Cardiology Finals 2026

Section 2 · Single best answer

58:12Q4 of 60

Clinical scenario

A 58-year-old man reports central chest pain. During the cardiac cycle, the left ventricle contracts and chamber pressure rises rapidly.

Blood is ejected into the aorta only once ventricular pressure exceeds aortic pressure, forcing the aortic valve open.

The exam lifecycle

One platform, from first question to final result

Every stage of the exam lifecycle is built in — no bolted-on proctoring, no exporting to mark elsewhere, no stitching results back together.

  • 15 question types. From single best answer and cloze to spreadsheet, coding, audio, video and image hotspot questions.

  • Question banks and tagging. Organise items by subject, topic, subtopic, skill and difficulty, and reuse them across exams.

  • Unique randomised papers. Dynamic rules build a different paper for every candidate from the same blueprint, reducing collusion.

Specialist assessments

Exams most platforms can’t run

Synap is purpose-built for assessment — not a quiz builder with an exam mode. That shows most in the formats other platforms turn away.

Delivery models

Deliver exams wherever your candidates are

Remote, in-person, hybrid or always-on — the same exam, question bank and results pipeline works across every delivery model.

Beyond exam day

The learning that leads up to the exam

Exams are the final step, not the whole journey. The same question banks that power your formal assessments can drive practice, revision and coursework — so candidates arrive prepared and you see progress long before results day.

That’s the advantage of one platform for formative and summative assessment: one item bank, one candidate experience, one picture of performance.

Explore exam preparation

  • Adaptive exam preparation

    Spaced Learning and mastery tracking build personalised practice from your question banks.

  • Practice & mock exams

    Realistic timed mocks with the same player, tools and marking as the real thing.

  • Formative & summative

    Low-stakes checks and high-stakes finals share one item bank and one analytics model.

  • Assignments & coursework

    Mixed-media assignments with deadlines, rubric marking and moderation alongside exams.

Fits your stack

Plug exams into the tools you already use

Synap slots into your existing systems rather than replacing them. Enrol candidates from your CRM, launch exams from your LMS, and push results wherever they need to go — automatically.

White-labelling and sub-portals mean the whole experience carries your brand, on your domain.

Explore integrations

  • Open API & webhooks

    Automate enrolment, delivery and results with a documented REST API and event webhooks.

  • LTI 1.3 & LMS

    Launch exams and sync grades from Moodle, Canvas and Blackboard — listed on the Blackboard App Center.

  • Single sign-on

    SAML, Auth0, JWT and LTI SSO, so candidates and staff use the credentials they already have.

  • White-label & sub-portals

    Your logo, colours and domain, with segregated sub-portals for clients or departments.

What our customers say

  • Couldn't recommend it any higher. We've had over 500 students pass their exam as a result of Synap's platform. Top notch — students love it and the support from Synap has been invaluable.

    Jamie B

    Driver Services Manager | FreeNow

  • Previously we were only able to offer our exams, in person at a select testing location, once a year, now we are able to offer our exams monthly! The product is easy to use, easy to set up, affordable, and customer service is so fast and helpful.

    Summer W

    Coordinator | ABIPP

  • I am never going back to writing a paper-based exam and I will not use another examination provider. This team got every single student through the exam with a professional attitude, support and kindness.
