How it works
- Press Start today’s challenge. Turn your sound on.
- Questions 1, 2, 4 and 5: listen, then type the medical word. Spelling must be exact.
- Question 3: read a Reading Part A question and choose the text it comes from.
- See your score, then share it in your WhatsApp or Telegram group with one tap.
Why spelling and Part A matching
In Listening Part A you write words you hear into case notes, and common medical words must be spelt correctly. In Reading Part A you have 15 minutes for 20 questions across four short texts, so knowing quickly which text holds the answer saves time. A few questions a day keeps both skills warm between full practice tests.

Play it with your study group
Post your result in the group each day. Everyone has the same questions, so you can compare without giving away the answers: the shared line shows only coloured squares and a score.
Questions candidates ask
Is the daily challenge free?
Yes. There is no sign-up and no payment. Open the page, answer 5 questions and see your score.
When does a new challenge start?
At midnight Sydney time. Everyone who opens the page on the same Sydney date gets the same 5 questions in the same order, so a study group can compare scores.
What kinds of questions are there?
Four medical words to spell from audio, like the note completion in Listening Part A, and one Reading Part A match: decide which of four short texts a piece of information comes from. British and American spellings are both accepted.
What does the shared result show?
Only the challenge number, a row of green and red squares, your score out of 5 and the page link, for example “OETAce Daily #12 🟩🟩🟥🟩🟩 4/5”. It does not show your name, email or answers.
How does the streak work?
Finish the challenge on consecutive days to build a streak. It is saved in this browser only, so clearing the browser data or switching phones starts it again.
Where do the questions come from?
From the free OETAce practice drills: the medical spelling dictation and the Reading Part A speed scan. All of it is original practice material. For full timed practice, take a free Listening or Reading test.
