RVS practice questions - frequently asked questions

Plain answers about how RVS Exam Prep works: the exam, the questions, pricing, the free trial, and what you actually get.

No - and you should be wary of any site claiming otherwise. Every question here is original, written to mirror the style, difficulty, and judgment the real RVS exam tests. Each one comes with a plain-language explanation of why the right answer is right and the others aren't.

The RVS exam spans 7 domains: Maintaining Patient Care and Safety (11% of the exam); Applying Principles of Physics and Hemodynamics (15% of the exam); Performing Abdominal/Visceral Examinations (10% of the exam); Performing Extracranial/Intracranial Examinations (20% of the exam); Performing Arterial Examinations of the Upper and Lower Extremities (22% of the exam); Performing Venous Examinations of the Upper and Lower Extremities (19% of the exam); Performing Hemodialysis Examinations (3% of the exam). Every practice question on this site is tagged to one of these domains.

The domains are not weighted equally on the exam. By share of the marks: Performing Arterial Examinations of the Upper and Lower Extremities 22%; Performing Extracranial/Intracranial Examinations 20%; Performing Venous Examinations of the Upper and Lower Extremities 19%; Applying Principles of Physics and Hemodynamics 15%; Maintaining Patient Care and Safety 11%; Performing Abdominal/Visceral Examinations 10%; Performing Hemodialysis Examinations 3%.

The RVS exam has 170 questions and is completed in 2 hours 50 minutes. Our timed practice mirrors that length and pacing, so exam day feels familiar.
