Hi Ashad
The syllabus break up (number of questions on each topic) for your specialty can be obtained by writing to OMSB (8764muscat@omsb.org). They also mention reference books in their reply.

Please note:
1. Passing OMSB exam by itself does not mean your application is accepted. You need to find a sponsor to appear for Viva within 6 months after you pass the written test.
2. The acceptance score (pass marks) is 60%
3. The written exam results are valid for only 6 months. The MOH licence is valid for 2 years.
3. All GP applicants (who have experience of 3 years and above) must schedule OMSB Family Medicine exam not General Practitioner.
