Allergy and immunology Online Practice test

Test 1 trains you to recognize and classify hypersensitivity reactions (Types I–IV) by mechanism, timing, and classic examples.
It checks whether you can link key immune players to each type—IgE/mast cells for immediate Type I reactions versus T-cell–mediated delayed Type IV reactions—and choose the correct category for common clinical scenarios (e.g., anaphylaxis/urticaria vs contact dermatitis or tuberculin skin test).

Test 2 checks your ability to recognize allergic rhinitis & conjunctivitis and manage them at an easy clinical level: identifying typical symptoms (itching, sneezing, clear rhinorrhea, watery/itchy eyes), common triggers (seasonal pollen vs year-round indoor allergens), and basic differentiation from viral colds.
It also trains first-step workup and treatment choices—when to use allergy testing (skin testing or specific IgE) and which therapies are usually first-line for symptom control (e.g., intranasal corticosteroids for nasal symptoms; antihistamines for itch/sneeze and eye symptoms).

Test 3 checks your understanding of allergic/atopic asthma: recognizing typical symptom patterns (episodic wheeze, cough, chest tightness), common triggers (allergens, exercise, viral infections), and how asthma is confirmed with variable/reversible airflow limitation (e.g., improvement after a bronchodilator on spirometry).
It also trains basic treatment logic—distinguishing quick-relief vs controller therapy and identifying that inflammation-focused control (inhaled corticosteroid–based therapy) is central to reducing symptoms and exacerbation risk.

Test 4 checks your ability to recognize and manage atopic dermatitis (eczema) at an easy clinical level: key features (itching, dry skin, typical distribution, chronic relapsing course), common complications (skin infection from scratching), and “atopic” associations (eczema with asthma/allergic rhinitis).
It also trains first-line care choices—daily moisturization/skin-barrier care, when to use topical anti-inflammatories for flares (especially topical steroids), and when steroid-sparing options (like calcineurin inhibitors) are useful for sensitive areas.

Test 5 checks your ability to recognize IgE-mediated food allergy and identify anaphylaxis early: typical timing after ingestion, common symptom clusters (skin/mucosal, respiratory, GI, cardiovascular), and red flags that can occur even without hives.
It also trains basic emergency management decisions—knowing that epinephrine is first-line, the preferred injection site, and the need for urgent follow-up/observation after treatment—plus core diagnostic concepts like sensitization vs true clinical allergy and when an oral food challenge is used.
