Learn it where you will practise it.
Question banks in public health, written for students in Oman and the Gulf. The cases are local because the work will be: a well in an outbreak, a heatwave in Muscat, a surveillance system you may one day sit inside.
Question bank · 01
Applied Epidemiology
Disease frequency, study designs, association and impact, bias and confounding, screening, outbreak investigation, causality, and the practice of epidemiology in Oman and the GCC.

Answers, with the working
Practice mode marks each question the moment you answer and gives you the reasoning, not just the letter. Timed mode holds the feedback until the end, then hands back the full working for everything you missed. Nothing to sign up for; your progress stays on your own device.
What comes next
One bank at a time, and only when it is good enough to study from unsupervised. In the order I intend to write them:
- BiostatisticsThe natural twin of epidemiology, and the one students most often ask for. Confidence intervals, hypothesis tests, regression, and what a p-value does not tell you.
- Environmental HealthFood, air, water, heat, dust, and climate as determinants of survival in a warming region.
- Health Policy & SystemsHow systems are financed, governed, and how they fail — including when they are shattered.
- Social & Behavioural HealthTrust, family, faith, migration, and meaning as forces acting on health.
If you are teaching from any of these and want a bank sooner, or you have found an error in one, write to me — corrections from students are the most useful post I receive.
