intermediate level. Passing it validates the skills employers expect from a certified professional. It is also associated with related credentials such as LMCC (Licentiate of the Medical Council of Canada).
The MCCQE exam contains 230 questions, and you have 390 minutes to complete them. Work out your per-question pace before test day, and flag slow items instead of stalling on them — time pressure, not knowledge, sinks many first attempts. Timed mock exams in the Actual4Exams test engines are the most reliable way to build that rhythm.
The passing score for the MCCQE exam is 439 (on a scale of 300-600), and the official registration fee is CAD 1,500. If you miss the mark, a retake means paying the full fee again, so book your seat only when you are ready. A practical benchmark: score consistently above the passing line on timed practice tests before scheduling the real exam.
Candidates must be medical school graduates from an accredited medical school (Canadian or International). Can be taken after completing medical school. Maximum of 4 attempts allowed (exams taken before 2018 do not count).
